If You Plant Roses
You Don't Get Carnations:
An Introduction to Spiritualism
Many philosophies and religions believe that each individual has a unique inner essence, a unique personality, known as the soul. Many of these cultures also believe the soul is immortal. Spiritualists have this same belief; we call this unique inner essence spirit.
Spiritualism is also the belief that the living can communicate with those who have passed. In this book, you’ll learn about different ways to communicate with those in spirit. You’ll learn about Spiritual gifts and blessings, and how to discover and use your gifts. You’ll learn Numerology as taught by Reverend Hill and what each number represents. You’ll learn about the power of the mind. Thoughts are creative and we are able to create and destroy with our minds and mouths.
Through Spiritualism, you’ll learn to understand the Natural Laws, one of which is what you give out comes back to you, that you harvest what you plant, that you reap what you sow. That if you plant roses, you don’t get carnations!
This book is about Spiritualism as Reverend Karen Hill teaches it at Memorial Spiritual Christian church. We praise God with Worship Services and by demonstrating our spiritual gifts of mediumship and healing in our church.
Our church is a memorial to the Collinwood School Fire of 1908, a fire that took the lives of 172 children and 3 adults. The parents of one of the children lost in the fire donated the land for our church. This is the story of how their donation has changed the course of history for many people. Every one of us who worship regularly at Memorial Spiritual Christian Church will tell you how our lives have changed because of what we’ve learned here.

Symbology of the picture: "We all know the story of the caterpillar, how limited he is in his body because he is only able to crawl. How he covers himself in a shell and appears to die, but comes out of its cocoon as a beautiful butterfly. The butterfly is not limited to crawling on the earth but can fly between earth and the sky. 'Just when the caterpillar thought the world was over, it turned into a butterfly', reads an anonymous quote." (Excerpt from "If You Plant Roses You Don't Get Carnations")
