A Positive Spirituality: No Hell, Only Heaven Within
10:50 AM — Prelude Music with the “Friends” Band
11:00 AM — Celebration Service
Talk Title: “No Hell, Only Heaven Within”
Speaker: Rev. Bridget McCann
No Hell, Only Heaven Within – This month we go back to basics, exploring some of the foundational principles of our spiritual philosophy as a Center for Spiritual Living, a positive spirituality. This week – Heaven and Hell. What are they, really? Are they actual places? States of mind? What is the relationship between them and our lives? As a Center for Spiritual Living, we positively “believe in” heaven, and it’s available to all. Come hear what that means and how to attain it.
Inspirational Music from
Our Music Director:
Throughout the greater Pacific NW and beyond, vocalist and songwriter Lauri Jones has been stirring a deep spiritual knowing in her listeners for decades. On CD Baby: “…her voice is ‘rich and sensuous with amazing clarity and presence… it melts the heart.’” You’ll experience her authenticity and your own delight in equal measure as you enjoy this true artist expressing her gifts!
