A
past book, The Gift of Change, by Marianne Williamson, is
still available in our bookstore. It describes in what areas of our life
we can change our perspective and move toward oneness, forgiveness and
grace.
Recently many of us from UCCH attended a seminar featuring Edwene Gaines, an ordained Unity minister and woman of wealth. She helped me realize how important prosperity is to our spiritual growth as we move forward to express the Christ within us all. Her book
The Four Spiritual Laws of Prosperity is available in the Bookstore. I highly recommend
each of us start applying the principles she talks about to lead happier fuller lives. Edwene’s definition of prosperity is:
* A vitally alive physical body to provide a comfortable worldly home for the spiritual bodies that we are
* Relationships that are satisfying, nurturing, honest and work all the time
* Work that we love so much that it’s not work, it’s play
* And all the money we can spend

Turn-Around:
When your life is in crisis
by Richard and Mary-Alice Jafolla

Turn-Around
purposes that no matter what the situation appears to be the real
problem is an inability or a subconscious unwillingness to allow the
inner wisdom to unfold its plan through you. The book offers 7 brief
steps to help you realize you live in a supportive universe whose
benefits are available to you at all times. Turn-Around is a brief
process best done alone, because this wisdom resides within you and
available at all times, requires no rehashing of the past and you only
ask "where am I now?" and "where do I go from here?"
As
advertised this book is written from a psychologically sound and
spiritually centered perspective it's a spirited and earnest book
written with compassion and humor. Best of all, at 136 pages it's short
and to the point yet delivers straightforward help.
