A.R.E. Meeting for 7/25/22

Leader: June
 
Six spiritual erudites continued with the chapter on “Destiny of the Body.” We read two sections: “What is Meant by the Resurrection of the Body?” and “How Should We Regard the Experiences of the Physical Body?” We have one experiment:
 
Experiment: Make a list of those things for which God seems to have given you stewardship or care. Attempt to behave in specific ways which would demonstrate a more careful, responsible sense of stewardship. How could you better invest, put to use or nurture these things? Try working with a consciousness of the three principles of stewardship just described.
 
Three principles:

1. It is our responsibility to apply in the world the resources over which God has given us stewardship.

2. To receive a greater amount of physical resources or to receive higher, spiritual resources, we must first be faithful with our stewardship of what we now have at hand.

3. Everyone to whom much is given, of him will much be required.

A.R.E. Meeting for 7/11/22

 Leader: June
 
Six serious souls started a new Chapter on “Destiny of the Body.” We read the first three sections and are at “What is Meant by Presenting Our Bodies a Living Sacrifice?” Our two experiments for the week are:
 
Experiment 1: Practice bringing a greater abundance into your life and the lives of others. Give of your excess – your time, your money, your talents, your energy – in some area that seems to need it without any thought of what you might “get” in return.
 
Experiment 2:  Complete the exercise in visualization for your body described below. Try it regularly for several days.
Get comfortable
  1. Get comfortable
  2. Focus a minute on breathing
  3. Move mentally through areas of the body
  4. Work with visualization and awareness on each spiritual center
  5. Feel your body being a channel of light and pray for others.
