I am happy to introduce you to this new meditation program taught by Tim Werts.

Tim is a recent graduate of my Meditation and Awakening teacher Training, and my joy in introducing you comes from the unique and profound way that Tim has combined the Eastern wisdom of Non-Duality with Judeo-Christan scripture. Tim, like many of us, looked beyond the Christian church in pursuit of spiritual meaning, and like many of us, he found what he was looking for and then realized that it was right there, in a different form, hidden in the tradition he had left behind.

In this program, you will embark upon a unique exploration of both meditation and scripture that will open up a deep sense of inner ease and freedom. Tim’s teaching style is personal, powerful and heartwarming.

If you feel moved by the description on this page, I hope that you will join Tim on a journey of discovery.

“The thing that we have to face is that life is as simple as this: We are living in a world that is absolutely transparent and God is shining through it all the time. This is not just a fable or a nice story, it is true.”
~ Thomas Merton
What are
the Keys to the Kingdom?

In this program, you will discover that the Keys to the Kingdom are inner practices that give you direct access to the realization of divine union.

The good news of the Bible was that the kingdom of heaven is here.

In other words, union with God, which means with the essence of Life itself, is available to all of us right now.

Not later. Not after death. Not when the conditions are right or after we’ve earned it.

Union with our divine source is always available now.

In this program, you will experience this revolutionary message of immediate fulfillment.

By reading and meditating on key scriptures the Judeo-Christian enlightenment tradition will be revealed to you.

Those of you who grew up in the Judeo-Christian faith, and may have left it behind, will be amazed at the non-dual messages it contains.

And because many of us did grow up within this tradition, a tremendous inner-healing can result from experiencing its wisdom.

What you will discover is that at its core, The Kingdom points to the ultimate truth that we are all One with the Universal source of existence.There is no separation, there is only God, Cosmic Consciousness, Life itself and nothing else.

The Kingdom, rightly understood, is a non-dual experience of Oneness.

This program offers twenty days of guidance and meditation that will reveal how each and every moment is a precious gift from God. You will be moved to accept the joy and love inherent in life, as well as life’s inevitable suffering, equally a part of the gift of life.

In his own words, Jesus offered an invitation for us “to have life in all its fullness”, and this same promise of the Kingdom is beautifully articulated by Ralph Waldo Emerson when he wrote:

"I become a transparent eye-ball; I am nothing; I see all; the currents of the Universal Being circulate through me; I am part or parcel of God."
 
Program Overview

Meditation and the Keys to the Kingdom is a 4-week program of 30-minute guided meditation practices, offered daily on weekdays, that will give you access to the inner teachings of the Judeo-Christian scripture.

The meditation will be centered on specifically chosen scriptures that address the wonders and the challenges of being human to illuminate a path beyond our limited sense of self and into the discovery of our true nature.

Through these practices you will realize that God flows through each of us guiding and directing our path to awakening.

The program also includes three 90-minute workshops in which you will have the chance for deeper discussion and guidance that will support and enhance your practice and allow you to explore the insight and wisdom that grows over the four weeks.
