FROM HUSTLE TO FLOW
In his book “The Four Pivots, Reimagining Justice, Reimagining Ourselves,” Shawn Ginwright challenges the prevailing notion of a relentless hustle culture that glorifies constant busyness and he urges us to embrace a more sustainable and holistic approach to life. Ginwright emphasizes the importance of finding our flow, a state of being in which we are fully engaged, aligned with our passions, and connected to our purpose. Join us to explore the pivot from hustle to flow, allowing us to tap into our inner wisdom and create a more just and compassionate world.
LOVING PROBLEMS MORE THAN SOLUTIONS
Identifying problems is an important thing to do, however, when identifying problems turns into loving problems, our lives become frozen. Possibility thinking requires a willingness and the practice of moving from problems and blaming to possibilities and creating. This week we’ll explore the power of pivoting day after day from problems to possibility!
EMBRACING COLLECTIVE CARE
Cityside Welcomes Rev Champion Fleming and Rev Ruth Littlejohn speaking on Wholeness & Inclusion
When we practice self-care as a holy commitment to our own well-being we are taking care not only of ourselves but also the community in which we gather. What does spiritually focused self-care look like for you? What does your body, mind and spirit desire for you to thrive? When we can answer these questions we can bring our whole, perfect and complete selves into service for the greater good. We will ask and reflect on the question – who am I becoming to be part of a thriving inclusive spiritual community?
The First Pivot: From Lens to Mirror with Minister In Training
The intersection of religion and the LGBTQA+ community has a history of judgment and condemnation. The meetup has frequently been the exact opposite of Cityside’s mission. It often is not safe, inclusive, with no path to living authentically. However, the book, The Four Pivots, offers an answer. As found in chapter one, when we cultivate insight and ask the right questions, we connect to our profound inner Truth that sustains us and empowers us to create authentic inclusion. Join us on Sunday as we explore this more deeply.

The Journey Of Awakening
Have you ever asked yourself, “why am I still dealing with this?”. Whatever “this” is, IS a part of your life and you will always deal with your life. The journey of awakening is not about getting to a perfect destination, it is embracing the process of continued growth everyday for the rest of your life. Join us this Sunday as we learn to embrace this journey with the practice of disciplined dedication.
Curing Spiritual Amnesia
In your day-to-day life, it is easy to forget the truth of who you actually are – which is Spirit having a human experience. ACIM teaches that you can consciously choose to live from this place of Spirit and release your strong identification with your body and your physical affairs. This can feel challenging when you are experiencing conditions in your physical body and your affairs that keep your attention fixed there. When you are able to make the shift to your Unlimited Spirit, you experience a new sense of freedom. Join us this Sunday as we explore how your spiritual practice can support this shift.
Voices In My Head
According to Michael Mirdad in The Heart of A Course In Miracles, the fear-based ego voice believes we are separate, hijacks the voice of Divine Guidance, and translates it into something less miraculous. The message of the Divine is always a message of Love inviting us “Home”. Which voice are you listening to? Explore the ACIM concept of Content (the voice of love) versus Form (the voice of fear).
Always At Choice
“The Spiritual World vs. The Material World”. We will be looking at spiritual practices for aligning consciousness with Eternal and unchanging God qualities such as Love, Wholeness, and Abundance and away from the finite and limiting world of form.
