Most people associate the word "church" with a building, or an organized religion, but these are merely symbols that can be used to point towards the Kingdom of Heaven within.  As Jesus taught, "My Kingdom is not of this world", and so it must also be true that "My church is not of this world", but is a Present Experience that comes when we are willing to lay aside all false idols and open our mind to Eternity.  

Recorded June 15th, 2014 at a Sunday Service at the Living Miracles Metaphysical Center in Kamas, Utah led by David Hoffmeister and Nikita Sparks.  JP (Jason Press) opens and closes the service with improvisational piano music from the heart.

Jesus used parables to teach the masses. Similarly the Holy Spirit can use movies in an extremely helpful way to teach and help us heal.
For example, The Great Gatsby is a wonderful movie for looking right at the intensity, possessiveness and hatred that are parts of our special "love" relationships. What are we pursuing in this world? In pursuing love in form we go astray. There is no substitute for God's love and it is formless, changeless and eternal. God's love is what you are!

Enjoy this beautiful parable from David about his early days on the path and how important it is to allow all the emotions to come up and out. He realized that it was not going to be possible to feel love and joy if he did not allow himself to feel everything else. 
The more allowance we can give ourselves, the better. The water may become rocky for a moment but it is going to lead to smooth sailing and stillness.

Getting lost in "church responsibilities" - trying to maintain or grow something in form - is a favorite ego defense against the Present Moment for those who've devoted their life to God.  In this classic movie, "The Preacher's Wife", we see the main character get caught in this trap but then become lifted out of it through the help of an angel.
