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.

OVERVIEW Memorial Day gives us the opportunity to honor people who gave their lives for our country. What are you giving your life for? What deeper meaning is calling to you? Join us this Sunday as we remember those we have...

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.

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.

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).

“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.

The world’s current paradigm for intimate relationships is severely broken. The divorce rate in America is quickly moving past 50%, and still many more people stay in relationships silently suffering in regret, guilt, and obligation. It doesn’t have to be this way!

One of the primary, healing ideas in A Course in Miracles focuses on how to move from “special relationships”, which are based in fear, control, and the ego’s game of seeking but never finding love to “Holy Relationships”, which are anchored in forgiveness, generosity, care, and spiritual connection.

You can have deeply fulfilling, God-inspired relationships. You really can. Rev Mark is excited to show you how.

Are you in your right mind? What does this mean? This is not a question as to whether you are right or wrong, good or bad. This is a question of self inquiry, where are your thoughts, beliefs, judgments, opinions and considerations coming from? Is your mind moving from the spiritual source of you which is love or is it coming from someone or something else? Most of the time we are NOT in our right mind, that is the mind of love, spirit and wholeness.

Spring is here with all the rebirth that it brings to the world. This time of year gives us the opportunity to reflect on what needs to be rebirthed in our own lives. It’s easy to blame others for our problems and project our issues onto them, but true growth comes from taking responsibility for ourselves and our experiences. Join us this Sunday in exploring this shift in awareness that leads to renewal and transformation.
