OUR HISTORY
Spark of Divinity Congregation started in 2007 to provide healing services, spiritual guidance and a place to voice concerns. The name, Spark of Divinity Congregation, was chosen with the careful consideration that the congregation is the most important, not the sanctuary, not the building, not an individual. We hope this passage inspires you as it did us:
“Hiding Man’s Divinity” by J.F. Newton
The Gods, having stolen from man his divinity, met in council to discuss where they should hide it. One suggested that it be carried to the other side of the earth and buried; but it was pointed out that man is a great wanderer and that he might find the lost treasure on the other side of the earth. Another proposed that it be dropped into the depths of the sea; but the same fear was expressed – that man, in his insatiable curiosity, might dive deep enough to find it even there. Finally, after a space of silence, the oldest and wisest of the Gods said: “Hide it in man himself as that is the last place he will ever think to look for it.” And it was agreed, all seeing its subtle and wise strategy.
Man wandered over the earth for ages, searching in all places, high and low, far and near, before he thought to look within himself for the divinity he sought. At last, slowly, dimly, he began to realize that what he thought was far off, hidden in “the pathos of distance” is nearer than the breath he breathes, even in his own heart.
