All of us share an interest in sacred chant known as "kirtan," a devotional practice of singing, drumming, and participating in group energy for the purpose of elevating the spirit, building community, and realizing interconnectedness. The practice originated in India millennia ago, but has been popularized in the West by singers such as Krishna Das, Jai Uttal, Wah!, Dave Stringer, Deva Premal, Bhagavan Das, David Newman (Durga Das), etc. This list will be a place to share information about loca …

Some people drift through their entire life. They do it one day at a time, one week at a time, one month at a time. It happens so gradually they are unaware of how their lives are slipping away until it's too late. The time to be happy is now, regardless of any circumstances or beliefs, it is your birth right to be free and happy in every moment. Here we maximize every moment of our existence and live our life to the fullest. This group is here to remind us of all the things we want to achieve i …

Like that old, soulful U2 rock anthem, do you sometimes find yourself singing "I still haven't found what I'm looking for," and somehow the song's sentiment connects with your spiritual journey?  Perhaps you feel emotionally distant from the Christian spirituality and Sunday worship you grew up with.  Curious to find out why you’re having these feelings/thoughts/disconnect?  But more importantly, curious if there is a better way to think about, experiment with, and practice faith in the 21st Cen …

Are you sick of partisanship? Have you felt powerless to do anything about it? Let’s change that! I believe, collectively, we can make a difference. We can come together as Americans to solve or at least constructively engage in the enormous difficulties we face globally and as a nation. I have a simple idea. It’s not new, but it may not have been used precisely in this way before. Practically all religious denominations talk about it in one way or another; it is the power of the intentional pra …

Do you remember the Motown Sounds, the records when you knew and understood all the words and could sing along with the record? Well if you do, this Meetup is for you. Once a month we will get together and listen to the hits we grew up on, share memories, laugh, play cards, and/or board games. This will be our time to relive the "good old days."

God is doing a new thing. New songs, new revelations and a new sound has been established in the earth. If you are what they call "New Breed." Then this is where you need to be. Aren't you tired of not being understood? No one to tell you what is really going on in side? Being looked at as a "Reject in the church?" If you can identify, you qualify. It took me a long time to figure out why I was so different, and why my struggles seemed endless. It took me some fourty years to get it right; the f …
