We seek to promote understanding, harmony and love among people by emphasizing what is universal in the teachings of the many paths and faith traditions.
We have chosen to learn about, respect and appreciate the diversity paths to Oneness, and to look for the universal truth contained in each one.
We are dedicated to serving the spiritual needs of all those who seek our guidance, counsel, and assistance, without regard to race, religion, socio economic status, sexual orientation, ethnic background, gender or age.
We are committed to personal, professional, spiritual, and ethical integrity and growth of all people, and in holding ourselves and each other accountable for "walking the talk" as ministers, guides, and teachers.

"People say that what they are seeking is a Meaning for Life.
I believe that what we are seeking is an Experience for Being Alive"
The boundaries and barriers which separate us are learned thoughts which are becoming less valid as improved communications and technologies introduce us to new ideas, customs and the spiritual depth of other cultures. We are at a point in history like no other, where the walls are crumbling and we are coming face to face with our fellow human beings. No longer does the concept of us vs. them, you vs. me ring true. The Spirit of Universal Life (SoUL) Ministry has a spiritual philosophy, which honors and values the fundamental beauty and wisdom in ALL religious traditions. We believe that there are many paths to God, and that all are valid and worthy of respect. God created humans in an amazing variety - we come in all sizes, shapes and colors and with different needs and tastes. Some people will be best nourished by one type of food while others will thrive best on something different. So, too, will different people be nourished spiritually by different traditions, is this not so? We believe that it is not the form of religious practice that is important, but the spiritual intent that underlies it. We recognize that God is in all things and in ALL people. The SoUL Ministry strives to promote true respect for all diverse paths to God. Respect is different from tolerance, for tolerance implies merely "putting up with" something you find disagreeable, whereas respect involves valuing, appreciating and accepting something for its' own true innate nature. "religious experiences connect us with a greater, or further, reality not accessible in our normal cognitive relations to the world"
Why does God allow trials in our Lives? (John 12:24-25)
Truly, truly, I say to you, Unless the grain of wheat that falls to the earth dies, it remains alone: But if it dies, it bears much fruit. There are two things you can do when trials, tests or tribulation comes your way.
