October 26: The Resurrection of the Christ Within
Reasoning by Pastor Sherry Petro-Surdel
Paramahansa Yogananda, founder of the Self-Realization fellowship in Los Angeles, wrote two volumes on the The Resurrection of the Christ Within. His intention was to present the real Christ teachings as they pertain to becoming Christ-like by resurrecting the Eternal Christ within. He reminds us that Christ consciousness as well as the Bible do not belong exclusively to any one religion. Truth is meant for the blessing and uplifting of the entire human race. “As the Christ Consciousness is universal, so does Jesus Christ belong to all.”

Join us for PALM Sunday. Did you ever play the children's game Telephone? One person tells someone next to her something, then that person tells the next. On down the line this goes until it ends with the last person trying to repeat what the first person said. I think most of us know how well this goes. Imagine playing this game with people who speak a different language, who come from a completely different cultural background and decades pass between each person passing the message. Unfortunately, this is exactly what happened with Jesus's message. So how can we really know what the message was, what it was meant to convey and what it might mean in this era? Come reason with us the possibilities.

February 23rd: The Spirituality of Winter
Reasoning by Rev. Salvatore Sapienza
"There's an appointed time for everything" (Ecclesiastes 3). Though it's easy for us to resonate with the spirituality of Spring ("New Life!"), Summer ("Light!") and Fall ("Harvest!"), many of us have difficulty with the Winter. So many of us want to flee to warm weather destinations during the winter months, but what if the reason for the season is to teach us to stay put and hibernate? There's much we can learn about ourselves as we surrender to the blessings of Winter. Come join us as we celebrate the Gifts of Winter. Click the link below to listen to Sal's Reasoning:

"There's an appointed time for everything" (Ecclesiastes 3). Though it's easy for us to resonate with the spirituality of Spring ("New Life!"), Summer ("Light!") and Fall ("Harvest!"), many of us have difficulty with the Winter. So many of us want to flee to warm weather destinations during the winter months, but what if the reason for the season is to teach us to stay put and hibernate? There's much we can learn about ourselves as we surrender to the blessings of Winter. Come join us as we celebrate the Gifts of Winter. Click the link below to listen to Sal's Reasoning:

February 9: Lessons & Blessings
Reasoning by Pastor Sherry Petro-Surdel
Life is all about learning our lessons and seeing and being a blessing. Hellen Keller said, "Life is a succession of lessons which must be lived to be understood."

January 19: "The Unlikely Millionaire"
Reasoning by Rev. Salvatore Sapienza
"When I find myself in a financial wilderness, it is because I am preparing for a greater abundance than I have ever known before." These words were one of the affirmations spoken by Catherine Ponder. In 1958, when America was in a recession, members of Catherine Ponder's Unity Church congregation were asking her for guidance on how to get through it. She started giving prosperity classes, teaching that prosperity was first and foremost a state of mind; a mindset of lack could only manifest negative results.

January 12: The Energy of Money & Spiritual Laws of Prosperity

Her principles (detailed in her book Four Spiritual Laws of Prosperity) took her from debt and poverty knocking at her front door to becoming one of the most successful teachers of Prosperity Principles.
