This Sunday in the Sanctuary~ July 25, 2021

Join us at 10:15 am ET/ 8:15 am MT for Our Weekly Sunday Gathering with Anne Blanchard, LM

Title:  “You Gotta Feel It To Heal It: Cultivating an Undefended Heart”

Description: Sometimes it seems like the best we can do when we feel hurt is to “turn the other cheek” and move on. And while choosing not to react, not to defend, not to engage outwardly is no doubt a great first step, that may not actually be the best we can do. Whenever we feel hurt, we are in reality being given a much more profound healing opportunity, that is, a chance to free our heart from what blocks its natural open loving flow. Join Anne Blanchard this Sunday as she looks at the secrets of the spiritual heart, how and why it closes, and how we can actively cultivate a genuinely open and undefended heart.

Reading:  Rev. Sherry Daves will read selected passages from Chapter 6 of Micheal Singer’s epic tome of purification, The Untethered Soul.

*Weekly gathering is held every Sunday morning at 10:15 am ET/8:15 am MT in the Awakening Together Sanctuary. Join us after the Gathering for our Fellowship Time, hosted by Rev. George Maddox.

Join us at 1:30 pm ET/ 11:30 am MT for Freedom Practice Sangha

This will be a time of sharing our inquiries, insights, and challenges, listening to others, or just knowing that we are in community as we find that undefended place within ourselves that longs to be free. This program will be facilitated by Anne Blanchard.

Join us at 6:00 pm ET/ 4:00 pm MT for Something Genuine with Rev. Jacquelyn Eckert

Rev. Jacquelyn Eckert facilitates this program, in which Awakening Together members and friends join together to watch and discuss TED talks that reveal the Truth of ourselves and our universe based on the actual experience of ordinary people. Their insights are genuine—not based upon theory or dogma—and give us a “man on the street” perspective on what we are coming to learn through Awakening Together.

Join us at 7:00 pm ET/ 5:00 pm MT for The Guiding Light with Rev. Regina Dawn Akers *Recording

Regina Dawn Akers reads selections from the book Perfect Brilliant Stillness by David Carse. The purpose of this inspired book study is to learn to stop focusing on words and concepts. Look where the pointers point! Be still and realize Perfect Brilliant Stillness just as it is. Join Regina as she dives deep into this enlightened book study which isn’t a book study at all!

Join us at 8:00 pm ET/ 6:00 pm MT for Movie Watchers Discussion Group

Ron Raitz will lead the Movie Group’s discussion of this movie on Sunday, July 25 at 8 p.m. ET/6 pm MT. This month, we will revisit a movie we have seen before, “Peaceful Warrior.” Dan Millman is a gifted young athlete bound for Olympic gold who will do anything to be the best. Driven by success, Dan has got it all: trophies, fast motorcycles, fast girls, and wild parties. But Dan’s world is turned upside down when he meets a mysterious stranger in a gas station who holds the power to tap into new worlds of strength and understanding. The young man discovers that he has much to learn and even more to leave behind in order to master this new vision of greatness.

As you watch the movie, watch for themes we have been frequently discussing in the Awakening Together Sanctuary. Most importantly, remember to ask for Guidance prior to watching the movie and bring your insights to the Movie Watcher’s Discussion Group.

The movie is available on Amazon Prime, Vudu, Itunes, and YouTube, Apple TV.
