Warm greetings and a happy Labor Day to you all! To our Jewish spiritual community members, I wish a joyous Rosh Hashana and a good final sealing on Yom Kippur. Our theme for the month of September is “Practices for Living in Spiritual Alignment.” I look forward to sharing with you how making the commitment to live in alignment with Spirit’s Universal Principles results in an ever-deepening fulfillment of each of our unique soul-journeys.

The September 20, 2026 topic is The Art of Patience.  There are times and circumstances in which we need to be reminded to be more patient with ourselves, not to mention others! Remember the phrase, “Patience is a virtue”? First written in 1360, it is as applicable today as it was then. In this age of instant gratification, being patient allows us to be mindful, breathe lighter, release stress, and respond with grace and ease.

The September 13, 2026 topic is Peace, Poise and Power.  We evolve our inherent self-empowerment when we add peace and poise to the equation. All three of these inner qualities are interconnected, building and ever-expanding one another. When we activate them in our everyday life circumstances, we act with clarity, discernment, integrity and compassion.

The September 6, 2026 topic is The Principle of Prayer.  The principle of prayer is activated and fulfilled when we align our mind, heart and soul in oneness with Spirit, our Creator Source. Today, as we advance with clarity and joy on our path, we will explore and embody the prayer principle in Ernest Holmes’s teaching that “the answer to the prayer is in the prayer when it is prayed.”

Loving greetings and welcome to August, a month that in many spiritual and cultural traditions holds a distinct mystique because it bridges the peak of summer and the first whispers of autumn.

The August 30, 2026 topic is Do You Believe in Magic?  Cognitive scientists and psychologists suggest that the human brain is naturally wired for magical thinking. Today we will bring our magical theme home in rich, deep and practical application. In fact, today we will be reminded that we are formed and informed by both spiritually intuitive and mentally inherent qualities.

The August 23, 2026 topic is Trust in What Can Be Trusted.  Trust–both the noun and verb–brings relaxation to our mind, heart, and spirit. The power of trust cannot be overstated. It is up to each of us to cultivate the beauty of trust and directly experience how it opens the floodgates to knowing that our life is continuously co-created with the full, unconditional support of Spirit.

The August 16, 2026 topic is Permission and Persistence.  Permission and persistence play critical roles in our ability to create and live a life of magic. Today we will discern which of these qualities stops creativity in its tracks, and how we may uplevel our practice of which quality magnifies our capacity to live, move and have our being in the pure magic of Spirit.

The August 9, 2026 topic is Embracing Enchantment.  When the word “enchantment” first entered the English language in 1374, it was considered to hold the actual power to alter thought. In the practice of spiritual mind treatment, we enter a state of inner enchantment in union and communion with Spirit, in its embrace of unconditional Love and Law. No further proof required!

The August 2, 2026 topic is The Courage for Discovery.  A question posed at the outset of Big Magic is, “Do you have the courage to bring forth the treasures hidden in you?” Join us today as we apply the inner courage that Spirit implanted within each of us to uncover the depths of our inner being for an authentic response to this question.

May you and your loved ones have a very fun-filled and safe July 4th, our 250th Independence Day celebration! I encourage us all to consider how this day is also an outer symbol of our independence from inner limitations, from a sense of separation from our Source. My prayer is that each of us makes a heartfelt declaration of our oneness with infinite Spirit and moves forward with mindful resilence, knowing who we are and Whose we are as we participate in this month’s theme, “Stand Firm in Spiritual Realization.”

The July 26, 2026 topic is Practical, Positive, Passionate, Personal.  Today we will explore four attributes of the Science of Mind teachings and how the practicality, positivity, passion, and personal practice of them combine to provide us an expansive relationship with Spirit, ourselves, and our world. As Ernest Holmes described, “The Science of Mind is intensely practical. Each one of us should learn to become a conscious user of its power.” Are you ready for this level of inner intimacy with your God-self?

The July 19, 2026 topic is Never Underestimate the Power of Spirit.  We cannot apply human reasoning to comprehend the omniscient, omnipotent, omnipresent nature of Spirit. Nevertheless, in ways beyond the language of the mind, Spirit and its laws governing the universe are doing their perfect work on our behalf. This is where faith enters. Not blind belief, but factual evidence provided through faith in Spirit’s power and presence as it manifests in all aspects of our life.
