We talk about controversies in the early church and today.

Marci offers a great exercise for listening deeply to others.

We explore following literal laws of the church vs. the law of love.

We talk about Laura’s love of rocks and her gift of petoskey stones.

Marci recommends "Ordinary Mysticism :Your Life as Sacred Ground" By Mirabai Starr

"Christ, as a particular concrete manifestation of the Holy Spirit, must die in order for the disciples to develop an individual relation to the Holy Spirit, that is, the projection must be withdrawn. This is the"very important step forward beyond Christocentrism."

--Carl Jung

"The Spirit is destined to be incarnate in man or to choose him as a transitory dwelling-place. "Non habet nomen proprium," (he doesn’t have a proper name) says St. Thomas; because he will receive the name of man. That is why he must not be identified with Christ. We cannot receive the Holy Spirit unless we have accepted our own individual life as Christ accepted his. Thus we become the "sons of god" fated to experience the conflict of the divine opposites, represented by the crucifixion."

--Edward Edinger
