Life Is the Classroom - Setting the Intention to Let Life Be Our Teacher

What if the thing you’re going through right now isn’t interrupting your spiritual journey? What if it IS your spiritual journey?

Join us for a Wednesday night of music, spiritual inspiration, and connection as Rev. Skip Jennings and Jami Lula explore Life Is the Classroom.
Our relationships, challenges, victories, disappointments, and unexpected moments can all become part of our spiritual education. When we approach life with intention, even difficult experiences can open the door to greater awareness and awakening.

If you’re looking for a welcoming spiritual community in North Hollywood and practical spirituality you can use in everyday life, come spend the evening with us.

In this meaningful Sunday message, Dr. Sydney Steen explores what it really means to live a life of love, service, and purpose, and why helping others doesn’t mean we have to fix everything.

Whether you missed Sunday’s message or want to experience it again, we invite you to watch and reflect on the unique gifts you have to offer.

💛 Watch the full message and ask yourself: What am I here to give?

What if peace doesn’t come from changing the story, but from changing where we stand in relation to it? Ram Dass invites us to step out of the role of the actor who is caught in every twist, reaction, and emotion, and become the witness who can observe it all with greater awareness.

The story may still unfold. The circumstances may still change. But when we remember that we are more than the story, we create space for clarity, compassion, and freedom.

Sometimes awakening begins simply by noticing: I am experiencing this story, but I am not only the story.

Did you miss Wednesday’s Soul Connection?

This week’s message, “The Guru Within,” is a beautiful reminder that the wisdom, guidance, and clarity we’re looking for may already be within us.

Take a little time to quiet the noise, reconnect with your inner knowing, and explore what it means to truly listen to the voice within.

✨ Watch the full Soul Connection here:

What if the most powerful question in a relationship isn’t, “How do I feel about this person?” but “How do I want to be in the presence of this person?”

Dr. Sydney reminds us that love can look like boundaries, accountability, stepping forward—or stepping back. We may not control what someone else brings into the room, but we do have a choice about what we bring.

That’s where love becomes creative.

It’s easy to talk about love. It’s harder to choose love when we’re hurt. It’s easy to believe in compassion. It’s harder to practice compassion when someone sees the world differently than we do.

Spirituality isn’t measured by how many truths we know, books we’ve read, or beautiful words we can repeat.

It is revealed in the way we live.

In our choices.
Our relationships.
Our reactions.
And especially in the moments when living what we believe isn’t easy.

The practice is the point.

What if you did not fail? What if you learned, grew, and became more of who you are meant to be?

Too often, we allow a past experience to become a permanent belief: “It did not work before, so it will never work.” But the past does not get to decide what is possible now. Even the things that once worked can become limiting when we are being called to evolve. Growth asks us to release old definitions of both failure and success—and remain open to something new.

You did not fail. You evolved.

Watch the full message from NHCRS and discover how changing your language can help break the chains of limitation.

We spend so much time searching outside ourselves for answers. The right book. The right teacher. The right advice. The right sign. But what if some of the wisdom you’ve been searching for has been within you all along?

Join Rev. Skip Jennings and Jami Lula for The Wednesday Soul Connection in North Hollywood as we explore The Guru Within and learn how spiritual listening, self-awareness, and practical spirituality can help us trust the Divine wisdom within.

Books, ministers, teachers, and spiritual communities can guide us — but our deepest spiritual teacher may be closer than we think.

Come for the music, inspiration, connection, and a chance to hear your soul a little more clearly.
