Tea with Rev Barry ~ Episode 2 You Are Spirit First - But What Does That Actually Mean?

Tea with Rev Barry~ Episode 2 You Are Spirit First - But What Does That Actually Mean? What does it really mean when I say “You are Spirit first”? In this episode of Tea with Rev Barry, Rev. Dr. Barry King explores what it means to recognize ourselves as Spirit while still living a very human life. Being Spirit doesn't mean being happy or peaceful all the time. We experience joy, sadness, grief, anger, relationships, disagreements, mistakes and uncertainty. Spirituality isn't about escaping those experiences—it's about becoming more aware of ourselves while we're having them. When we remember that we are Spirit, we can begin to create a little space between what happens to us and how we respond. We can still have feelings, boundaries and responsibilities while asking: “How do I want to respond to this experience?” Barry also explores the idea that Spirit first doesn't mean Spirit only. We're here to live. To love people. To learn. To laugh and cry. To create, explore, make mistakes and experience ordinary human life. Perhaps our purpose doesn't always need to be some enormous mission. Perhaps part of our purpose is simply to experience life, allowing those experiences to expand our awareness and understanding. And perhaps our relationship with the Divine isn't about reaching something far away. Maybe spiritual growth is partly about remembering a connection that already exists.
