September 1: What Makes Life Balanced?

Reasoning by Pastor Sherry Petro-Surdel                                                                                                                                                                                              Pastor Sherry will be introducing the idea of balance in our lives and in the world. Without the right amount of balance, one could fall off a bike, or even fall off the tightrope that we walk every day.  Without a balance in our checkbook of life, we could end up with overdrafts.  And just what does an overdraft in life look like?  Click the link below to listen to and/or download Sherry's Reasoning:

August 25: Different Perspectives That Changed the World

Reasoning by Pastor Sherry Petro-Surdel

  Our world has forever been changed because of men and women who were willing to take on a different perspective. When we are willing to see things differently, things become different. There are those we know by name and there are those that were behind the scenes, rocking the cradle, creating the space for change to occur. We all have the potential to make a difference. What could hold us back is a limited perspective of ourselves, others, God. This Reasoning will encourage and inspire us to be the best version of our highest vision. It's All a matter of perspective. Click the link below to listen to and/or download Sherry's Reasoning:

August 18, 2013 Viktor Frankl

 The Perspective of Viktor Frankl
(Reasoning by Rev. Salvatore Sapienza)  
Viktor Frankl survived the Auchwitz concentration camp during the Holocaust, though his wife, brother and parents did not.  During his years in captivity, Frankl did not go to a place of fear. Rather, he learned to transcend suffering by changing his perspective. In his book on his experiences at Auchwitz (entitled Man's Search for Meaning), Frankl writes, "When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves." Come learn about this extraordinary man and how his words of wisdom can change our lives.  Click the link below to listen to and/or download Sal's Reasoning:

July 28: Life, Liberty & the Pursuit of Happiness

Reasoning by Rev. Salvatore Sapienza

July is the month in which Americans celebrate our Independence.  The World English Dictionary defines the word "liberty" as "the power of choosing and thinking for oneself."  How does this apply to our Spiritual Liberation?  Rev. Michael Beckwith says that Spiritual Liberation is "unlocking the capacity within us to set us free to become more ourselves."  Come learn these unlocking mechanisms and discover the keys to becoming spiritually free.  Click the link below to listen to and/or download Sal's Reasoning:

July 21: Living in the Now

Reasoning by Pastor Sherry Petro-Surdel

The foresight of our founding fathers taught us that what we do and create NOW will affect the future, not just our future but the future of all who will come after us.  Freedom comes from living in the present moment in more ways than one can imagine.  Pastor Sherry will go deeper into the ancient concept of Living in the Now.  We will be looking at this wisdom from a little different perspective.  Come learn how living in the now creates freedom that affects the future.  Click the link below to listen to and/or download Sherry's Reasoning:
