2010 Theme: Ancient Teachings for Today
In today’s
modern world, with its fast-paced scientific discoveries and technological
advances, we might wonder whether sacred, ancient teachings have
any relevance for us. In fact, they have a great deal of relevance
and can help ground us in Spiritual Truth and Reality when the world
seems to be spinning around us. This month, we will explore the
ancient teachings offered to Moses on Mt. Sinai, which we have come
to know as the Ten Commandments.
Talk
1 - Breaking Free and Soaring High
After
exploring the true intention behind the ten “commandments,”
today we will examine the first two and discover their depth of
meaning, which allows us to break free of unfulfilling paths and
habits and sour high with the knowledge that God is our refuge and
our strength.
Talk
2 - Creating Joy
As
we look at commandments 3 and 4, we will reawaken to the sacredness
of our relationship with God and the power of spiritual renewal
to create joy in our lives.
Talk
3 - It’s a Matter of Honor
Commandments
5 and 6 offer profound counsel for honoring all life.
Talk
4 - Reaching for Higher Ground
When
we live in integrity in all ways, we are living in alignment with
spiritual law. Commandments 7 and 8 both speak to a life lived in
integrity.
Talk
5 - Divine Contentment
As
we conclude our exploration of the deeper meaning of the ten commandments,
the final two offer us ways to move into Divine Contentment.
