About The Shining Center

A Place to Remember Who You Are

The Shining Center is more than a community—it’s a spiritual home for those who feel there’s more to life than meets the eye. Here, we gather to explore a deeper truth: that we are not just human beings trying to be spiritual, but spiritual beings living a human experience.

Founded by Rev. Russ Sorensen, The Shining Center is grounded in New Thought teachings and practical spirituality. This is a space for awakening, self-realization, and living from the inside out. Whether you're on a path of healing, seeking clarity, or simply curious about your true nature, you are welcome here.

What We Believe

We believe that every person carries a divine essence—an inner light that cannot be extinguished.
We believe that awakening to this truth transforms how we live, love, and lead.
We believe that life is sacred, consciousness is creative, and connection is everything.

What We Offer

At The Shining Center, you'll find:

• Guided meditations to help quiet the mind and center the soul

• Classes and workshops on spiritual awakening, healing, and conscious living

• Inspirational messages that speak to the soul without preaching to the mind

• A supportive community of fellow seekers and spiritual explorers

Why We're Here

This is a space for those who are ready to go deeper—for those who resonate with mystery, metaphysics, and meaning. It’s not about dogma. It’s about discovery. Together, we create room for transformation by honoring the light that lives within us all.

We invite you to explore, reflect, and remember:

You are not broken. You are becoming.
