Discovering Eric Butterworth

It's easy to say that we practice the Presence of God. Today's program will explore the practical value of practicing the Presence of God, as well as Eric Butterworth's thoughts about what practicing God's Presence requires of us. Leadership students from Unity's Spiritual Education and Enrichment Program will be guest panelists. 

This episode focuses on Eric Butterworth's view of the nature of God and humankind's relationship with God. Eachness and Allness are not mere intellectual concepts, but practical ways of understanding ourselves as expressions of God.

Eric Butterworth tells us that in dealing with life's challenging experiences, we have forgotten that our true nature is love. The love that we are can lead us to a greater realization of wholeness and abundance. Join host Rev. Tom Thorpe and guest Mona Krane as they continue exploring Eric Butterworth's Life Is for Loving.

"Our real nature," Eric Butterworth tells us, "is love. Love is not 'finding the right person,' but being the right person." Join host Rev. Tom Thorpe and ministerial student Mona Krane for the first of a two-part discussion of Butterworth's plan for a recommitment to love outlined in his classic text Life Is for Loving.

In the final broadcast of our prayer series based on Eric Butterworth's book The Universe Is Calling, host Rev. Tom Thorpe and guest co-host Carolynn Conley explore Butterworth's views about prayer for others, and group prayer. This episode will also address the question Is prayer always answered? 

In the third of four broadcasts focusing on Eric Butterworth's teachings about prayer in The Universe Is Calling, host Rev. Tom Thorpe and guest co-host Carolynn Conley explain Butterworth's view of affirmative prayer, share Unity prayer treatments, and demonstrate how listeners can create a very personal Book of Common Prayer that will address the prayer needs in their lives.

Host Rev. Tom Thorpe and guest co-host Carolynn Conley will continue a prayer series based on Eric Butterworth's book, The Universe Is Calling. In this episode we explore the powerfully simple science of prayer and describe grace and the Silence. Butterworth tells us, "Wherever I am, God is ... and I AM. ... Thus the only equipment involved in prayer is that which you have wherever you may be: your mind."

Join Rev. Tom Thorpe and guest co-host Carolynn Conley as they begin a four-week series based on Eric Butterworth's teachings about prayer. The programs will include material from Butterworth's book The Universe Is Calling. In this first broadcast we will look at what prayer is, and clarify some common misunderstandings about how prayer works.

In this final broadcast of our Spiritual Economics series, we listen to Eric Butterworth's discussion of what he calls "the wonder of giving," along with what he sees as the role tithing plays in the giving process. We'll also bring our series to a conclusion with a look at Butterworth's inspiring view of how every one of us can contribute to lifting the prosperity consciousness of all humankind.

In this third broadcast of our series based on Eric Butterworth's book Spiritual Economics, we look at what Butterworth calls "the money enigma." We also explore Butterworth's method for reversing financial adversity and finding real security in a constantly changing world.

In this second of four broadcasts based on Eric Butterworth's book, Spiritual Economics, we explore the ways that faith, gratitude and our attitude toward our work contribute to the development of a strong consciousness of prosperity.

In this first of four broadcasts, we begin an exploration of the Prosperity Principle as presented by Eric Butterworth in his book, Spiritual Economics. In this broadcast, we look at spiritual substance-the Divine energy that is the starting point for everything that exists. We also look at visualization-an ability that allows every person to work with spiritual substance.

How would life be different if every person lived from the awareness that he or she and all people really are living expressions of God, inseparable from the One who Is the Source of All? Although it is the New Year, in this second of two "Christmas gift" programs, host Rev. Tom Thorpe and his guests explore Butterworth's thoughts about the Divinity of humankind, and how we can live from an awareness of our own and everyone's Divine nature.

In preparation for Christmas, Discovering Eric Butterworth wants to help listeners give humankind the gift of a raised consciousness. When we lift the consciousness of all humankind, we grow in consciousness ourselves. The first part of our Christmas gift is to practice the Presence of God. Eric Butterworth tells us: "To live constantly as if you believed that the allness of God, the Divine potential for wholeness, were present in every experience of your life and every function of your body." Join us as host Rev. Tom Thorpe and guests explore Butterworth's exciting, practical method for practicing the Presence of God.

With the coming of the holiday season, there's more on most people's "to do" lists than at most times of the year. What's the "one needful thing" that will help us accomplish all that needs to be done and enjoy the holidays? Listen and join in the conversation as host Rev. Tom Thorpe and his guests listen and respond to Eric Butterworth's comments about the story of Mary and Martha, from the Gospel According to Luke.
