Ganss, Jr., 1930 - 1994, Divine Science minister, Washington DC, titled: TAKE THE FIRST STEP What is the first step in accomplishing our heart's desires? Frustration, despair and worry are not the answers--they merely delay the good that is in store for us. Yes, the first step in demonstrating our wishes is to see it already done in our minds. If you

Good morning! This is Rev. Teresa. This morning I am speaking about having a heart of love, peace and compassion.

Our reading for today is from the Divine Science Daily Studies by Rev. Robert Winterhalter. He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace. –Luke 8:48 Plato once said: “Neither ought you to attempt to cure the body without the soul; for the reason why the cure of many diseases is unknown to the physicians of Greece is because they are ignorant of the whole, which ought to be studied also, for the part can never be well unless the whole is well.” Positi

Good morning! This is Rev. Teresa. I have a reading for you today from the August 20th Divine Science Daily Study. Our goal is to attain the spiritual consciousness that enables us to live by Grace. How do we do this? How do we receive the Presence and Power of God within us? We cannot achieve it vicariously through a minister…or practitioner. Listening to a lecture or a teacher or minister will not do it. They can only help us along the way. We attain this goal by indiv

Today’s talk is on Our Dip Stick. Our automobiles, at least the ones powered by gasoline, all come with a dip stick under the hood. The dip stick is used to check the oil, to see if the oil is low. If there isn’t enough oil, then we burn out the engine, it blows up so to speak, and the car no longer runs. If you add too much oil, then it floods the engine, burns components, and the car won’t run. Therefore, the dip stick is a pretty important tool to maintaining an automobile

Good Morning! This is Rev. Teresa. I have a reading for you from the August 8 Divine Science Daily Study titled: THE POWER OF NOW So much of our human suffering is the result of our attitudes towards what has taken place in the past and what we look forward to in the future. We are consumed with sorrow and regret about the mistakes and missed opportunities of the past; and we fret over what the future holds for us individually and the world as a whole. What a waste of time an

Today I’m speaking about having a Prosperity Consciousness. Most people consider their income to be fixed at a preset amount. The term “fixed income” automatically implies a sense of limitation. That you get this much to live on and that’s it. In Truth our financial wealth can only be limited by our ability to receive. First lets identify our source. Most people think of their source as their employer, retirement fund, or the person who doles out the money. Or, they think of

Good morning! This is Rev. Teresa. I am speaking this morning about Joyful Journeys. I just returned on Wednesday evening from a week-long family vacation in the Kaanapali area of Maui, Hawaii.
