We go through a lot in our lives. Folks say mean things to us, we find ourselves in the middle of controversies, we get into arguments, and we go through periods of mild to serious upheavals. And all this makes us really upset! Should we reject these unpleasant experiences as completely useless and forget them as soon as we can? Or would it be better to be open and receptive to another way of thinking—a way that would encourage us to listen, to learn, and to take another step toward becoming our “co-created best”?

Most of us have heard this quote. It’s interesting that both the identity of its original speaker (many, but not all, attribute it to Samuel Johnson) as well as its meaning are subject to disagreement. This episode looks at how, in a metaphysical way, this quote could become true if we misapply the Law of Attraction and rely on our intentions alone to construct our path and to determine our destination.

As a follow-up to this past week’s program, we ask the question: How can we prove the existence of God? It sounds like a tall order, doesn’t it? But in reality, proving the existence of God in our lives is very easy! And once we understand the logic of how we gather this evidence, we will be even more convinced that God is real, that a relationship with the Higher Power of our Understanding is essential, and that a co-created life is the only way to live!

Recently, there has been a great deal of discussion that beliefs and movements which do not recognize a Higher Power, such as atheism and secular humanism, are a fine substitute for a relationship with God. But are they really? Consider the electricity which comes into our homes to connect with our appliances, computers and televisions. When we plug into that source of power, our existence is enhanced in so many ways; alternatively, without that flow of energy, we find ourselves in a very different, much more challenging world. “Why God?” Please join us as we answer this question by examining these “create on your own” approaches and dispelling any ideas that these avenues could ever guide us to our “highest and best good.”

It’s spring! It’s nearly Easter! The theme of the season is that of rebirth. But it’s not just for baby chicks and budding trees … It’s for us too! But what if you just don’t feel like you are connecting with the joy of the renewal which surrounds you? What if you don’t seem to be able to escape the attitudes and behaviors that keep you “creating on your own”? Join us as we discuss why your path to co-creation may be blocked and how together we can roll away the stone that stands in your way.

On occasions when we experience off-center, creating on our own feelings or those “low” moments, we’re sometimes not sure what we can use for a quick remedy to return us to a co-creative space. It’s gratitude! This episode is devoted to demonstrating how acknowledgement and gratefulness can quickly transform our attitude and outlook, so that we can think more clearly, listen more intently, and act more harmoniously.

The Law of Co-Creation, through the use of the Universe Responding Spiritual Model for Life, provides us with the formula so that we may always achieve our “co-created best.” But where does the concept of “sin” fit in to all of this? Or does it? How can we reposition this age-old, fear-based idea to help us learn and grow in our vibrant, positive New Thought approach? Tune in to learn how to extract from the concept of “sin” some surprising—and useful—tools to stay on the path of co-creation.

Are we afraid to love? Is commitment to a person, a community, or even to a Higher Power a scary idea? How can we tell when our desire to love or to be loved has become adversely affected by an “I WANT” approach, rather than through the Truth found in the “I AM”? In this episode, we explore how fear—a “create on our own” impulse—can destroy love and cause us to question our ability to be loved. But we will also share solutions inspired by The Law of Co-Creation to kick fear out of our consciousness once and for all and make plenty of room for love for ourselves, for others, and for God.

Prejudice and discrimination are two concepts that can absolutely destroy our ability to co-create. Not only is Oneness and Interconnectedness with others and with God severely damaged, but these distorted views of and actions toward others encourage destructive thoughts, block our abilities to hear messages of guidance, stifle opportunities to act harmoniously, and remove much of the gratitude that gives meaning to life. Our program examines how we can combat these feelings and impulses in ourselves and how we can each increase our contribution to the evolution of a just and fair society—a society in which co-creation can thrive!

Are you ready for a change in your relationship, your finances, your health or your attitude? On this, our 100th episode of our Universe Responding program, we review how to put the The Law of Co-Creation to work in our lives, using the Universe Responding Spiritual Model for Life as its engine, so we can make the changes that we feel guided to make—the changes that will lead us to the joy of experiencing our “co-created best.”
