Love Deeper Than You Can Imagine
May 26th
I find it amusing how confused I really was when I found the Center of Light. I thought that I had a pretty good handle on what it meant to be a spiritual seeker through my years of reading and studying. I’d been exposed to most every flavor of religion and spirituality, but it never More >
Overwhelmed by Love
Dec 10th
At the time I found the Center of Light two years ago, I felt like a leaf that was hopelessly tossed about in the autumn wind. There were some temporary ups and funny turns, but the overall trajectory seemed downward and hopeless. In my heart I was despaired. For years I had tried to find More >
Dreaming of Brotherhood
Dec 10th
When I was nine years old I remember my parents telling me, “we’re going to move just one more time.” They sincerely understood that it was getting harder to leave friends and schools as my sister and I got older. By the time we settled in Colorado one year later it was the eighth house More >
That I Am Loved
Sep 8th
I would like to share with you a turning point in my life. A series of events that has caused more healing than I ever thought possible. I refer to the story as the time when God forced me to accept being loved. (Now, I know God doesn’t force one to do anything, but hear More >
The Start of My Life in God
Aug 19th
I was an artist. This was just what I was and if you asked me how I was going to support myself as an artist (was I going to be a commercial graphic designer? NO!) I would get very offended because that just didn’t matter to me as much as being “free” and making art More >
Not Your Parents’ Jesus and Mary
Aug 6th
I have been living in spiritual community for six weeks now, as a novice at the Chicago Center of Light. I made this move because for the last two years I have been more and more involved with this spiritual practice, through meditation classes, spiritual seminars, and eventually through relationships with Teachers, priests, and the More >
Will My Question Finally Be Answered?
Aug 6th
For the past 20 years, my subconscious mind was driven by one pre-dominantly question, “What is the purpose of my life?” I got raised by an agnostic mother and grew up in a country destroyed by a religious civil war so turning to God, Jesus and Mary to get questions answered was not an option.

The Seeds of God’s Love
Jul 19th
Why is it that some people feel and know God’s love for them and some people feel like God is against them or not hearing them and seeing them? Through my experience in working with different people I have found that the degree to which someone can receive and feel God’s love is in direct More >
Growing and Deepening into Who I Truly Am
Jul 19th
Recently I was watering some houseplants. They looked healthy enough, but I noticed that they weren’t growing and that the roots were at the surface, all tightly wound together. As I transplanted them today, I felt the relief of the plants as I put them in fresh soil, in their new spacious pots. They felt More >
Eco-Consciousness
Jul 19th
Here in the Seattle Center, we’re starting a new project—eco-consciousness—a chance for us to wake up to our relationship with the earth. This is totally new and it will evolve. The general idea is that at the beginning of each month, I send out an email to the community about an area for us to More >
