2010 Theme - Words of the Wise
In
Religious Science/New Thought, we are so very fortunate to have
a teaching that was not only developed by deep and mystical thinkers
such as Ernest Holmes and the Fillmores, but was founded on the
ideas of the deep and mystical thinkers of the ages. During the
month of August, we will explore some of their ideas – and
Rev. ____________ will add her/his own two cents worth as well!
Join us each week as we explore the Words of the Wise.
August
Talk 1 – The Wisdom of Being
We
have a phrase in New Thought/Religious Science to describe who we
are, which usually has a profound impact on us the first time we
hear it -- and then we quickly forget it! It is: We are Spiritual
Beings having a Human Experience. We were spiritual beings before
we entered this earth plane, and we will be spiritual beings after
it is over. The human experience is truly secondary, and the quality
of the human experience is directly related to how often we remember
to come from our place of “Spiritual Beingness.” Today,
we remember.

Talk 2 – The Wisdom of Knowing
A
very wise man once said: “Ye shall know the Truth and the
Truth shall set you free.” He did not say: “Ye shall
have a strong belief in the Truth” NOR “Ye shall hope
you know the Truth” NOR “Ye shall pray to God that the
Truth will set you free.” No, he very clearly and quite emphatically
said: “Ye shall KNOW the Truth and the Truth shall set you
free!” Today we look at: What is knowing, what knowing will
set us free and, finally, how can we know?
August
Talk 3 – The Wisdom of Healing
One of the great messages of the New Thought/Religious Science movement
is that you can be healed. Ernest Holmes once wrote: “We believe
in the healing of the sick through the power of this mind.”
Today, will look at the wisdom of Healing and how the power of this
mind can work through us to return us to our inherent wholeness.
August
Talk 4 – The Wisdom of Succeeding
Here is what we will NOT explore today: “10 Steps to Success,”
“The Top 5 Winning Attitudes” or “The 7 Ways to
Turn Failure Into Success.” No, today we will look at the
deepest wisdom of succeeding, and you just might be surprised to
find out what it is.
August
Talk 5 – The Wisdom of Imagination
Today, as we bring our month of “Words to the Wise”
to a close, we will explore in depth the wisdom of igniting our
imagination.
