Today, Rev. Wendy Craig-Purcell's lesson "Listening for the Whisper: Return to the World" invites us to reconnect with nature as the ultimate teacher, healer, and source of spiritual grounding. Drawing from Christina Baldwin's The Seven Whispers, it emphasizes how industrialization and modern conveniences have distanced us from the natural world and its cyclical rhythms. Through stories, quotes, and reflections, the lesson explores nature's wisdom, efficiency, and capacity for healing, urging us to realign with its pace and patterns. Practical exercises encourage mindful reconnection, such as spending time outdoors, planting something, and observing the natural world. Affirmations remind us of our intimate connection to the earth, inspiring mindful and respectful living as partners with nature.

Today, Rev. Wendy Craig-Purcell's lesson is on the sixth whisper, "Love the Folks in Front of You," from Christina Baldwin's The Seven Whispers. We are called to see and honor the humanity in those around us, particularly the people we interact with daily yet often overlook. Inspired by teachings from Leo Tolstoy and various cultural reflections, this lesson challenges us to drop judgments, open our hearts, and foster genuine connections, even with those we might find difficult to love. Through small acts of attention and compassion, we are encouraged to reclaim the ancient practice of neighborliness, recognizing our shared humanity and interdependence. By listening to each other's stories and practicing empathy, we deepen our sense of belonging and create a compassionate community.

Today, Rev. Wendy Craig Purcell's lesson is on "Listening for the Whisper: Ask for What You Need" encourages participants to engage in a spiritual dance of reciprocity by openly asking for what they truly need and offering what they can. Drawing from Christina Baldwin's book The Seven Whispers, it highlights the importance of balancing giving and receiving to sustain healthy, interconnected relationships. This practice challenges Western notions of consumption, inviting a shift from competition to community-oriented “spiritual trading.” Through stories, reflections, and exercises, the lesson explores the difference between needs and wants, the impact of overconsumption, and the potential for deeper, mutual support. Participants are prompted to examine their role in global inequities and consider adopting voluntary simplicity to foster a more balanced, inclusive world.

Author Christina Baldwin is a pioneer in the field of personal writing, a decades-long teacher of journal writing and story. In 2024, she released her debut novel, The Beekeeper's Question, Love and Honey, War and Reckoning, A Novel of WWII, a book I heartily recommend. We talk about a rich array of topics, including themes from the book, the relevance of a novel set during World War II to today, how Christina worked with a Native American advisor to make sure her story was appropriate and accurate, and the challenges and rewards of independent publishing.

Yesterday, Rev. Wendy Craig-Purcell's lesson, “Surrender to Surprise,” explores how embracing life's unexpected moments—both joyful and challenging—can become a profound spiritual practice. Drawing from Christina Baldwin's The Seven Whispers, it encourages us to “surrender to surprise” by loosening our grip on rigid plans and allowing room for spontaneity and resilience. Through personal stories and reflections, the lesson highlights that surprise often disrupts our expectations, yet offers growth, perspective, and the chance to deepen our faith. Emphasizing a balanced approach to structure and openness, it invites participants to practice observing, working with, and accepting whatever life brings, turning life's “straw” into “gold” through spiritual surrender. ~ Website: http://www.theunitycenter.net ~ Download Our New App: https://theunitycenter.churchcenter.com/setup ~ Ask Yourself This: https://www.amazon.com/Ask-Yourself-This-Questions-Expand/dp/087159336X ~ Subscribe to our YouTube channel: http://bit.ly/2hBqp7F ~ Purchase Lesson Series Packages: https://theunitycenter.net/sunday-series-packages ~ Listen to our Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/6YJWcAhQUnkEHFqBXQmz1G

Yesterday, Rev. Wendy Craig-Purcell's lesson titled "Listening for the Whisper: Practice Certainty of Purpose" is based on Christina Baldwin's book The Seven Whispers and explores the theme of discovering and committing to one's life purpose. Using quotes from various sources, including a Hasidic legend and the works of authors like William Wordsworth and Meg Wheatley, the lesson emphasizes that each of us is born with a purpose, even if we forget it along the way. It encourages reflection on personal purpose, discussing how small, local actions can create profound global impacts. Through personal stories, affirmations, and reflection exercises, the lesson invites participants to explore their deeper calling, move from uncertainty to clarity, and live with intention, contributing to the larger fabric of the world.

