What you think upon grows. Whatever you allow to occupy your mind, you magnify in your own life. This is the law of growth and there's no avoiding it. Whatever is the subject of your thought, be it good or bad, the law works and the condition grows. So if we desire to enjoy more of what we love and less of what we don’t, the secret is to stop complaining and start thanking. Metaphysical teacher Cathy Jean Norman has said, “When you let go... and are grateful... there is an orchestrating power of the universe that can bring you what you need when you need it.” On this episode, Darrell and Ed encourage listeners and each other to go on a daily thank-athon! Do this and you will quickly experience improvement in every area of your life. And during the second segment, U. S. Marine Corps vet, Jeff Spikes gets us to switch from spanking to thanking with today’s reading, “Thank and Grow Rich”.

Have you been considering the choices you make? Have you been putting them to the test, by considering if the answer you choose is worthy of a King? Most of us rarely, if ever, consider if what we choose is worthy of a King. Why not? The only thing that prevents us from enjoying our divine inheritance is the lack of love and appreciation we express toward ourselves. And it begins with our thinking. Are the thoughts we choose to entertain about ourselves and our circumstances worthy of a King? Or do we condemn, complain, and curse? On this episode, Darrell and Ed remind listeners and each other that the royal road to health, happiness and prosperity is paved with choices worthy of a King. The divine heiress of Beverly Hills, Jenna Jae crowns us with favor with today’s reading, “Put Love to Work”.

What is courage? It is the simply discipline to remain hopeful. We always have a choice to either trust in the overwhelming Grace of God working on our behalf or give our faith over to doubt, worry and scheme. On it’s face value the Biblical saying, “Faith without works is dead” can be taken literally; in order to get a demonstration it will take a combination of trust in God along with outer physical effort. However, there is  a more powerful interpretation and application: it is the realization that “the works” means practicing the discipline of right thought. On this episode, Darrell and Ed encourage listeners to cooperate with God’s Grace and bring about greater good through the noble and lovely use of our creative imagination and words for good. And, during the second segment, Unity Minister and Brave-heart Richard Maraj inspires us to live courageously with today’s reading, “Life is an Inside Job.” Help support the show! https://www.patreon.com/funniestthing Recorded @ CHOBO Studios in beautiful Van Nu

Since giving is the first step in receiving your giving makes you rich. If all that the Father has is ours, there is no need for skimping! Live generously in thought, word, and deed and you will succeed. A smiling man is an indication of a confident man, confident that all things are working together for good. A generous attitude makes us divinely irresistible to our unlimited inheritance. If up until now you have hesitated to share your gifts, today is the day to trust those gifts and share them generously. On this episode, Darrell and Ed inspire listeners to recognize that they are God’s ambassador of love and are always well compensated for simply fulfilling that role. And, during the second segment, Sparkling Rod Sweitzer reminds us that in the life the givers are the ones who always get the breaks and have all the fun with today’s reading, “Sparkle”.

Trust your crazy ideas! Do not allow ghosts of the past to divert you from your true calling. Inspired ideas seem crazy only because they do not conform to the old worn-out beliefs we have had about ourselves. These old beliefs and ideas are simply worn-out old ghosts of the past. Old ghosts of “You’re not qualified,” “You’ll never earn enough doing that,” “That’s too good to be true,” etc… Now is the time to ignore the ghosts and take a bold step out of the old and into the new. On this episode, Darrell and Ed encourage listeners with the ancient truth that “the highest is the nearest” meaning your greatest desire is the nearest to you. And, during the second segment, Ghost bustin’ Reverend Nancy Norman to our true calling with today’s reading, “New and Wonderful”. Nancy's webiste: www.UnityJoyofLife.org Today's Reading: I GO FORWARD INTO NEW AND WONDERFUL ADVENTURES IN LIVING. Today, go forward in confidence to a new way of life. Do so with joy and expectation. You are a vital part of the onward, upward, pr

We have all told lots of stories, some of which empower us and others that disempower us. Many people have been stuck on a self-defeating story for so long that their lives stay in a rut, and they wonder why. Others have latched onto life-giving stories that keep making their world better. Any story that portrays you as a creative, whole, and blessed being living in an abundant universe with infinite potential is a worthwhile one to tell. On this episode, Darrell and Ed remind listeners that we have a choice about our story, so let’s tell the one that takes us where we want to go. And, during the second segment, Captivating Cathy Norman, from Unity of Santa Barbara, motivates us to tell ourselves stories that give way to big, happy, surprises with today’s reading, “Luck”.

