Embracing spiritual philosophy in a modern world.

Center for Spiritual Living is based on the truth that arises in every culture — in the form of science, philosophy, and religion. We view religion as a source of wisdom for revealing the truth about the seemingly unknown forces that shape our universe. We participate as co-creators with the Divine. Our centers were founded by Dr. Ernest Holmes, a self-taught philosopher who rigorously studied the world’s spiritual paths for most of his life. In 1927, he wrote The Science of Mind, which synthesized the common truths he found in those spiritual paths. That book is the foundation of our teachings. We are committed to expanding the awareness that we are all One.

Rev. Sally Bartholomew, Senior Minister

Reverend Sally Bartholomew lives her passion for reading, spiritual growth, and study by actively engaging in hands-on learning opportunities, both in the classroom and from the pulpit. Her creative approach ensures that what she shares sparks curiosity, joy, and empowerment. She believes the greatest power of the Science of Mind teaching lies in its emphasis on empowering individuals to recognize their Wholeness and their Oneness with God. In 2008, a chance encounter with Louise Hay’s books and the Science of Mind magazine led Rev Sally to discover the Centers for Spiritual Living. She immediately felt at home. This pivotal moment ignited her journey of avid learning, which evolved into deeper Practitioner studies and service at the Oakland Center for Spiritual Living. Ever the devoted student, Rev. Sally dove into classes that deepened her understanding and commitment, eventually leading her to ministry. She graduated from the Holmes Institute School of Spiritual Leadership at the Santa Rosa, CA campus with a master’s degree in consciousness studies. Licensed as a minister of Centers for Spiritual Living in January 2020, Rev Sally was ordained in September 2023, continuing her mission to inspire and empower others through her teachings.
