By Rev. Theresa Commean It was with a great deal of trepidation that I entered into the studies of Wicca. I graduated from a Baptist college with a degree in Youth Pastoring and have worked in various churches for the past twenty years. When I met my husband, he was a pagan. I had quite a few pre-conceived notions about

Final Essay Like so many of the seminary students I have taken some time to write this essay. With pages and pages of notes and posts (some lost in the forum oblivion :o) and more ideas, experiments and happenings resulting from the course, it’s hard to put in a few words all the benefit this class has provided. From the

What you gained from this course? The main theme I learned from this course is a greater and more profound understanding of belief structures as a whole, both of the Eastern and Western view points.

The “Human Energy Fields” was as wonderfully detailed overview of the body and its many components. The energy fields and chakras discussion was vital for what was to come in the rest of the course.

But in focusing on Jesus, the human being, rather than Jesus the divine, I was able to take away from the

Rev. Travis Richardson What did you learn? This course has provided to me valuable insight in to the history of a Chaplain and the role that Chaplains have provided. Although I was aware there are Chaplains in the Military, Police Forces, Fire Departments, Hospitals, Prisons and so on, I was unaware of the roles that the Chaplain actually provided. Not

I have found the above course to be very stimulating in that I have not studied most of the subjects before, and therefore I have certainly improved my knowledge of some aspects although I realize that others will need more attention. The question of meditation was a difficult one as it was not easy for me initially to concentrate sufficiently

We have seen many differing theories of Spiritualism during our studies here and are now at the gates as it were of our Final time. Does this make us “Masters” of Spiritualism? I believe that it has helped increase our knowledge a small bit and helped us to be able to answer a few more of the probing questions with
