Rev. Wendy Craig-Purcell explores the mystical currents within Christianity, emphasizing the difference between the historical Jesus and the universal Christ Consciousness—the divine potential within everyone—which aligns with Unity's focus on inner experience. It highlights how contemplative practices like Centering Prayer and Lectio Divina offer a pathway to direct spiritual encounter rather than reliance on dogma or belief alone. Ultimately, the message is that like Unity, the Christian mystical heart is found in the direct, indwelling experience of God (Divine Immanence), echoing the wisdom of figures such as Meister Eckhart and Julian of Norwich.Website: http://www.theunitycenter.net Download Our New App: https://theunitycenter.churchcenter.com/setupAsk Yourself This: https://www.amazon.com/Ask-Yourself-This-Questions-Expand/dp/087159336XSubscribe to our YouTube channel: http://bit.ly/2hBqp7F Purchase Lesson Series Packages: https://theunitycenter.net/sunday-series-packagesListen to our Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/6YJWcAhQUnkEHFqBXQmz1G

The theme “The Abundance Within: Beyond the Lie of Lack” challenges us to recognise how scarcity thinking and limiting beliefs block us from experiencing the fullness of life. It guides us to shift our mindset from fear-based “not enough” to an awareness of abundance in all areas—time, love, creativity, support, and yes, material resources. Through practices of self-awareness, gratitude, healthy environment, and generous giving, we learn to live in the consciousness of abundance and allow prosperity to manifest outwardly.Website: http://www.theunitycenter.net Download Our New App: https://theunitycenter.churchcenter.com/setupAsk Yourself This: https://www.amazon.com/Ask-Yourself-This-Questions-Expand/dp/087159336XSubscribe to our YouTube channel: http://bit.ly/2hBqp7F Purchase Lesson Series Packages: https://theunitycenter.net/sunday-series-packagesListen to our Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/6YJWcAhQUnkEHFqBXQmz1G

The Source of All Abundance emphasizes that abundance is a state of being grounded in our divine nature, while prosperity is its outward expression. By understanding God as the unfailing source—not our jobs or possessions—we reconnect with the infinite spiritual substance that sustains all creation. This foundation invites us to release scarcity thinking, recognize our divine worth, and live in conscious alignment with the flow of infinite good.Website: http://www.theunitycenter.net Download Our New App: https://theunitycenter.churchcenter.com/setupAsk Yourself This: https://www.amazon.com/Ask-Yourself-This-Questions-Expand/dp/087159336XSubscribe to our YouTube channel: http://bit.ly/2hBqp7F Purchase Lesson Series Packages: https://theunitycenter.net/sunday-series-packagesListen to our Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/6YJWcAhQUnkEHFqBXQmz1G
Today, Rev. Wendy Craig-Purcell's message is on Ken Wilber’s Integral Theory, which teaches that true spirituality means not just awakening and growing internally, but also showing up—embodying insights through authentic action, service, and compassionate engagement with the world.Website: http://www.theunitycenter.net Download Our New App: https://theunitycenter.churchcenter.com/setupAsk Yourself This: https://www.amazon.com/Ask-Yourself-This-Questions-Expand/dp/087159336XSubscribe to our YouTube channel: http://bit.ly/2hBqp7F Purchase Lesson Series Packages: https://theunitycenter.net/sunday-series-packagesListen to our Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/6YJWcAhQUnkEHFqBXQmz1G
Today, Rev. Wendy Craig-Purcell shares about Integral Theory, “cleaning up” is the process of confronting the unconscious shadow—the parts of ourselves we’ve denied, rejected, or repressed. By bringing these wounds and limiting patterns into the light through practices like shadow work, therapy, and self-reflection, we stop projecting them onto others and take responsibility for our healing. This integration frees us to live with greater authenticity, wholeness, and spiritual depth, allowing our awakening to be grounded and complete.Website: http://www.theunitycenter.net Download Our New App: https://theunitycenter.churchcenter.com/setupAsk Yourself This: https://www.amazon.com/Ask-Yourself-This-Questions-Expand/dp/087159336XSubscribe to our YouTube channel: http://bit.ly/2hBqp7F Purchase Lesson Series Packages: https://theunitycenter.net/sunday-series-packagesListen to our Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/6YJWcAhQUnkEHFqBXQmz1G
Today, Rev. Wendy-Craig Purcell's message is about Ken Wilber’s Integral Theory, which offers a holistic framework that unites psychology, spirituality, science, and philosophy to map human growth and consciousness. A core principle, “Growing Up,” emphasizes moving through stages of development—from egocentric to ethnocentric to world-centric—expanding empathy, compassion, and wisdom along the way. Spiritual awakening must be paired with emotional and moral maturity to fully embody higher consciousness and live in service to others.Website: http://www.theunitycenter.net Download Our New App: https://theunitycenter.churchcenter.com/setupAsk Yourself This: https://www.amazon.com/Ask-Yourself-This-Questions-Expand/dp/087159336XSubscribe to our YouTube channel: http://bit.ly/2hBqp7F Purchase Lesson Series Packages: https://theunitycenter.net/sunday-series-packagesListen to our Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/6YJWcAhQUnkEHFqBXQmz1G
