Spiritual Abundance with Rev. Erin
|
Activating spiritual principle
Claiming abundance
Wednesday nights,
March 9th - 30th
7pm Community Center
Join Rev. Erin after the Wednesday Meditation for this unique four week class on prosperity. Most prosperity classes are six to twelve weeks long. There are two books to purchase and read: "The Four Spiritual Laws of Prosperity" by Edwene Gaines, and "The Abundance Book" by John Randolph Price. Both books are available online or in the Unity Bookstore.
Learn how to "release the divine energy from within and transmute discord into harmony, ignorance into wisdom, fear into love and lack into abundance."(Price/The Abundance Book, p.2) 
Learn to use your transmuting power, work with the laws of the universe and master money. Explore the frequency of your field, the energy of opulence and "shift from a consciousness of effects (materiality) to a consciousness of cause (spirituality)." (Price/The Abundance Book, p.23)
We live in an opulent universe, governed by spiritual law, supported by infinite love and born in inherent blessing... inheritance.
