The Hero’s ‘Spiritual’ Journey (and Other Dreams)
My first ‘sermon’ (although we refer to them as messages) held at Unity of Fayetteville on October 16, 2011. Rita Graham was a guest singer and with Annette Olsen (the Music Director), they created amazing versions of One Moment in Time AND To Dream the Impossible Dream.

Audio is about 34 minutes long with a guided meditation about 23 minutes into the message that lasts about 10 minutes.
