Rev. Doris Hoskins, ordained Unity minister and author, has practiced and taught the principles of prosperity for over 30 years. She has studied under, participated in, and/or has taught the prosperity concepts and methods of great spiritual leaders and teachers, such as, Charles Fillmore, Edwine Gaines, Stretton Smith, Eric Butterworth, Katherine Ponder, Diane Harmony, David Owen Ritz, and Mary Morrissey. Despite witnessing spiritual growth within her in and in others, Doris observed that Unity Worldwide Ministries, individual ministries, ministers, and participants of these prosperity doctrines and programs did not result in the demonstration of long term financial sustainability and prosperity.

Although, I do not have the breadth of experience Hoskins has had in research and the teaching of prosperity, I have studied and taught many of the above mentioned authors and also have witnessed that even with the exploration and practice of rich prosperity principles, somehow, many remain stuck in “survival mode” and experience financial insecurity.

As Hoskins began to study Ken Wilber’s Spiral Dynamics and Integral Theory, she gleaned prosperity principles through a new lens. Wilbur states that foundational prosperity teachings are not wrong, but are insufficient if they do not evolve to reflect higher stages of consciousness of an individual or of an organization.

In An Integral Approach to: Creating Sustainable Prosperity: A Journey to Spiritual and Material Abundance Through Your Own Personal and Collective Experience, Doris Hoskins explores prosperity tenets through an Integral perspective. Let us also take a deeper dive into the Laws of Abundance and embark on this series together. Below, please find some of the concepts that will be covered in this year- long monthly distance course.
