Hi Reader,
You are not alone. No one is alone. The Divine has your back!
In the Seek Together community, we use "the Divine" as an umbrella term for a spiritual being or beings with whom we have a personal relationship. The Divine can be known to us as deities, spirit guides, ancestors, devas, angels, elementals, fairies, power animals, or the Ultimate Self - or all of these! I particularly like this term because it can be singular or plural and any gender or no gender.
We believe in the possibility that the Divine desires to have a relationship with us and wants us to be well and free from suffering. We can access this relationship at any time through our intuitive doorways. So make an effort to spend some quality time with the Divine!

This Month's Theme: π€ Engage With the Divine
This month Seek Together members are focusing on this aspect of the SEEKER Method to nurture our spiritual wellness. Members will explore this month's theme by responding to the Daily Questions, participating in the Theme Thursdays group coaching, and reflecting on this with their buddies during their weekly check-in. You can join us in this by asking yourself the following questions:
- How would I rate on a scale of 0-5 your current relationship(s) with the Divine?
- What most helps me engage with the Divine?
- What is one way I already engage with the Divine that I want to do more?
- How can I strengthen my relationship(s) with the Divine?
Blessings on your exploration of this month's theme and on your path!
How is Your Spiritual Wellness?
Based on 25+ years of experience and study of religion and spirituality, I have created the internet's premier non-religious spiritual wellness self-assessment.
It is applicable to most spiritual identities. It is made up of 32 questions about your actions and your feelings concerning your spirituality from the previous two weeks. Upon completion of the assessment you are emailed a rating of Poor, Fair, Good, Very Good, or Excellent with the number of points you have received.
This completely removes the guesswork out of discerning your spiritual wellness! You can even repeat this assessment every 2-4 weeks in order to track your spiritual growth and see your progress. And it's FREE!
April 2025 Member Cohort
Our LGBTQ+ non-religious, online, spiritual community only opens its doors to new members four times a year. We already have two wonderful new members confirmed for the Seek Together member cohort that will enter April 2025.
Unfortunately, the deadline to apply for this cohort has passed.
However, if you already applied and your application passed the screening, there is still time for you to get into this cohort! All you need to do is book your Zoom Call ASAP. The Zoom Call with Molly must happen before March 15th!
β
Did you miss the application deadline to join us next month? I am no longer taking applications for this group, but there's always next time! Applications are already being accepted for the next cohort that will enter our community July 2025.

Other Updates:
- We have a new feature added to our private Seek Together community platform that will help members stay motivated to log-in and answer the Daily Questions - Daily Streak Tracking!
- After a surge of fraudulent applications, appointments, and messages from bots and humans, I had to add 2-step email verification to the application and contact form. It saddens me that there is an additional hoop for potential members to jump, but this is the best solution I have found.
- I have added more information about spiritual wellness to the Seek Together website including 11 Tips for Improving Your Spiritual Wellness. Check it out at https://seektogether.lgbt/spiritual-wellnessβ
- I am 2/3rds of the way through writing The SEEKER Method for Spiritual Wellness: An Exercise Book. It will be filled with lessons, tips, reflection questions, and exercises for each aspect of the SEEKER Method. When it is completed, I will make it available to members for free as an interactive pdf ebook. I aim to also have it be available to purchase as a printed book to members and non-members alike.
- In response to many questions I have received in the live chat on the Seek Together website, I have created a Resources page to find and give support to our LGBTQ+ community. This is not a generic list of links, but resources that I personally recommend.
As always, you can email me your questions, requests, or concerns by replying to this email or ask your question on the Live Chat at SeekTogether.LGBT.β
Shine your light!
Blessings on your journey,
Molly Johnson, MDiv.β
