Wayne Holmes’ Set Your Course shares six months of reflections that will give readers a path to spiritual freedom and help them connect to their soul and inner spirit. Not only does it provide healing from past religious abuse, but also abuse of nearly any form, and beyond that, it provides a path towards taking solid control of one’s religious and spiritual journey.
Accept that this Higher Power is understood in different ways and by different names in various religions and cultures, and open our lives to hearing the Divine Voice in any way it chooses to communicate to us. There are many roads that lead Home, and there are many ways in which we hear the call to return. Some experience The Divine through religion, some through nature, and some through the quietness of a stilled mind that has been searching. It doesn’t matter what we call the experience. It doesn’t matter what religious wording we assign to the experience. Y

For many years I was afraid of other religious belief systems, and I refused to accept their experience of The Divine as real. How foolish. Who am I to judge another’s experience? When judging others, I limit my ability to see The Divine in other religions, other nations, and in people outside my small world of religious faith. The names we assign to our Higher Power don’t matter. Neither do the titles we give for religious, or more accurately, spiritual experiences. What matters is to accept others’ experiences as valid, learn from them, and open our minds and hearts to hearing the Divine Voice in any way it chooses to communicate with us.

It wasn’t until I donned a clerical collar that I came to understand how people viewed religious leaders differently. Some were comforted by my presence while others seemed ill at ease. “Before long I realized that many had been damaged through judgment, guilt, rejection, and condemnation by a religion or by someone religious. I’m happy to report that these people do not have to languish in fear, depression, or resentment. “In Every Path Leads Home, Wayne Holmes has created a brilliant and very gentle way out of religious abuse and intolerance into peace, happiness, and personal freedom. “It is a way to heal us all.� –Rev.

Mr. Holmes’ words resonate way beyond the printed page—they vibrate within your heart as truth. I absolutely LOVE this book! It is the best bridge I have seen joining traditional religion, spirituality, and the spiritual nature of us all. “The integrity of the author in revealing his own story is authentic, reminding me of the humanness of all of our experiences. I felt wrapped in the arms of loving kindness throughout the whole book. I predict this book will enlighten all who read it.�

Wayne Holmes’ Every Path Leads Home is a beautiful book of acceptance. Our lives on this plane of existence are of short duration, and we are all “headed home.� Different faith experiences define “home� differently, and each suggests a path or paths. For anyone who has been abused by the supposed rules and strictures of a church or congregation or pastor, for anyone who has come to see religion not as a faith experience but rather as a set of ironclad rules, for anyone who has grown weary of the struggle to find God by whatever name: Every Path Leads Home is a must-read.
Every Path Leads Home:
The only thing that matters is the experience. It might not be just one experience but often a lifetime of hearing in subtle and at times not so subtle ways, the call of The Divine. By assigning a name to the experience, “ we limit our ability to recognize The Divine. Eastern religions speak of enlightenment. Some Christian “ religions talk of being saved. Native American’s might refer to an experience of being one with the Earth.
Opening to your spiritual journey, healing for the past, peace for the present. Direction for the future, Religious Recovery. Wayne Holmes
