Sunday Service: In the Beginning

Rev. Dr. Temple Hayes, is a spiritual trailblazer for our time. Born in a rural Southern church-going community in South Carolina, she knew from the beginning that she was different from those around her.

After a heartbreaking childhood and a traumatized youth, she built an outwardly successful professional career in the corporate world, while struggling with alcoholism and a hundred different fears. But through it all, she felt a longing for spiritual connection and held a lingering sense that she was here for a reason. Even as a child, she had heard a voice that she knew to be God, telling her she was destined to make a difference in people’s lives. When she was introduced to a Unity Church in Greenville, SC, Temple heard and experienced the message that she was indeed loved by God, a message that put her on the path to true healing.

Temple is now the spiritual leader at First Unity Spiritual Campus in St. Petersburg, FL, and a key member of the Leadership Council of the Association of Global New Thought. Her popular radio show The Intentional Spirit reaches millions around the world via Unity Online Radio. Her book When Did You Die? is anchored in her work to fast-forward people to the impassioned and energized living they so richly want and deserve.

Temple is the founder of Life Rights, a nonprofit organization dedicated to the right of all to live the life of their intention in freedom and peace, and the SOFI Project, a non-profit organization that rescues and rehabilitates dogs and cats globally.
