    “Unity” - A Faith Born in 1889

    On our Interfaith Connection podcasts these past three years, Rev Dave and I have explored many faith traditions: Baha’i, Buddhism, Christianity, Confucianism, Hinduism, Islam, Jainism, Judaism, Taoism and Zoroastrianism. This month we’d like to share with you an exploration of the “Unity” faith tradition. Although this tradition was born in 1889, it is still little known to many. Join us as we dive into an exploration of a spiritual faith tradition that helps us develop a deeper understanding of ourselves, God and the world.   Interfaith Explorers, with Rachel and Rev. Dave Lyman, is brought to you by Spiritual Life Center. Spiritual Life Center is an Interfaith, Unity community located in Sacramento, California for spiritual seekers and life explorers. We honor the many paths to God and support people of all faiths in learning and applying positive spiritual principles in their daily lives.

    “The Golden Rule – Ethic Reciprocity”

    There is a basic rule of humanity that seems to appear in all faith traditions – it is the Golden Rule.  Listen as Rachel and Rev. Dave explore ethic reciprocity (you’ll have to listen to understand the term!) and how it fits into our lives and in the faith traditions of the world.

    The Mystics of Interfaith

    Our October podcast steps back from interviews and takes a look at the role of mysticism in interfaith on three levels.  First there are the mystical arms of some faith traditions.  Secondly we will look at mystical rituals and protocols of religion and spirituality.  Finally we will look at mysticism from different movements.  This is a diverse and eye opening journey into the world of mysticism and the part it plays in interfaith.  Join us for the journey!   Interfaith Explorers, with Rachel and Rev.

    The Legacy of Leone Thorne

    Our September 2023 podcast takes a look at the other side of the coin in searching for spiritual answers.  Leone Thorne grew up in a Lutheran household attending a church in Rio Linda, California.  She found her spiritual answers and bloomed right where she was planted.  In doing so, she extended the legacy of her family at the home church she grew up in, which is now over 100 years old.  She has been the organist at her church for over 65 years. From the beginning of her life, she has been very active as a worshiper, and now shares her amazing journey with us.   Interfaith Explorers, with Rachel and Rev.

    Rev. Christine Bouten – On the Quest

    The August podcast unites us with an old friend – Rev Christine Bouten.  She is an ordained interfaith minister, serving at Spiritual Life Center for 9 years.  She is a life-long learner with a golden thread of training with teachers, shamans, and gurus.  The learning has taken her to Japan, India (at an ashram), Hawaii for shamanic training, Egypt, and special training at Stonehenge.  Join us as we find that the quest brings us home from where we started.    Interfaith Explorers, with Rachel and Rev.

    Janism – An Ancient Religion

    Our June podcast explores the little known religion of Jainism.  This faith tradition is active mainly in India yet there is an active community in the Sacramento area.  The faith is based on non-violence and doing no harm in all actions – even to the level of wearing a mask to not ingest flying insects. We look at the Jain approach to forgiveness, to reincarnation, to rituals, to love and marriage, and many other areas.  Join Rev Dave and Rachel Lyman as they explore a faith tradition that is fascinating and austere in its approach to living.   Interfaith Explorers, with Rachel and Rev. Dave Lyman, is brought to you by Spiritual Life Center. Spiritual Life Center is an Interfaith, Unity community located in Sacramento, California for spiritual seekers and life explorers.
