Episode Description
In a world of peace none of us would need to be a warrior, fighting to protect ourselves, home, or family. But what do we do while waiting for peace to come? In order to consider our options in an imperfect world, we must first look at how we use terms of conflict. What is the difference between use of force and violence? Is being a warrior in a specific setting the same as being a Warrior? And do all Warriors serve in the realm of physical conflict? And why has the concept of the Warrior-Priest begun to show up more than before in history? If you long for peace, but do not want to be a victim, join us for a session that will provide a realistic view that will provide solid footing in a world where peace is not yet.
Birthright of Power

This program is for people who have the curiosity, courage, and/or drive to look deeply inside themselves and find the door that places them on the path to personal power. We will guide you into searching out what power means for you, finding out how you can access it, and the role you will play in changing the world for the better.
We do not come offering an answer. There is none. There are only approaches and insights. We do not come stating that we know the truth. We can only share the truth as we have come to know it to be. We can share our stories, our struggles, our failures and successes. We can only share these with you with hope, tears, and laughter. But we come with one firm foundation: You have power. It is your birthright and the world needs you.
Join us on our journey, share your journey, and let us become all we were created to be and leave the world a better place than we found it.
