Study
Groups
What are ASFG Study Groups?
A Search For God Groups are one of
the most important aspects of local activities. They consist of
small groups (2-12 people)
that meet in a private home for two hours weekly to meditate and
pray together, to study the A Search for God books, and
to apply the spiritual principles presented there. These books
were written and tested over a period of eleven years by the first
SFG Study Group, of which Edgar Cayce was a member. They provide
a balanced, supportive and safe approach to spiritual development
and learning to love.
How can I get involved with a SFG Group?
Check to see whether there
is a group in your area. You are invited to visit any of them,
and are, of course, welcome to continue to meet with them on a
weekly basis if you so choose. You do not have to be an A.R.E.
Member to attend. Please click on Get
Connected, complete the appropriate section and submit the
form if you would like more information.
What if there's no SFG Group nearby?
If there is no group close to you, you may want to start a group
in your own home. If so, please contact Yuene (info above). If
you are not in Northern California or Northern Nevada, contact
the A.R.E. Search For God Study Group Program at 1-877-428-2734
(toll free).
Is there a fee to participate in SFG Groups?
There is no charge for these meetings, though a donation may be
collected.
Is there anything I should read before I participate in a SFG
Group?
If you would like to prepare yourself further, you may want to
read these books which provide a solid grounding in the Cayce
readings:
- There is a River by Thomas Sugrue
- The Edgar Cayce Primer by Herbert Puryear
- Many Mansions by Gina Cerminara
- Meditation: Gateway to Light by Elsie Sechrist
Where can I get these books?
These books are in paperback and usually available for sale at
Region events, from libraries, bookstores,
A.R.E.
Headquarters online bookstore, or through our bookstore.
Please contact Meg Linden at 415-663-1488 or meglinden@msn.com
for book and product information and ordering. If you join a SFG
Group, you will also want copies of A Search for God books
I and II. (return to top)
The spirit of the Search for God group is learning how to love,
and its principle is to learn by comparison. All seekers will
find that the true spirit of their own respective backgrounds
and the spirit of the information being studied are compatible.
The information is universal in nature.
The central theme which draws like-minded people together in
Search for God Study Groups is the realization that there is more
to us and to the meaning of life than we see in our present physical
manifestations and circumstances. For many, this realization helps
them look at their life in a more positive and joyous light, with
a lot more depth than they suspected until then.
