The sound on our live stream of Rev. Steve’s talk was unfortunately too muffled to be able to understand much of the message. We have EQed this recording to be a bit clearer and have included the text of the slides Steve showed during the message.

SLIDE 1

The Unfolding Infinite Field of Possibility
Rev. Steve Colladay

The mystery hidden for ages and generations…which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.
Colossians 1:26-27

[Near the beginning of his message (about 2:00 minutes in), Rev. Steve showed the following video.]

SLIDE 2

Who am I? Who are we?
Who have we come here to be?

SLIDE 3

The primary work of the interim time, no matter the circumstances, is for a church to do the hard work of discerning who they are and are called to be in the absence of the former minister(s).

SLIDE 4

Whatever situation we are in now, whatever person or people we are relating to now, contains the key to both healing the past and releasing the future.

SLIDE 5

“We can be someone different than we were in the past, releasing the future to be different as well.”
– Marianne Williamson, The Gift of Change

You Are the One
You are the Critical Mass that can affect a change in consciousness and in the story of Unity Church in Albany.

SLIDE 7

When one door closes, another one opens…

SLIDE 8

“A door has been reached, a threshold crossed. What your mind still would deny your heart cannot. A tiny glimmering of memory has returned. ‘Come back, come back,’ it will say to you. ‘Come home, come home,’ it will sing.

SLIDE 9

“We are writing a new first page, a new Genesis. It begins now. It begins with the rebirth of a Self of love. It begins with the birth of Christ in you and in your willingness to live in the world as the Christ-Self.”

– A Course of Love

FAITH IN ACTION THIS WEEK

Who am I? Who are we?
Who have we come here to be?
If this were my last song….

SLIDE 12

If this were my last song…
Have I left a little kindness?
Have I eased a little pain?
If so, then I’m glad I came.
For that, I’m so glad I came.
If this is my last song,
What do I leave behind?
What do I pass on
If I am out of time?

Following Rev. Steve’s message, the following song by Daniel Nahmod was sung:
