Living A Spiritual Life

​The Inner Journey Home of the soul
is rooted in
The Love of Truth & Truth of Love

In the Wisdom Spiritual Tradition, all that exists is in truth divinely beautiful and good.

We are here to receive, respect, and honor you as the Divine Presence you are.

We are here to converse with you
not convert you.

We are here to join with you
​on the journey of your soul.
​
We realize there is nothing more sacred
than for you to discover
the gracious beauty of your soul.


Faith Explorations - Curious Souls Gather to Read & Reflect

Picture
Gather with others to explore the questions of your searching mind and wondering heart. 

We read books aloud from authors such as Cynthia Bourgeault, Eckhart Tolle, Richard Rohr, Rumi, Pema Chodron, Jack Spong, and many more. We find that reading aloud slows the tempo, and hearing other voices enables the writings to come alive in new and surprising ways. In many ways the books are there as a "launching pad" for conversation about what resonates with our souls; what questions arise; what matters and what doesn't. 
​
Here we gather not to gain information, although we do, but to be curious and to hold an environment where every question is honored and explored.

​Thursdays from 10:30 to 11:30 on Zoom.
