What we’re about
Luna is a nonprofit whose mission is to explore, practice, and share the most profound and potent modalities—both ancient and modern—that bring about healing and higher consciousness for ourselves, our communities, and the earth. We envision and also seek to model a way toward a kinder, more harmonious, and more sustainable world in which love and wisdom prevail. We host our own events at our beautiful space and also collaborate with like-minded partners to bring you opportunities to feel more alive and engaged in the world. Join this group if you're interested in classes, workshops, and events that help you:
- Heal old wounds
- Regain your health (whether physical, mental, or spiritual)
- Learn and/or deepen your understanding of various faith and philosophical traditions
- Be of service

[Note: We are just getting started, so classes, workshops, and events may be a little slow in coming until we gain our footing.]
Upcoming events (4+)
See all- Listening for Christ: Contemplative Prayer / MeditationLuna, Bath Twp, MI
In our time together, we will listen for Christ’s gentle whispers. At times, we will listen in silence, and at others, we will dwell upon the words and teachings of Jesus.
This group is open to anyone. If Love is your primary spiritual path, then you will likely find tremendous value in these evenings. If you believe the Bible is the literal and only word of God, then this group may not be a good fit for you.
Practice takes place on mats, cushions, benches, or chairs, which are provided free of charge.
Cost: Donation based (Cash, Venmo, or PayPal). Luna Center is a registered 501c3 nonprofit.
About the Guide—John V. Love:
John is the founder of Luna Center, author of the novel about Jesus "There Ariseth Light in the Darkness" (Amazon), and an ordained interfaith minister, having graduated from The New Seminary in 2007. It took him decades to work his way back to the innocent love he felt for Jesus as a child. Once he stripped away the confusing and unhelpful dogma of modern day Christianity, he learned Jesus’ true teachings which are devoid of fear and judgment. These profound teachings radically transformed his life and he now shares them with others. - The Way of Mastery (in person and online)Luna, Bath Twp, MI
(This is a hybrid meeting: in-person and Google Meet enabled for joining virtually. Find the link to join here.)
Seriously, why not this life? Why not right here and right now to wake up from the dream of separation?
We are a community of truth seekers who practice love and forgiveness as a path to return to wholeness, and we invite you to join us in a serene setting for learning, healing, and sharing about the Path of Love. This group is structured as an ongoing class to unlearn the lies of the world, find peace, and open our hearts. Teachings come mainly from the Way of Mastery books written by Jeshua and Jayem. The Way of Mastery series offer teachings centered on unconditional love, forgiveness, and maintaining a lightness of being. Here are a few selected quotes from it:
“You are not the body, you are not the personality your parents told you that you were. You are that consciousness, that awareness, that Love, that vast Light in which all of creation is arising – and the holy and only begotten child or offspring of God is eternally one.”
“Is it not time to release seriousness from what you call spirituality? Is it not time to transcend religiousness and to know that Spirit dwells within you as the voice and the whisper of God’s Love that brings you into being?”
“Be willing to take the leap off the cliff, to entertain what seems to be absurd and insane and outrageous and arrogant, according to the world. Dare to claim that you are as God created you to be and nothing in this world holds a candle to your radiance.”
Each evening consists of:
- Wellbeing practices to promote peace, presence, and confidence
- Illuminating teachings to expand your understanding
- Fellowship, sacred sharing, and support
This group is open to anyone. If Love is your primary spiritual path, then you will likely find tremendous value in these teachings and community. If you believe the Bible is the literal and only word of God, then this group may not be a good fit for you.

Primarily, this group is for people who want to heal. It is for people who want to let go of the false beliefs they’ve held about themselves and the world that have kept them in misery. It is the healing of our consciousness that is of primary importance. All other healing—be it physical, mental, or emotional—takes place with minimal effort once we cease believing the lies we’ve been taught. And the lies of the world are extensive and devious. They declare we are unworthy, unlovable, and undeserving of redemption unless we obey certain mandates. The grand deception says we are condemned to forever exist outside the ever present, all-consuming, unconditional love of the universe. The truth is that that vast love is not only our birthright, but also what we were birthed from and shall return to one day. That day could be hundreds or thousands of lifetimes away. Or we can use our free will to return to it this very lifetime. The choice is ours alone.We must be willing to question the beliefs that have kept us in ignorance. We must be willing to trade in our broken heart for one that is whole, inclusive, and overflowing with gratitude. When we do that, truth becomes our guide and leads us to the doorstep of forgiveness.
Forgiveness is like a ladder that has been lowered down into our self-created pit of suffering. When we climb up the ladder of forgiveness, we leave our old life and our old lies behind. Forgiveness is letting ourselves and others “off the hook” for having ever believed in certain situations that selfish actions could restore the peace, love, or acceptance that we were seeking.
Pain and resentment can never be healed by punishment or vengeance. They only deepen and prolong the agony. Forgiveness returns us to our natural state of harmony and leads to the peace of God.
May you know how deeply you are loved.
