We’re here to help.
Soul Center is based on our spiritual principles and practices that reflect them. These include: Meditation, Affirmative Prayer, Life Visioning, Sacred Service, Spiritual Study, Spiritual Community, and Tithing A detailed description of our principles and practices click here.
Soul Center embraces openness, community, and growth.
Some Soul Center members are Christian, and their personal encounter with the spirit of Jesus as an embodiment of the Christ Consciousness richly informs their spiritual lives.
As a community, we don’t embrace Jesus as the only savior and Christianity as the only path to God and to eternal salvation. Instead, we embrace New Thought — Ageless Wisdom history including the Gnostic teachings of Jesus and the earliest Christian mystical sects. We also embrace the founders of the uniquely American New Thought Movement including Emmanuel Swedenborg, Ernest Holmes, Howard Thurman, and transcendentalists such as Ralph Waldo Emerson and others.
While the Bible is referenced in our services and classes, the version that is primarily used is a metaphysical, Gnostic-inspired edition. Also referenced are scriptures from the world’s wisdom traditions including the Bhagavad Gita and Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, Tao Te Ching, the Zohar, works by the transcendentalists, and more.
Soul Center teaches that Jesus was not the great exception, but rather the great example. Classically, the New Thought-Ageless Wisdom tradition regards Jesus an enlightened being, one who attained cosmic consciousness, or liberation from a sense of separation from the Source of all that is. Jesus, like Siddhartha Gautama (The Buddha) and others are revered as way-showers and exemplars of unconditional love, selfless service, and self-mastery.