Today, Rev. Wendy Craig-Purcell's lesson "Listening for the Whisper: Move at the Pace of Guidance" explores the importance of slowing down and tuning into spiritual guidance amidst the fast-paced demands of modern life. Drawing from Christina Baldwin's book The Seven Whispers, it emphasizes the contrast between living at high speed, driven by distractions and ego, and moving at the gentle pace of divine guidance, which invites stillness and presence. Through practices of quiet reflection and active listening, the lesson encourages participants to rehumanize their lives, minimize distractions, and seek spiritual wisdom. Key questions like "What do You want me to do?" and "How do I need to change?" guide the practice of aligning with divine timing.

The teaching emphasizes that inner peace allows us to remain open to the Divine and maintain a personal connection with Spirit. Drawing from wisdom traditions, meditation practices, and personal reflection, the lesson encourages conscious breathing, releasing expectations, and stilling the mind to access deeper awareness and clarity.

Rebecca interviews CHRISTINA BALDWIN. Spiritual journaling is a bit like automatic writing. You let the pen tell you what you need to know.

Christina Baldwin discusses the power of storytelling, journaling and holding circle (The Circle Way Process); the story of how her influential book, The Seven Whispers, was birthed, and living the unconventional life.  “Let's be a community. Let's know one another. Let's tell one another enough true story about who we are that we break the pattern. We have a synergistic energy that makes us dynamic and powerful.”– Christina Baldwin About Christina Baldwin Christina Baldwin is a writer, wanderer, teacher on the trail of community and story; she is co-founder, with Ann Linnea, of PeerSpirit,Inc. and The Circle Way Process, bringing modern structure and application to the human heritage of circle. Christina is the author of 7 books, including (with Ann) The Circle Way, A Leader in Every Chair; Storycatcher; Life's Companion; Calling the Circle; and The Seven Whispers, Spiritual Practice for Times Like These. She works cross-culturally and internationally instilling circle process wherever it can flourish and in the Art of Hosting network. ....In this show…. Christina Baldwin's Life Purpose To share stories and help people realize that we can take action between the borders of our lives and the bigger story. Life Purpose Ah-Ha Moments As a 10 year old in the 4th grade, Christina Baldwin read two stories in the paper about wheat surplus in America and starvation in India. She shared her idea about sending the surplus wheat to India to her father, who explains to her that "that's not how the world works". Christina Baldwin's heart broke when she was told that wheat was pushed into the sea, but then decided at this early age that she wanted a world where these kinds of events didn't happen anymore. Major Life Events that Hinted at Your Life Purpose In high school, Christina Baldwin was moved by the diary of Anne Frank. She learned from Anne Frank's life that even if you don't survive, your story can. Because this was during the time of  the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis and threats of WWIII, Christina Baldwin took her own diary, Anne Frank's diary, a couple of Life Magazines, Minneapolis Star Tribune and the Bible, and buried it in a bank box in the woods. This was a moment she linked her own life to the larger story.  She knew then that her life's work was going to be to save the story and to help everyone live their true story. In college, Christina Baldwin took a course called "Man And His World", which taught about peace activism and feminism. She then became a different kind of woman than how she had been raised and what she saw in the rest of the world. She carried her new sense of feminism into her literature course, in which her professor challenged her to relate each novel to feminism. This gave Christina Baldwin the ability to look at the world through a lens without being consumed by it. At the age of 30, Christina Baldwin went to a writers conference and was given a 15 minute time slot to talk about the importance of journaling. She offered to speak more about the subject after the prevention in a conference room, and forty women showed up. The organizer of the conference encouraged Christina Baldwin to write a book about journaling. This lead Christina to write her first book "One to One: Self-Understanding Through Journal Writing." This topic was so new, that the Library of Congress created a new category for it. Spiritual Belief "Yes"  (Listen for details) Raised in a liberal and loving aspect of Protestant Christianity and thinks of Jesus as a profound teacher and healer Considers herself to be "Episcopagan" We show up with aspects of the divine radiating out of ourselves over and over again. Defines God as "what happens in the space between. God is what is happening between the whirling atoms that create this whole universe. God is what is happening in the space between you and me when we are in heart space. God is when I really see creation and am moved to tears by beauty and courage." Recommended Personal Growth Resource or Practice Journal. Make time to wonder about yourself and reflect on why things are the way they are. Walk in nature. Christina Baldwin's Wisdom on Igniting Life Purpose and Personal Growth "There's a poem by William Stafford called 'The Way It Is' that begins,  'There's a thread you follow. It goes amongthings that change. But it doesn't change.People wonder about what you are pursuing.You have to explain about the thread.But it is hard for others to see.While you hold it you can't get lost.' There is a thread, a narrative thread, that we're holding in ours lives. If we hold on to that thread, sometimes the story shatters, terrible things happen, surprises happen and we have to surrender to them. But as long as you hold to this thread, you're going to be okay."
