Lesson Information

Lesson Overview


“Into the hands of every individual is given a marvelous power for good or evil---the silent, unconscious, unseen influence of his life. This is simply the radiation of what man really is, not what he pretends to be.” ~ William George Jordan


At the end of this lesson, you will have considered where you are at now and the actions needed to chart your course to a new horizon, identifying trip-hazards and protective behaviors needed along the way, in a variety of situations.

  • How have you experienced wonderment? How did it make you feel?



Contemplation Journal


You are encouraged to keep journal notes of your studies. These may be a word, a quote, or an image that has resonated with you at a particular place on your journey. Journaling can help provide great personal insights, self-awareness opportunities, and keep you on track with your studies. As new revelations appear, reflecting on past journal entries can provide a good indication of your progress and personal growth.


For this lesson, here’s a few ideas that you may like to use to help get you started.
