Creation Spirit

Programs by Jim Young vary from one or two hour presentations to day long and weekend seminars and workshops. In each case, the program is more ore less based on one or more of Jim’s books, found on the Home page. Shorter presentations engage participants in the general spiritual principles and basic information contained in these sources. Longer programs involve participants on a more extensive basis, where they will not only develop new insights into living spiritually but also develop skills and understandings necessary for a life more fully attuned to spiritual expression. Shorter presentations, approximately an hour in length, also are available. Visit Come Hear Jim in Person on the Home page for current shorter presentation topics.

A brief explanation of programs and workshops follows. Others are available, and titles vary according to the emphasis desired. Also, several of the following can be combined to accommodate a weekend retreat format, leading participants to much deeper levels of spiritual purpose and demonstration. For example, moving from AWARE IN A WORLD ASLEEP to WHAT IF? and then concluding with AS IF FROM GOD makes for a highly transformative and powerfully healing weekend, beginning on a Friday night and extending through a day long program on Saturday.

Participatory Programs:

AWARE IN A WORLD ASLEEP: A Principled Way for Living Spiritually. Many are now engaging spirituality as a path of good for them. Having a sense that they are in this world but not of it hasn’t resonated as the real path upon which they are to tread as their life’s purpose, so they’re looking elsewhere. This presentation speaks to the elements that have influenced us in significant ways, and it makes a compelling case for a principled way of looking at life that opens the doors of Truth or Wisdom found only within each of us. These seven powerful principles provide the framework for a fulfilling transformation to the spiritual way of living:

1. When you become fully aware of what you are, you will be what you really want to see.
2. Being and staying in your spiritual awareness determines what is real.
3. Divine creation is the result of Truth activated.
4. Expressing the faith of God is the key to spiritual fulfillment.
5. Service to your inner Truth is the highest form of love.
6. Remembering to laugh at the idea of separation brings joy into celebrating the present.
7. I am my brother’s brother, not my brother’s keeper.

AS IF FROM GOD: A spiritual path for regularly exercising Highest Good. This is a highly participatory session that focuses on humility as the key to spiritual intimacy. There are many forms of prayer taught and used by those abiding spiritual and religious practice. This program suggests a regular spiritual practice as a way for initiating close correspondence with the still small voice heard in our heart of hearts. Sometimes described as listening or unceasing prayer, participants will be led to focus on a form of prayer life that opens and advances communication with one’s highest self. Results will be shared discretely among the group in order to help refine individual application of this simple method, one that reveals profound spiritual awareness.

Learned nearly a generation ago, Dr. Young describes the unceasing prayer method and shares examples of the inner voice that speak as daily inspiration in the form of a book entitled, AS IF FROM GOD. Participants should bring a journal or writing pad, along with their favorite writing instrument to the session. A laptop is suggested as a viable option.

EXPRESSING YOUR DIVINITY IN EVERYDAY LIFE: This program unveils the shadows of ego consciousness, so participants can come to understand the spiritual essence of being. Moving from a simple explanation of the source of daily burden to the essential ingredients for seeing beyond such matters, participants are led to develop basic understandings and tools for moving beyond their current limitations.

WEAVING A NEW LIFE FROM THE THREADS OF TRUTH FOUND WITHIN: This somewhat longer program invites participants to seeing life as metaphor, the purpose of which is to inform them of their spiritual relationship with life itself. Using the metaphorical translation of Biblical text as the foundation for spiritual meaning, participants should be able to reform their approach to life in ways that illumine their path to a fruitful spiritual demonstration on a daily basis.

WHAT IF?: A highly participatory program dealing with a compelling way to perceive life that leads us “out of the box” of limited, earthly thought. Moving from one’s current base of understanding to a wider and deeper view of life, participants learn to shift a more mechanical, unconscious means of functioning to a firm commitment of life’s real intention. Some writing and “going inward” is involved, so participants should bring writing materials along; laptops are a viable option.

FROM HUMAN DOING TO SPIRITUAL BEING, Reclaiming One’s Soul: Participants are led in a step-by-step fashion to go beyond current views of self to the essential ingredients of spiritual reality. This program requires nearly a day long workshop in order to treat the spiritually penetrating exercises properly. Once mastered, participants should be able to move beyond self-limiting expressions to those that inspire by the depth and breadth of inner power conveyed through daily demonstration.

REAL LIFE LEADERSHIP: presents a view of leadership that begins with an examination of how one is guided through life. The inextricable link between following and leading is examined, which places leadership at the fore of each day’s demonstration for one and all. Leadership thus takes on a very practical application of spiritual principle to the expression of Truth that speaks in the silence found within.
