PATH OF GOD

Carol Ruth Knox was an inspiring and motivated minister who gave a series of profound talks in 1986 -1987 that grew her small congregation of 20 people (at Unity of Walnut Creek) into a center of three Sunday services with 450 people attending. Her secret: she saw God in flowers and trees, in dogs and birds, in the desert and the ocean, and in the affluent and the indigent. God included every-thing both the animate and inanimate. And everything in God’s Creation created an opportunity for spiritual growth. Dr. Knox chose to live in Antioch, CA as opposed to nearby affluent Walnut Creek because it caused her to be closer to God. Each Sunday she shared how she had encountered God in the past week and the lessons she had learned. Reverend Knox challenged her audience with quantum physics, philosophy, Eastern Religions, and whatever subject that caught her interest. She possessed the unique gift of being able to explain the most complex ideas so that people could understand; and, she expected her congregation to be sophisticated and to accept responsibility to understand. She expressed her full heart acceptance of God when she spoke: seeing God in the messy details and the brilliant shining moments of life. She never ‘talked down’ to those attending her church. As a result, each Sunday, attendees would leave with tools and inspiration to see God in their daily lives. Tragically in 1987, Carol Ruth Knox was murdered by an intruder in her home. Her powerful and truly relevant messages still resonate today and can help one achieve a life of meaning, of service and of spiritual mastery in today’s world by embracing The Path of God.

INCREDIBLE JOURNEY

"THE INCREDIBLE JOURNEY describes the spiritual 'unfoldment' of the Reverend Carol Ruth Knox, one of Unity's most dynamic ministers. She inspired a generation of congregants and young ministers, including me, to search deep within themselves for that Divine connection which has the answers to our most profound questions. I recommend Carol Ruth's THE INCREDIBLE JOURNEY to anyone seeking guidance and support for their own spiritual exploration." - Reverend Beth Ann Suggs, PCC; Unity Minister This is not the beginning of your Incredible Journey. You have been on this path for a long time and have turned to this book as yet another step in a life-long process that has been pushing, working and expanding you. Do you desire to be more fully aware of this process? Or maybe a life crisis has led you here. Life continually grows us. We are never finished. The force, the energy responsible for our growth, continues to expand us into progressively deeper levels of consciousness. And so, this book is for those of you who hunger to be involved in your own spiritual process and want to take responsibility for your own inner lives. It is also for those who feel desperate or confused. It is for all who wish to contact the spiritual force that drives you, the force that will not let you find contentment in the external trappings of life. This book is Reverend Carol Ruth Knox's autobiographical account of her personal unfoldment and her map to aid other spiritual seekers on their path. It is a challenging, exciting, re-vitalizing process, truly an Incredible Journey.
