Lecture: Triumphant Easter

And so we, on this Easter, ask one great thing, and that is that we be invaded by the true Easter meaning and spirit and power and resurrection. That from this Easter onward, something larger and greater and more important will have happened to us than has ever opened in us before.

How greatly have you changed since you have believed the message of the Lord Christ? Are you greater in the breadth and height and depth of love than you ever were before?

Lecture: How to Inwardly Celebrate Christmas

Keeping our consciousness above mediocrity, above pettiness, above smallness in our reactions is a tremendously challenging thing. But God grant that somehow this year all of us will respond in better ways than we have ever done in helping each other to have a holier Christmas. A Christmas in which love between the Christ and His world, and between one another and between us and those distant strangers for whom we pray is a very felt part of our celebration.

Lecture: How to Inwardly Celebrate Christmas

Christmas must not be celebrated in one day. It needs weeks of preparation. Weeks of attuning ourselves physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually, to its great and vast reality. It also needs weeks in order that we may absorb and bring through that which we touched in communion, if we were so fortunate.

Lecture: How to Inwardly Celebrate Christmas

Every sacred season is highly important to us spiritually because it has an innermost meaning by which we may be ushered into portals of new understanding and new unfoldment. Always we yearn to celebrate Christmas rightly but so often we get caught in the outer details. There is so much to do.

I Will Arise
Released April 18, 2022; Insights by Reverend Blake Isaac
Music: I Will Arise by Chris Machen and Mike Harland
Lecture: Easter Sunday: Instructions on Easter

During the Covid-19 sheltering at home orders, our choir was not able to meet and prepare for Easter. We decided to take a recording of our choir from 2018 singing I Will Arise and remix it with three of Questhaven's residents singing the lead parts today in 2020: Bryce, Blake, and Rob. We invited the residents of Questhaven to help us form a visual choir (with proper social distancing). This is just our humble offering to our Lord Christ with our love and gratitude for His outshining Presence in our lives today. As our founder Flower A. Newhouse said, ''Make every day of your life the miracle of Easter become alive in you.''

Lecture: From Christ's Transcendence to Ours

The beauty of the Lord is upon us. We can sense His presence, which is everywhere for the Christ Spirit belongs to the total world and to everyone who believes in God. The Earth celebrates many wonderful festivals. The most difficult to understand, perhaps, is this one that we're honoring today, and why is Easter more difficult than the other celebrations? It is because it tells us about an event that happened way in the high heavens in super-consciousness levels, and it seems to us that we can hardly understand it.

In Thy Name Lord Christ

Lecture: From Christ's Transcendence to Ours

Our Lord Christ is a very strong person, and when He looks at you, it's as though the wind passed through you, the wind of purification. If you've been unsettled about something and indecisive, when He looks at you, suddenly you know that you will be decisive and you will do what is right to do this very incarnation in His name.

This indeed is Christ's love. When we have spiritual love, it does not look upon others as being ugly or unwanted. One sees the need and meets that need.

Lecture: Lord Christ to Thee Our Hearts Are Open

We want to study as deeply as possible every day of our lives as to the power, and the glory, and the wisdom of our Lord Christ. It is said by the Holy Ones who know, that every planet throughout the cosmos that has life on it, has a Christ Regent in charge of the spiritualizing of its humanity. Certainly this is true of our own planet.

Lecture: The Mystical Side of Christianity

What a glorious season this is! And it's wonderful because of one person. There are people in this world that don't like to be reminded of someone being worshipped. How limiting that is, how narrow, how adverse to their own spiritual growth. You and I owe an obligation to every one who has given us light. And there's no one to whom we owe a debt comparable to that which we owe our Lord Christ.

Lecture: From Christ's Transcendence to Ours

There should always be mention of the Lord Christ in every church. If there is not enough remembrance of Him, our planet will be in peril and our humanity will be less than it might be unless they remember Him. We are standing at a critical period when we need, more than ever before, to depend upon this One who was Jesus and who is now the Christ, Emmanuel. And so, what are we doing to honor Him? What have we given Him of ourselves this incarnation?

There are times in the inner worlds when all of our Lord's disciples and pupils are called together. These are great moments of instruction. And always He is telling His pupils, ''Do with the work I have given. See to it that it is attended. Be faithful and do not be afraid to grow and to drop the old and the unnecessary.''

And so, time goes on and we meet many Christmases but in each one let us work for realization as to what He is. Do not accept the limited view of Him that some people have. ''Oh, He is so gentle and meek.'' And He is not. He is strong and mighty. But He doesn't use His strength and might for anything but good.

Lecture: Christmas Is the Time of Spiritual Wonder

The Lord's birthday emphasizes our own yearly rebirth. It is not pleasant to look back, is it? Of course, we have always been less than we are now. It is a wonderful thing to look ahead and to realize even dimly what could take place and how. With our Lord's help and His ever-stirring impulse in us, we will be empowered to carry out our spiritual destiny, and walk up that high hill of attainment in the realizing the Christ nature within us, and the exemplification of it in our world.

Lecture: Holy Expectancy: Living the Life

When we try to live the life, we must be aware always that there are certain qualities that go with godliness, that go with the Christ Spirit. Because our Lord told us how wonderful God is, we began to seek the Divine, but we can understand our Lord Christ. When we flounder, we have only to think of the Christ Spirit. That is our keynote.

The Christing and the Serving

Lecture: The Message the Glory of Easter Teaches Us

There are two things that a person can do to best reveal their worship of the Christ. One is to work for overcoming or resurrection from the smallness that has claimed us so that we can grow in spiritual stature, grow in inner knowledge and awareness, grow in the power that issues from Christ and the Christing of your own mind. There must be a Christing of ourselves, going on consciously, always.

Lecture: The Message the Glory of Easter Teaches Us

There are Lords other than our Lord Christ. There are Masters. But to be a Christ means that someone out of all humanity had to be intuitionally linked up sufficiently in goodness, strength, nobility of character, in greatness of self-giving, in unparalleled courage, to be able to sense the Planetary Logo's pattern of Christhood. So full was His response to what the Divine Plan wanted humanity to realize—Conscious Divinity.

Easter celebrates the highest event that has ever occurred on Earth. All of us are aware if we are intuitional of the reverberations of that great reality, something transcendent happened after the Crucifixion which has been echoing its sound throughout the ages and will into the ages that confront us. That sounding of the exultation of the Lord will be the means by which we too will be quickened to our own achievement of our individual Easters.

Lecture: The Heart of Christmas

So it is well for us to have Christmases, and to think on these deeper things and to be reminded that the Christ nature is having birth in us. Every day and every second, as we keep Christ in the present before us and centered in our inmost thoughts, that wonderful nature is unfolding. When it does, Christmas will be a permanent experience within us.

Lecture: The Heart of Christmas

There is so much to remember, to stand up to, of the opposing forces that would deny us from good Christmases. But all of that can be wiped out in a second if we remember Christ—if He becomes Christ to us in the present tense, no longer a holy baby in a manger, though God knows He was once that too. We think of Christ in this present moment, in the effulgence of His Lordship degree.

Lecture: Be Alive All Your Life

Let us remember that we have a purpose in life, and we can express it as we wish. However, we should make it definite. And if you love our Lord, let Him make you over. Let Him work on you unceasingly. Don't feel that you have to do it all yourself. It's there ready to be received, the help is, the strength is, the giving-ness of God.
