About the event
The 5th Unity Principle states that we must live the truth that we know. We must decide how to interpret the world around us, including scripture, to aid us in unfolding and exploring that truth. You are invited to join us as we explore the Christian Scriptures from a Metaphysical vantage point. For example: Jesus declares, “I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener” (John 15:1) “Remain in me, and I will remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me” (John 15:4). “He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful” (John 15:2)
Gardner and Garden metaphors and images work well for me. It brings about the feeling of cooperation. When tending a garden, one must pay attention to lots and lots of things: the amount of sun and water, the care of pollinators and nutrition of the soil, and the diseases that may crop up in the plants, to be in tune with the insect, reptile, amphibian, and mammal life present. It reminds me that nothing works in a vacuum that we are all in this together, and even the groundhog that continually tries to dig its way under the fence to the fruit has its place. It also reminds me that healing all that needs to be healed and letting go of all that no longer serves helps me and the whole garden.
All discussions are after the regular Sunday gathering at 11:00 AM. August 11th at 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM September 8th at 12:30 PM-1:30 PM October 13th at 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM November 10 at 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM December 8 at 12:30 PM- 1:30 PM
We received a grant for several Metaphysical Bibles from truthunity.net that we will share for these discussions.
