===Opening===
 
Ham: Greetings, children, and my friends, I am Ham and I thank you all for once again gathering this evening. Tonight, our lesson is about spiritual liberty. Spiritual liberty is part of the experience of growing up in the spiritual awareness that has been called the Kingdom of Heaven. Spiritual liberty refers to your ability to make free decisions. Spiritual liberty is referring to the state of being when your not subjected to your own patterns of behavior, your own reactions. No longer are you chained to old reaction patterns to situations. Suddenly you find yourself with the ability to change your reactions, and this is freedom.

===Lesson===
 
The freedom to live to your fullest potential involves first breaking the bonds of the past. Humans are held in slavery to their own emotions and fears. It is not life or circumstances or the weather that gets you down and holds you there, it is your inability to change your reaction patterns.

===Dialogue===
 
Q: I agree with what you say for the most part, but I kind of find what you say about our jobs and our lives patronizing. You sound like you have never lived with a boss who will not give you a second chance. There are a lot of people who live just one paycheck away from living in a box. I think some of our fears are justified because of what we face each day. It doesn't seem to me like God is whispering in your ear, do it this way and you won't get downsized. You sound like someone who has never been downsized.