Whatever one feels deeply or images clearly is impressed upon the subconscious mind and carried out in minute detail. When you believe something is impossible, your mind goes to work for you to prove why. But, when you believe, really believe, something can be done, your mind goes to work for you and helps you to find the ways to do it. Think in the direction you really want to go with faith and love and the Universe will oblige. On this episode, Darrell and Ed motivate listeners to think awe-fully big and awe-fully good about themselves and desires, while looking forward to awesome results. And, during the second segment, Terry McBride, the Vince Lombardi of spiritual leadership, kicks us through the goal posts of life with today’s reading, “Yes!

A big kid maintains their childlike sense of awe and appreciation throughout their lifetime. They do this through their faith in the loving grace of God, always providing for them. Therefore, the only unforgivable sin is shutting ourselves off from fresh inspiration or guidance from God. On this episode, Darrell and Ed remind listeners that God knocks at the door of our consciousness every morning, excited to give us new inspiration and motivation – let’s keep the door open. During the second segment, Big Kid Kathy Beasley keeps us drinking from the fountain of youth with today’s reading, “Enthusiasm”.

Take off your “Ugh” boots and walk in the direction you want to go. Because we have the power to co-create with God, the words we utter have enormous import. Take care to speak only what you want to see manifested. It’s God’s will for you to have fun for a living. So let’s stop being offended and welcome our good fortune. On this episode, Darrell and Ed encourage listeners to state their desire, trust the process and know that divine timing will take care of the details. And, during the second segment, Courage Permission Giver Kea Meyers Duggan inspires us to release our limited perspective and allow our good to unfold with today’s reading, “New Beginning”.

Life is for you and never against you. There is no power in this universe that opposes your good. There is no force outside of you that can determine what happens to you. But there is a very potent force inside you that sets the stage for every event you experience. Luck is not a capricious gift that whimsically falls into our lap; it is a force we activate with our thoughts, feelings, attitude, words, and actions. On this episode, Darrell and Ed’s prescription for success is to start believing in health; start believing in prosperity; start believing in the Christ in those about you; start believing that your own divine Selfhood is rapidly unfolding. Act as though you believed these things and the results will surprise you. And, during the second segment, Magnificent Marty Thurman motivates the crowd with today’s reading, “Graciously Provided For”.

Discouraging yourself is not God’s will. Neither is living your life under the concern of what others may think. Let’s not hide our true power under a cloak of smallness or unworthiness. Instead, beginning today, let’s honor our desires and dream big! Give yourself permission to pursue your desire and every area of your life will be transformed for the better.

It’s never too late and you’re never too old to do something new, unless you think so. Today we get out of the mental habit of using our age to justify why we’re not trying new things. Discouraging yourself is not God’s will. The young at heart are always looking forward to new experiences, opportunities, and adventures. Let’s join them. On this episode, Darrell and Ed drive home the fact that the future is friendly, and God is cheering us on when we step beyond the limits we made up for ourselves.

A close relation exists between joy and prosperity. Observing this relation, we have erroneously concluded that prosperity is the cause of joy. The truth is that joy is the open door to prosperity. It is also a universally accepted truth that joy is conducive to health.  If this be true, and we all instinctively know that it is true, we should cultivate joy as a good medicine and secure investment. On this episode, Darrell and Ed motivate us to think of happy things, sing joyous songs, and radiate the buoyant health and accept the lavish prosperity which is divinely ours. And, during the second segment, Unity Minister and Meditation Teacher, Paulette Pipe inspires us to awaken the joy spirit within by affirming ourselves to be joyous.   Paulette's website: https://www.touchingthestillness.org/ Help support the show! https://www.patreon.com/funniestthing Recorded @ CHOBO Studios in beautiful Van Nuys, California Book today at https: //www.chobostudios.com Edited by PodShuttle https://www.podshuttle.io  Darr

People who we call lucky are those who have stumbled upon the working of the law of good fortune. The good news is that we can understand this law and live by it. On this episode, Darrell and Ed are live from Unity Village to remind listeners that the only luck charm we need is a consciousness of good fortune. Reverend Ginny Roll and Prayer Chaplain Janet Prince join us to share their inspiration, along with today’s reading “Mightier than Circumstance”, a Unity Classic that will leave you feeling lucky.