Today, Rev. Wendy Craig-Purcell talks about "Integral Theory," developed by philosopher Ken Wilber, is a comprehensive framework that integrates insights from psychology, science, and spirituality to help people achieve a more holistic understanding of consciousness and human development. The theory's core principles—Waking Up, Growing Up, Cleaning Up, and Showing Up—provide a map for personal and collective transformation, with Waking Up referring to the process of spiritual awakening and experiencing higher states of consciousness.Website: http://www.theunitycenter.net Download Our New App: https://theunitycenter.churchcenter.com/setupAsk Yourself This: https://www.amazon.com/Ask-Yourself-This-Questions-Expand/dp/087159336XSubscribe to our YouTube channel: http://bit.ly/2hBqp7F Purchase Lesson Series Packages: https://theunitycenter.net/sunday-series-packagesListen to our Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/6YJWcAhQUnkEHFqBXQmz1G
Today, Rev. Wendy Craig-Purcell's theme of "Scenic Overlooks " encourages pausing without guilt to notice beauty and cultivate awe in the present moment. Drawing on wisdom from Taoism, scripture, and research, it emphasizes that rest, joy, and gratitude are not rewards we earn at the “finish line,” but practices that sustain us along the way. By taking daily scenic pauses and sealing moments with gratitude, we learn to see abundance and joy as ever-present companions on our spiritual road trip.Website: http://www.theunitycenter.net Download Our New App: https://theunitycenter.churchcenter.com/setupAsk Yourself This: https://www.amazon.com/Ask-Yourself-This-Questions-Expand/dp/087159336XSubscribe to our YouTube channel: http://bit.ly/2hBqp7F Purchase Lesson Series Packages: https://theunitycenter.net/sunday-series-packagesListen to our Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/6YJWcAhQUnkEHFqBXQmz1G
Today, Rev. Wendy Craig-Purcell's theme reminds us that our arrivals only have meaning when we acknowledge the lessons, detours, and beauty along the way. True “arrival” is less about a final destination and more about savoring experiences, sharing our stories, and grounding them in gratitude. Each milestone is temporary, but when we honor it fully, it becomes fuel for the ongoing, sacred journey of life.Website: http://www.theunitycenter.net Download Our New App: https://theunitycenter.churchcenter.com/setupAsk Yourself This: https://www.amazon.com/Ask-Yourself-This-Questions-Expand/dp/087159336XSubscribe to our YouTube channel: http://bit.ly/2hBqp7F Purchase Lesson Series Packages: https://theunitycenter.net/sunday-series-packagesListen to our Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/6YJWcAhQUnkEHFqBXQmz1G
The theme, Navigating Detours and Roadblocks, reminds us that setbacks are inevitable but often carry hidden gifts. Through Kai’s story, we see that detours can shift our perspective, deepen resilience, and open us to unexpected connections and wisdom. By practicing adaptability, embracing sacred pauses, reframing obstacles as opportunities, and cultivating patience, we learn that the detour itself can become the true destination.Website: http://www.theunitycenter.net Download Our New App: https://theunitycenter.churchcenter.com/setupAsk Yourself This: https://www.amazon.com/Ask-Yourself-This-Questions-Expand/dp/087159336XSubscribe to our YouTube channel: http://bit.ly/2hBqp7F Purchase Lesson Series Packages: https://theunitycenter.net/sunday-series-packagesListen to our Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/6YJWcAhQUnkEHFqBXQmz1G
In this week’s “Spiritual Road Trip” theme, we focus on how to use your soul’s GPS to travel through life with greater ease and grace. Your inner guidance speaks through the restlessness of divine discontent, the whispers of intuition, and the alignment of your personal vibration, helping you recognize when you’re on the right path—or when it’s time to reroute. By listening closely and adjusting with flexibility, you can reach not only your destination but also a deeper sense of joy, purpose, and spiritual fulfillment.Website: http://www.theunitycenter.net Download Our New App: https://theunitycenter.churchcenter.com/setupAsk Yourself This: https://www.amazon.com/Ask-Yourself-This-Questions-Expand/dp/087159336XSubscribe to our YouTube channel: http://bit.ly/2hBqp7F Purchase Lesson Series Packages: https://theunitycenter.net/sunday-series-packagesListen to our Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/6YJWcAhQUnkEHFqBXQmz1G
In this lighthearted summer series, the theme of “Packing Your Spiritual Suitcase” invites us to reflect on what inner tools and attitudes we bring with us on life’s journey. Drawing on travel experiences—from minimalist packing and phrasebooks to comfortable shoes and maps—the message highlights the importance of simplicity, empathy, resilience, purpose, and reflection. Just as travel shapes us, these spiritual essentials support us in living with intention, meeting others with compassion, and staying grounded in our values.Website: http://www.theunitycenter.net Download Our New App: https://theunitycenter.churchcenter.com/setupAsk Yourself This: https://www.amazon.com/Ask-Yourself-This-Questions-Expand/dp/087159336XSubscribe to our YouTube channel: http://bit.ly/2hBqp7F Purchase Lesson Series Packages: https://theunitycenter.net/sunday-series-packagesListen to our Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/6YJWcAhQUnkEHFqBXQmz1G
This week’s theme, “Help Each Other Stay Awake,” emphasizes the importance of staying spiritually alert and supporting one another on the lifelong journey of awakening the soul, inspired by Mark Nepo’s The Book of Soul. It highlights that spiritual growth is not a static destination but a dynamic, heart-centered process of awareness, vulnerability, and connection. We’re reminded that awakening is not only personal but communal—our own journey deepens when we support others, share our path, and build compassionate spiritual communities.Website: http://www.theunitycenter.net Download Our New App: https://theunitycenter.churchcenter.com/setupAsk Yourself This: https://www.amazon.com/Ask-Yourself-This-Questions-Expand/dp/087159336XSubscribe to our YouTube channel: http://bit.ly/2hBqp7F Purchase Lesson Series Packages: https://theunitycenter.net/sunday-series-packagesListen to our Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/6YJWcAhQUnkEHFqBXQmz1G
