Podcast appearances and mentions of christ presence

In this episode, Rev. Carol shares a spiritual interpretation of the Christmas story. The story tells of the birth of the Christ Presence on Earth in the baby Jesus, but it also tells us of the birth of the Christ consciousness in us. The Christmas story combines the accounts in Matthew chapters 1 & 2 and Luke chapters 1 & 2. It has been told for over 2000 years and we see it depicted in nativity scenes in homes, churches and cities. Some people believe the account to be true. Others believe it is a birth story, created to exalt the person of Jesus. Still others believe it is 100% story. Beyond all that, what does it mean for us? This is a condensed retelling of the Christmas Eve service that Rev. Carol led at the Unity church she founded. She shares metaphysical interpretations of all the key elements in the story. Every character is a part of you! Let this story come alive in you this Christmas season! © the spiritual forum 2023

“We can not solve our problems with the same level of thinking that created them” ― Albert Einstein If we are seething in anger and trying to justify by pointing our fingers at who's wrong and who's right, we can't be used by the Light.  We are contributing to the problem.   My heart has been breaking over what we are still doing to each other. I'm allowing myself time to cry. I'm being guided to practice forgiveness for all wars and the trauma that they created, not only for humans but for nature (who hold so much of the trauma for us) as well.   Our job is to do our best to be an open channel for the light. I keep hearing the phrase, MASTER-UP. This is why we are here at this time to go forward and to use the powerful Christ Presence within, the I AM Presence, to send Light into the darkness.   In today's Morning Light Meditation Saint Germain, the Avatar for this Age of Divine Justice and Freedom, will be taking us through a Light filled meditation today.    Not only will you be left feeling elated and renewed, but you'll be also ready to direct the Light to heal the world.   “Light is the Supreme Perfection and Control of all things. Contemplation and adoration of the ‘Light' compels illumination to take place where you direct It.” ~ Saint Germain The book, Unveiled Mysteries by Godfre Ray King contains this beautiful instruction from the Avatar of the Aquarian Age, Saint Germain. This meditation inspired a song, I AM a Child of the Light,  https://jenniferruthrussell.bandcamp.com/track/child-of-the-light-golden-remix The music beneath this meditation is called Light Child, composed by Jennifer.

Palm Sunday recalls the historic event of Jesus entering Jerusalem and being greeted with audible "hosannas" from the crowds who paved the path into the city with palm leaves before him. Metaphysically, the "hosanna" and the "palm leaves" represent an awareness and recognition of the divine Christ Presence that Jesus embodied. In the words of Eric Butterworth, Jesus was not the "great exception," he was the "great example" that celebrates the Divine Christ Potential in us all.  With Rick Busby, LUT

Rev. Celeste's guest is Rev. Michael Terranova, publisher and sole owner of Wise Woman Press. Michael is an independent New Thought minister who promotes the teachings of Emma Curtis Hopkins. He has published all of her books and created Self Treatments (which is a compilation of Self-treatment and other published works). Michael has accepted Emma Curtis Hopkins as his ministry. Emma died in 1925 but is still a great influence on New Thought.Ruth Miller, two other women and Michael formed Wise Woman Press (WWP). He studied the Kingdoms of Consciousness (http://www.sacreddays.org/) with Rev Marcia Sutton and was called to do this work. "Scientific Christian Mental Practice" is Emma's most popular book. WWP publishes a few contemporary female authors. WWP published the Path of Power series (including work by Fillmore and Holmes), which ministers use for sermons. Michael created the websites www.emmacurtishopkins.com and www.wisewomanpress.com. WWP published Emma's major works as well as 23 of her Bible Interpretation Series. There are five Bible Interpretations left to publish. Michael thinks the Bible interpretations are her best work. He won't leave here until they are published.Michael shared history. Emma ordained Myrtle and Charles Fillmore. Emma's student, Annie Rix Militz founded the Home of Truth (which still exists in Alameda, CA). In the late 1800s, when Emma began her ministry, Theosophy came into prominence. She was influenced by Hinduism and other mystic philosophies. There are misperceptions about Emma. One is that Malinda Cramer was a student of Emma. One of Emma's students, Kate Bingham taught the Brooks sisters. A healing took place. With Melinda Cramer, the women created Divine Science.At one time, everything was called Christian Science, but Mary Baker Eddy became owner of the name Christian Science. To Michael, New Thought teaching is that Christ is the Truth. Michael changed the name of Emma's book, "First Lessons in Christian Science". This was Emma's first book, but no one wanted to publish it by that name. It's now called "First Lessons from the Journals of Emma Curtis Hopkins". To Michael, the most intriguing part of Emma's teaching is Christ. A lot of New Thought teachings do not include Christ. Michael stopped practicing Catholicism, but he continues his connection with the Christ Presence. Emma teaches Jesus Christ. She teaches that the Bible stories are about us. She doesn't talk about Heaven and Hell, but instead about how to let Christ be your life.  Ernest Holmes got mysticism from Emma. Mysticism is an encompassing presence. Holmes' teaching changed after that. Fenwicke Holmes said that. Fenwicke wrote The Voice Celestial. Michael interprets the poem as the Bhagavad Gita story.Yogananda's teaching came from Babaji. Yogananda (Home | Self-Realization Fellowship (yogananda.org) was one of Michael's grandmother's teachers.Michael created an Emma Curtis Hopkins group at https://groups.io/g/emmacurtishopkins/Michael came into ministry because of a longing to know God. He was previously engaged in past life regression work. In his past, he found that he was a minister and a friar. He also uses the past life regression work, the tarot, the Kaballah, and numerology to keep in touch with the Presence. The Truth is always out there.Michael's mystic moment came when he was a young man at a party who got in an argument and got stabbed. Something within him said "Life goes on within you and without you". He knew there are greater things than the life he was living. It was quite enlightening.A house painter by trade, Michael pays attention to detail. He was ordained in the Christ Church of Co-Creation in Portland, Oregon in 2009. Listen to Rev.

  Come renew yourself at the Clarity to Courage Conference Click Here Renew means to make like new to restore to freshness     I don't know about you but there is so much of me that needs renewing.   Think about an old piece of furniture and how in the hands of the right person they can restore that thing to freshness…sometimes it takes on a new purpose an other times you just get 100 more years out of it. Renewing is something that must take place in order for us to live out this life on earth…       So what does scripture say can be renewed.   Our Hearts |  Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. 2 Cor 4:16   Our Minds  | Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.  Romans 12:2   Our Spirit | Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me. Do not cast me from your presence or take your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of your salvation and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me. Psalms 51:10-12   So how is it that we are renewed?   It is in Christ Presence that we find this renewal. It is in relationship with Him   It is in His word…it is in praising God   It is in a walk   It is in rest 14 The LORD replied, “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.” Exodus 33:14

Unlocking the Gospel from the constraints of time and space and becoming identified with the I AM, The Christ Presence within.
