Week of August 30, 2026

Do you truly believe that right where you are today, you are completely deserving and capable of experiencing all the good you seek? How often do you affirm your inherent Good/Godness? Today, Rev. Kit Holmes takes us back to Metaphysics 101 and the Truth of who we really are!

Since her introduction to Science of Mind teachings in 1999, Rev. Kit Holmes has immersed herself in studying and living the principles of spiritual consciousness. Her six highly acclaimed, commercially released albums of original songs reflect them all. She possesses a masterful ability to “hide Spirit in plain sight” in lyrics that encompass the heartbreak and humor of being both fully human and divine.


And she does so without ever sounding “churchy.” Rev. Kit has been sharing her amazing musical ministry gifts through keynotes, concerts, classes and retreats around the United States since 2004. Rev. Kit is an ordained Centers for Spiritual Living minister, a certified life coach and a grateful “recovering perfectionist” who now makes her home in Santa Fe, NM with her partner Trisha.


You can listen to all of Kit’s music and learn more about her at www.kitholmesinc.com where you’ll also find all her social media links.
