Help for Today with Dr. Edward VIljoen

Image
Help for Today  is a four-week class based on  Help for Today  by Ernest Holmes and William D. Hornaday, offering clear, usable spiritual guidance for navigating personal and collective challenges in a complex world. The class explores how individual consciousness contributes to a better world, how spiritual self-reliance strengthens confidence and clarity, how fear spreads and how it can be consciously interrupted, and how the practice of blessing reshapes both inner life and outer relationships. Designed for a mixed audience, this course emphasizes real-life application, personal insight, and ethical engagement with the world around us.  Registration here:   Help for Today Week One – Creating a Better World This chapter begins with a simple but demanding idea: the world we experience is shaped first in consciousness before it appears in conditions. Holmes and Hornaday are inviting us into a deeper question without ignoring social problems or retreating in...

What is Spiritual Study, and Why is It Important?

Image
  One of the five core spiritual practices at our Center is Spiritual Study. What is this practice all about?  There are a couple different aspects of this practice. First, it is the simple act of gaining knowledge of how our universe works--and in our teaching specifically, gaining knowledge of how our consciousness operates in the world. So, we can read books like the Science of Mind, take classes at the Center , and we can listen to the Sunday talks for nuggets of wisdom.  When we examine spiritual study a little deeper, though, we see that there is also, at the root of our practice, one very important aspect we want to be sure we haven't left out: our curiosity .

The One Thing That Can Set You Free—And It’s Not What You Think

Image
Holding on to anger is like carrying a heavy weight that never lets up. It drains your energy, colors your thoughts, and keeps you stuck in the past. You replay old hurts, expecting them to change, but they don’t. The only thing that changes is you—more tired, more bitter, more trapped. Forgiveness isn’t about letting someone off the hook. It’s about letting yourself off the hook. In his upcoming class on forgiveness, Dr. Edward Viljoen will break down what forgiveness really is—and what it isn’t. You’ll learn how to release the resentment that’s holding you back. You’ll discover a process that brings real peace, not just forced smiles or empty words. And you’ll see that forgiveness doesn’t mean forgetting, reconciling, or excusing bad behavior. It means freedom. This class is about taking mindful, easy, gentle action. You’ll dig into real-life struggles, reflect on what’s keeping you stuck, and take steps toward healing. You’ll walk away with tools you can use immediately—simple, pow...
