There can be times in the midst of confusion or challenge that our desire for good is not happening. Or, perhaps we have been wanting a desired experience for a long time and it has not happened even with the support of spiritual practices. Rev. Christy will be giving the message of “One Minute Longer” and sharing the spiritual wisdom of the why and how to stay with it and to keep nurturing our desire, with real-life examples of outcomes that remind us of the beauty and power

A little piece of the divine was placed inside each one of us. Apostle Paul calls the "Christ Within" a mystery, but really it's a riddle solved pretty quickly if we just listen and learn from our emotions. The key is John 7:24 - to not judge by mere appearances - but instead always see the light inside of each other. In this message, Steve will show how a wonderful "thought experiment" from quantum physics supports this idea perfectly! Music by Jim Hawley, Pam Hawley, and Al

For most people raised in the Judeo-Christian tradition, sin is a four-letter word. For example, I was taught that if I were to commit too many of the wrong kinds of sins, I could end up in the bad place for eternity. After all, sinners are evil! But maybe mainstream religions have an incomplete understanding of the nature of sin. Maybe sinners (that includes all of us) are not bad people after all. Maybe they just “missed the mark.” With the help of the Edgar Cayce readings,

We are often in a hurried state of mind. We want improvements to happen in our world and we want them to happen NOW! Yet, do we spend sufficient time cultivating a relationship with the NOW moment? Living in the age of technology may create the expectation of instant gratification. Informational knowledge can come quickly, but wisdom is experientially derived. Life provides opportunities to slow us down, to shift from informational knowledge into wisdom. I call these opportun

Change is a natural part of life and also a necessity for spiritual and emotional growth. Join us after service for a special workshop, Aging Is Not for the Faint of Heart led by Rev. Arlene. Everybody is aging. Usually, as the years pass, there are challenges we may not have had to deal with before. In this workshop, she will share facts about aging and positive steps we can take to make aging a time of dignity, grace, and wisdom instead of fear and regrets. At age 83, Rev

Conflict, whether within ourselves or with others, can leave deep wounds of resentment and sorrow over time. In this message, we will reflect on spiritual teachings and the importance of forgiveness as an expression of compassionate love toward others and ourselves. As we consider our daily “trespasses”, we will understand the need to shape forgiveness into an ongoing practice—one that restores harmony and opens the way to a peaceful mind and heart. Blessed are the humble, t

As we prepare to celebrate the birth of Jesus who became the Christ, it may be helpful to examine the life of the Master. We are told that He came into the world to save us, but save us from what? How did we get into a condition from which we need to be rescued? What can we learn from the life of Jesus that we can apply in our daily lives to help us raise our consciousnesses? Let’s explore the Biblical record as well as the wisdom of the Cayce readings to learn how to live li

To be joyful at all times can seem unrealistic–even impossible–because there will inevitably be moments that are anything but joyful. But joy isn’t about outer events or circumstances…it is an aspect of our divine nature. Whatever setbacks or challenges may obscure our joy, it remains within. Joy still thrives beyond appearance, calling us to remember that we are the living presence of light and love in this world! “When communities come together in joy–through music, dance,

Let's claim our LIMITLESS nature in spite of the limits imposed by our humanity. We will re-energize our relationship with our Third Principle and renew our excitement to Co-Create with Spirit. About Bobbi: Bobbi Konefal-Shaer, a life-long teacher of all age groups and many subjects, found Unity when she drove into Unity Village while on a cross country road trip with her dog. She'd been seeking answers to some large life questions. What she found has changed everything ab

Drawing from Mark 10:13-16, we will explore the beautiful moment when Jesus welcomed little children into His arms and blessed them. While many see this as a simple story about children, hidden within these verses are profound truths about the heart of a father, the value of presence, the power of blessing, and the sacred responsibility of nurturing those entrusted to our care. In a world where many are longing for acceptance, affirmation, and connection, this message will ch

In the complexity of modern life, it's easy to spin away from a grounded center. Even the most well-intentioned of activities can lure us away from PRESENCE, disconnecting us from our experiential awareness of guidance, peace and grace. In this talk we'll explore simple ways of ‘dropping back in’, to better feel the refreshing beauty of PRESENCE more often throughout the day. About Robin: Robin Walsh is a professional stage actor, acting teacher, and longtime Unity member who

Have you ever experienced doubt? Of course, we all have. Life has a way of challenging us in ways which may lead to periods of worry and uncertainty. We may inwardly wonder, does Spirit really have our back? Is there a benevolent force “out there” amidst the chaos and confusion? In spiritual terms, doubt puts our faith to the test. Wouldn’t it be great to eradicate doubt, once and for all? This Sunday’s message will place doubt in a new light…as the tool which is necessary t

Are you a Spiritual Master of Divine Love? Take the Divine Love Self-Assessment! What is creating your resistance to a full expression of Divine Love? Let us consider spiritual teachings of the master’s path of regeneration and our own life’s journey—as we complete a 12-question, divine love self-assessment quiz. Based on Unity's and scripture’s teaching on love, we will each privately score our expression of the Universal Divine Mind of God, as we choose to move from “lig

God Is. I Am. You Are. These three simple statements can be our foundational spiritual practice. As we deeply realize the underlying unity and Oneness of all, we can transform fear into love. Compassion and forgiveness will arise. Anger and hatred will dissolve into spiritual understanding as we gain the capacity to see ourselves and each other through the eyes of God… “On that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you.” - John 14:20 “Out beyond id

Awakening to the Divine Connection Between Nature and the Soul When Spirituality Meets Earth is an uplifting exploration of how Unity’s spiritual teachings can lead a deeper, more sacred relationship with our planet. Blending timeless wisdom with contemporary climate awareness, this talk invites us to see Earth care as a spiritual practice where consciousness becomes action and wisdom becomes stewardship. A powerful message of awakening for a changing world. Music by Meg Rayn

This message will be livestream only! Please find the link here. It’s Marathon Sunday in Pittsburgh! When using our spiritual capacities, we may liken ourselves to long-distance runners, willing to persevere through adversity in our quest for enlightenment. To remain spiritually awake in this physical world is a long-term commitment. But we have set our sights on the goal…to know and express the love that we truly are, and we CAN go the distance! “Don’t try to rush progress.

You are the living, breathing experience of God expressing Itself into this world. Today we will explore the deeper meaning of the Trinity as explained through Unity teachings. With spiritual understanding, we know that the Father, Son and Holy Spirit are contained within us, forever becoming our Divine Mind, Divine Idea and Divine Expression. Unity co-founder Charles Fillmore explained in this way: “Throw yourself out of the Trinity and you become an onlooker. Throw yoursel

There is a beautiful verse from a hymn, first appearing in the late 1860's, titled "How Can I Keep from Singing": "No storm can shake my inmost calm, While to that refuge clinging... Since Love is Lord of heaven and earth, How can I keep from singing?" Rev. Christy will be talking about "The Song Beneath the Storm," reminding us of the love, the faith, and the inner calm that is always there within, that no storm around us can shake, and inviting us to ask "What is my song b