It’s the truth. The moment we take God as our partner, we discover we are inches from our goal, not the miles we’ve believed. The key is to let go of our efforts to make something happen, and entrust the entire process to the hands of a loving God. When we do we find we are guided by joy and joyful, nudges. Our only responsibility is to heed them. On this episode, Darrell and Ed, encourage everyone to decide to be the great men and women we are, not the struggling person we sometimes mistakenly think we are. And, during the second segment, Barnyard dancin’ Johnny Marfa from Johnny Marfa and the Lights, kicks us into high gear with today’s reading, “God‘s got this!” Join Darrell and Ed at Unity Village November 3-5, 2023 for the 1st Fillmore Metaphysical Bible Society Gathering https://www.truthunity.net/fillmore-bible-society/gathering-2023 Help support the show! https://www.patreon.com/funniestthing Recorded @ CHOBO Studios in beautiful Van Nuys, California Book today at https://www.chobostudios.com Edite

All reform is from within outward, you will always find that the outward is improved as the inward is improved. As you improve yourself, your outward circumstances will change for the better. The power released from within yourself will change your outward life. On this episode, Darrell and Ed shine light on the fact that life always corresponds to our mental attitude toward it. And during the second segment, Laughing Yogi Siri Gopal drives this point home with today’s reading, “Life unfolds from within”.   Check out Siri Gopal's website! https://sirigopalsingh.com Join Darrell and Ed at Unity Village November 3-5, 2023 for the 1st Fillmore Metaphysical Bible Society Gathering https://www.truthunity.net/fillmore-bible-society/gathering-2023 Help support the show! https://www.patreon.com/funniestthing Recorded @ CHOBO Studios in beautiful Van Nuys, California Book today at https://www.chobostudios.com Edited by PodShuttle https://www.podshuttle.io Darrell and Ed love you!

What God has in store for us is far better, far more beneficial than anything we could devise or even imagine on our own. Struggling to make things happen or trying to control events can feel exhausting like swimming upstream. However, when we choose to trust God is actively working on our behalf we cooperate with existing energies. No longer doubting and scheming, we begin to swim with the current as we enthusiastically follow joyful hunches. On this episode, Darrell and Ed share the shortcut to success in any endeavor is to scheme less and trust more. And during the second segment, Charismatic Carla McClellan encourages us to embrace the law of least effort with today’s reading, “The Stream of Life”. Check out Rev.

Unlimited good is ours when we start each day with the realization that the rewarding power of God is always at work in us and in all that concerns us. We are not bound to old conditions.

Life is not an emergency, it’s an adventure in grace and a laboratory for faith. Or as Florence Scovel Shinn puts it, “Life is not a battle, it’s a game; a game of giving and receiving.” Whatever we are believing we are giving and we always receive according to this belief. On this episode, Darrell and Ed share the benefits of taking a pronoid approach to life.  Pronoia describes a state of mind that is the opposite of paranoia. A person experiencing pronoia believes that the world around them conspires to do them good. And, during the second segment, the ever optimistic Katie McDonnell gets us looking forward to good fortune with today’s reading, “Surprise”.

The statement, “Behold I make all things new”, implies that we have the power within to transform any situation for the better. This bold affirmative exclamation snaps us out of a complacent negative state and opens our minds to inspiration. The instant we catch ourselves terrorizing ourselves with criticism or condemning any person, place, or thing, and then switch to blessing, we are always thrilled at how our circumstances begin to improve at once. On this episode, Darrell and Ed highlight the powerful tool of affirmative prayer to, indeed, make all things new. And, during the second segment, Soulful Sammy Smith motivates us to accentuate the positive with today’s reading, “Choose”.
