Featured Talks
Radical Gratitude with Rev. John Riley
The attitude of thankfulness and gratitude causes one to open his consciousness to the inflow of more blessings. This attitude of mind causes one’s blessings to increase. The thankful person always attracts more and more of the thing for which he is grateful. I give thanks for every evidence of the divine flow of Good in my life.
One Voice for Unity with Rev. John Riley
There is order in the universe and in every cell,
From the colors of a rainbow to patters in a shell.
There is harmony and rhythm and music to be heard.
Let us stop and listen to the message of the word.
The Art of Abundance:
Abundant Living
with Rev. John Riley
You are a richly endowed expression of an opulent Universe. There is always a sufficiency to do the things you want and need to do. Be a conscious expression of Good.
A Center of Spirit with Rev. John Riley
There is only One Presence and One Power active in the Universe and in my life, God the Omnipotence. We come together to share this experience and to awaken to our spiritual magnificence!
Seeds Of Intention with Rev. John Riley
Planting seeds of goodness and acting with the highest intention of my heart, I bring balance to my life. My actions spring from interconnection, kinship, and love.
Circuit Breaker For The Soul with Rev. John Riley
Living in our fast-paced world filled with the barrage of news, social media, and the demands of work, family, and even retirement, we may feel off-balance at times. When that happens, it’s time to flip our internal circuit breaker and reground ourselves in Source.
Blessing You with Rev. John Riley
Oneness is reality. The boundary between ourselves and other people and between ourselves and Nature, is illusion. A blessing is an imparting of spiritual good, and to be a blessing is to be a beacon that shines forward hope, faith, and wisdom. I allow the inner light of Spirit to guide me that I may bring light to those around me.
Make Up Your Mind with Rev. John Riley
The “I” that thinks has the capacity to think what it wants to think, and I decide to think positively and creatively. I get the wrinkles out of my mind. I get myself thinking organized and orderly.I make up my mind, then I go out and face the world, secure in knowing that no matter what happens, I can be on top of it.
A Fuller Life with Rev. John Riley
The movement of Spirit from within me out into my words and actions is an expression of my spirituality. When I am fully experiencing the reality of my spiritual nature, my life is indeed full – full with the presence of God and full with the expression of the sacred attributes. Expressing my spirituality, I give more in life and receive more from life.
…Now What? with Rev. John Riley
When filled with anxiety or concern, when a conclusion is reached and the next steps seem unclear, I make a choice to let go of the fear and embrace the divine light that shines the way from the inside out. “Casting all your anxiety upon him, because he careth for you” 1 Peter 5:7.
