Lessons from Unity Cedar Rapids

As a follow up to her recent series, Rev. Debra will explore how we respond to change with intention and commitment.  This causes circumstances to unfold in good order for the highest and best for all concerned.

Rev. Debra continues her exploration of Finding Yourself in Transition by Rev. Robert Brumet.  This week, she reminds us that each season of life is to be honored, including the time in the wilderness --or as Rev. Brumet terms it, "The Void."  He writes: "In order to become who we really are, we must let go of who we are not... The Void is a passageway to truly becoming alive and fully awake" [p. 89]

Using the gospel account of the "Loaves and Fishes" in Luke, Rev. Debra focuses on the multiplying power of gratitude and thanksgiving.

In Spiritual Economics, Eric Butterworth writes: "...gratitude is not for God...You are not obligated to thank God for your life, for your job, for your prosperity.  However, giving thanks is an important state of consciousness that keeps you in an awareness of oneness with divine flow."  Join Rev. Debra and unleash the power of gratitude in your life. 

Eric Butterworth writes in Spiritual Economics: 

 "The word 'affluence' is an overworked word in our time, usually implying cars and houses and baubles of all kinds.  Its literal meaning is 'an abundance flow'... and when we are consciously centered in the universal flow, we experience inner direction and the unfoldment of creative energy." 

Join Rev. Debra as we celebrate the abundance consciousness of UCR and explore the essential elements of the abundant life, which include well-being, joyful flourishing, purposeful living, and peace of mind.

Rev. Debra will invite you into a larger vision for your life, your relationships, your community, and the world.

The power of discerning a larger vision!

Let's celebrate summer with joy as we learn what it means to live'easy.' 

Join Rev. Debra and learn about the divine idea of freedom as we celebrate our nation's birthday.  She will answer the question:  "Are we free from certain conditions, or are we free for one another?"

Using the work of Michael Singer, author of the Untethered Soul, Rev. Debra will lead you in a journey toward self-realization --- moving beyond the thoughts, feelings, and habits that keep you stuck—so you can heal the pain of the past and let your spirit soar.

Join Rev. Debra as she takes a deep dive into our opening statement: “There is only One Presence and One Power in my life and in the universe, God the Good, Omnipotent."  

What does this statement really mean and how can it help us navigate our spiritual journey?

On this Memorial Day weekend, we remember those who have graced our lives for a season.  Rev. Debra will share here own stories of grief and loss, and invite you into acceptance and healing.
