Lighting Up Our Dreams | Faith In Action Week 3 | Rev. Rick Belous

All the things one has forgotten scream for help in dreams. Dreams involve the light of consciousness interacting with the unconscious mind. Light and consciousness are indivisible. Dreams reveal how our inner light interacts with our subconscious mind to show us deep truths about our lives. The unconscious is unavailable for analysis because there is no separate self to observe it. The ego creates a sense of separated self and by waking from this illusion we open up to pure awareness and discover the true genius within us.

Receiving our Inner Light | Faith In Action Week 2 | Rev. Deborah Phillips

All the energy we take into our bodies is derived from the sun. Our cells are composed of ‘living water” which is structured by light, storing energy like a battery. We can supplement our energy by spending more time in natural sunlight. There is a force in the universe which will flow through us and produce miraculous results. The intelligence of life helps us discover who we are. The heart generates the body’s most powerful electromagnetic field. Love and intimacy are the most important factors in our lives.

Guided by Our Light | Faith In Action Week 1 | Rev. Rick Belous

Light is not merely a physical phenomenon but a fundamental force that guides all life. Science describes light as the foundation of reality; spiritual traditions identify it with the Creator. Our eyes respond to light’s guidance before our mind directs us. They not only receive light but also emit it, reflecting our inner state. Presence arises when our eyes and mind focus on the same place at the same time, guided by light.

A Cautionary Tale | Rev Rick Belous

For a number of years Rev. Mary Manon Morrissey’s Living Enrichment Center (LEC) was one of the leading New Thought and Inter-Faith centers in the world. However, with success came dissension, loose practices, and back-biting. A few years after LEC reached glorious heights, it crashed and burned, resulting in almost $11 million worth of embezzlement, jail time, and ultimately bankruptcy for the LEC. “What happened at the LEC is a cautionary tale that we should learn from as we build our dreams at the SLC. It can show us ways that we can remain true to Spirit,” Rev. Rick Belous suggests.

The Harvest | Rev. Rick Belous

By applying a few central spiritual principles, and with next to nothing except a profound faith, Rev. Mary Manon Morrissey was able to build the Living Enrichment Center in Oregon into one of the leading New Thought and Inter-Faith centers in the world. “You come away from this with a deep and renewed sense that these spiritual principles really work, and can be replicated anywhere,” Rev. Rick Belous says.

The Spirit of Generosity - Rev. Dr. Rick Belous

A key ingredient that is needed to make our dreams come true is a deep and abiding spirit of generosity. In building her field of dreams, Rev. Mary Manon Morrissey found that the ancient words “give, and it shall be given” are so true. “She had to overcome scarcity and lack consciousness before things started to grow. There is so much that we can learn from Rev. Mary’s story,” Rev. Rick Belous notes.

Dealing With Fear | Rev. Dr. Rick Belous

Fear often is a major roadblock in the way of making our dreams a reality. Rev. Mary Manon Morrissey faced many fears while she was building the Living Enrichment Center. But she was able to lean into very powerful spiritual truths and tools that helped her overcome these fears. Rev Rick Belous will explain the spiritual principles Rev. Mary used that can help us overcome our fears.

Labor, AI, & Meaning | Rev. Dr. Rick Belous

Prior to his call to ministry, Rev. Rick was one of the first economists to work with the pioneers of Artificial Intelligence. “AI will shake up the world of work. Beyond the economic implications, I believe that AI will destroy a sense of ‘meaning’ for millions of white and blue collar workers,” Rev. Rick predicts. He believes that this ironically will create a new wave of spiritual seekers. Will communities like SLC be prepared to be of love and service for these new seekers?

Moving Beyond ‘Head’ Knowledge | Rev. Dr. Rick Belous

Leading New Thought teachers — from Myrtle Fillmore to Eric Butterworth — have found that intellectual knowledge of such things as affirmative prayer and the law of attraction is not enough to “move mountains.” If we want to see our dreams come true, it is important to turn intellectual knowledge into practical and experiential ‘heart knowledge’.

Setting Goals | Rev. Dr. Rick Belous

Many leading New Thought teachers have placed a key emphasis on goal setting. We will explore several ways that we can make certain that our goals align with Spirit when we are building on the individual, spiritual community, and even New Thought and Inter-Faith movement levels.
