Sunday in the Awakening Together Sanctuary – 7/24/16

July 23, 2016 By Dawn Fernandez

 

Join us this Sunday morning for our Weekly Gathering

Our WeeJacquelynkly Gathering is Sunday at 10:15am ET in the Awakening Together Sanctuary. Rev. Jacquelyn Eckert’s topic is, “Experiencing Reality / Experiencing the Now”. Rev. Jacquelyn will explore the idea that to recognize the gulf between aliveness itself and anything generated by the mind (however “true” it appears to be) is a liberating discovery and the way to come to know what you deeply are.

Connie Poole will be the reader. She will read from a Jan Frazier teaching, “Consciousness and Chronic Pain”.


Join us this Sunday evening at 8 PM ET, for our Spirit Led Movie Watcher’s Group.  This month’s movie is “The Nines”.  Reverend Jacquelyn Eckert says:

“Movies are modern day parables. Watching movies with your inner guide can inform rather than just entertain you. This Spirit Led Movie Watchers Discussion Group will facilitate the participants’ ability to identify spiritual themes in everyday movies and to use movies as a way of uncovering unconscious beliefs about ourselves and the world we live in.”

About The Nines:  “You’re not who you think you are”

This film is broken into three chapters centred around three men (all played by the-nines-originalRyan Reynolds) who try to uncover the secret about strange happenings in their, at times overlapping, lives.  For the Hollywood player with the right job description and available technology, isn’t it tempting to imagine being God? A video-game designer or a reality-television director, as omnipotent creator and manipulator of a discrete little world, may fancy himself possessor of the keys to the kingdom.  Watch the three parts carefully, “The Prisoner”, “Reality Television” and “Knowing” – all symbolic of our own dilemmas in this world.

Watch the movie, then join us Sunday at 8:00 PM ET to discuss your thoughts.


Common Ground Guest Mini Series – Carrie Triffet – Living in Mastery

Living in mastery is a proactive decision, starting from this moment. No need to wait for enlightenment to ‘happen to you’ first! This course will offer some simple forms of practice for stepping into this choice right nowlooking-universe-GOOD, to help you gain firsthand experience and confidence in this process. 

Join Carrie Triffet, in a new 8-Week Mini-Series in the Awakening Together Sanctuary.  The program is Sunday evening at 9pm ET.

My life was forever changed in 1986 by the sudden appearance of a mysterious inner Voice—which introduced itself with the intriguing statement: Long time no see. This divine guide led me into a twenty year practice of Buddhism. And then beginning in 2005, a series of profound shifts very quickly changed everything for me. Over the next decade the Voice led me to an intensive practice of A Course in Miracles, as well as other subsequent teachings. And finally this magnificent inner guide has led me—a stubbornly single-minded spiritual seeker—to the end of seeking.

Carrie is the author of three books: TASTES LIKE GOD, LONG TIME NO SEE, and THE ENLIGHTENMENT PROJECT. 

If you are inspired by the current mini-series, please support the guest teacher with a donation. 100% of the donations made from this page go directly to the current guest teacher (minus the PayPal fee). Suggested donation is $2-$10 per week. Donations are tax deductible for US citizens under IRS code 501(c)(3).

If You Did Not Receive the Email to Rejoin Awakening Together …

July 22, 2016 By Regina Dawn Akers

 
On Thursday, July 21, we sent an email to all members inviting you to rejoin Awakening Together. If you did not get that email and you want to rejoin:

You can rejoin at this link

Why Do I Need to Rejoin?

People sometimes join churches, and then move on, but their name remains on the books as if they are an active member. In order to keep the member list updated with people who consider themselves Awakening Together members now, Awakening Together asks members to reconfirm their membership every third year.

Those who do not rejoin will be given another chance to rejoin in August. If they do not rejoin then, their name will be removed from the Awakening Together membership list. Of course, people may rejoin Awakening Together at any time from our website.

Weekly Gathering this Sunday

MexicoJoin us Sunday morning at 10:15am ET for our Weekly Gathering.  This week’s topic: Bringing Presence Into Conversations
Rev. Regina Dawn Akers will talk about how the ego slips into our conversations, thereby strengthening itself. She will also discuss techniques we can use to remain present and mindful while engaged in conversation.
Rev. David Fishman will read from Gina Lake’s book, “In the World But Not Of It.”

Satsang Audio with John Mark Stroud

JMS-head2Join us Sunday at 7:30pm ET for the replay of our Satsang with John Mark Stroud.   John Mark Stroud will be a presenter at our Fall Retreat this October in Colorado.  He experienced a shift into enlightenment after spending a month at Oneness University in India. He was a Course student prior to that and he returned to the Course after his awakening. He describes his post-awakening experience with the Course this way:

“I continued my work with A Course in Miracles, but instead of study, it served to further illuminate the deepest truths of what I had so recently experienced.”

John Mark is clear and fun. Enjoy the following audio from our September 20 online Satsang.
