How to be resilient.
One definition of resilience is: the capacity to recover quickly from difficulties. This past year, many of us have faced adversity, trauma, tragedy, threats, or significant sources of stress—such as family and relationship problems, serious health problems, or workplace and financial stressors. Let this three-minute video be a meditation on resilience, taught by the rivers of the world. |
Through our principals we recognize that God created all of us in the image and that we all belong together. We affirm that today we take action and remember that we all belong to the human race.
Our Five Principals

Spiritual Adulthood with William Frank Diedrich
Five part Zoom Class.
This five-part class is an opportunity to join with me and with others on Zoom where you will enhance your ability to:
• Wake up and grow up—to live as a spiritual adult
• Connect spiritually with your Higher Self (God, Source, Whatever you call the spiritual in you.)
• Heal emotionally and physically at the causal level through effective emotional and spiritual healing
(Which leads to physical, relational, and financial healing)
• Become a center of influence in this often chaotic world
• Understand how to work in resonance with Universal Law
If you know me, then you know I offer no quick fixes when it comes to spiritual and emotional growth.
This book and class are a deep dive without the fluff into the journey that you are taking. There is no doctrine
nor specific belief system here, as each individual journey is unique. We live in a childish world with constant fighting
and anger. Spiritual adulthood is about growing up and waking up—helping us to be the lights needed to assist
our world in growing up, and helping us to be centered and whole in the midst of things breaking apart.
The book and the class are inexpensive. If you live in the USA you may purchase the book from my website and
receive it with free shipping.
In this class you will have opportunity for reflection and application, visualization/meditation, and
to ask questions. The book, Spiritual Adulthood, will serve as a text for the class. This will be an interactive experience just like my in-person workshops.
The class is $29.95 for five sessions and begins on Tuesday, June 1. 7:30 pm to 8:30 pm, Eastern Daylight time.
The series continues June 8, June 15, June 22, and June 29— all at 7:30 PM EDT.
I will also offer the class at 11:00 AM Beginning Thursday, June 3, 2021, at 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM.
Classes will continue June 10, June 17, June 24, and July 1, all at 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM EDT.
Recordings will be made available in case you miss the live version of a class, or if you want to hear the lessons again.
To take the class, everyone must register at my website. https://www.humanadulthood.com/workshops.html
Class only (If you already have the book): $29.95
Class and book together: $41.95.
The book is also available on Amazon and Kindle. (See links at my website.)
More info on the class and book at my website.
To purchase only the book there are several places on the website.

Metaphysical Bible Interpretation
Taught By: Mike Rocque
Monday April 25 th – Monday June 27 th
Monday Nights @ 6:30 pm – 8:00 pm
Format: Zoom
Metaphysical Bible interpretation will give you an opportunity to learn a new and deeper way
of interrupting the Bible that is used in Unity. Knowing how to metaphysically interpret a
scripture can add more depth to scripture that is literally understood and perhaps give meaning
to those scriptures that, on the surface, do not make sense. There is an extra bonus too! If a
person can metaphysically interpret scripture, then other books, movies, and even songs can
be metaphysically interpreted. The possibilities are endless.
This class will be limited to 10 participants and will fill fast, so register ASAP! I may consider
adding a second class depending.
You must register for this class by contacting Mike @ michael@couragetothrive.com
