About Us
Our Story
Logos is an interfaith spiritual community providing opportunities for learning, sharing, and worshipping together for all who seek a closer relationship with God and humankind. Logos is a work, not a place. We emphasize holistic healing, church services and education. We seek to grow together, helping one another awaken to the Divine nature within ourselves and within all human beings, and to joyfully share this sense of oneness of spirit and purpose. We encourage comparative studies with an emphasis on a mystical approach to the Bible.
Logos was incorporated in the state of Arizona on 26 May 1983, as a church and spiritual university, by Rev. Anne Puryear and Dr. Herbert Bruce Puryear. Herb and Anne are a unique healing and teaching team, often described as "the psychic and the psychologist." Anne has over twenty-five years of experience as a psychic and spiritual counselor. Herb has over thirty-five years as a clinical psychologist and spiritual researcher into the nature of the soul (psyche).
Our name, Logos, is taken from the book of John, where the Greek word "Logos" is translated as "The Word," which is understood to refer to the COSMIC CHRIST. Our practical Christian mysticism is based upon the respect and enjoyment of the world's rich spiritual traditions which all bear witness that God is the One Force at work in the universe. Every human being has been made in His "image" (bearing His power and pattern) and we are destined to conform to His "image" as we awaken to our oneness with Him.
Rev. Puryear's psychic work for the last twenty years has earned her international recognition as one of the most helpful, hopeful, motivating, and life-changing spiritual counselors in the country. She has become an expert on teenage suicide through her studies of both the scientific and the esoteric research on suicide and life after death. She writes with the same humor, honesty, enthusiasm and charisma that characterize her lectures and sermons. Read Anne's story about Coping with Suicide.
Our Philosophy
Logos is based on the premise that there is ONE GOD in the universe. The nature of this God is best expressed by the phrase: GOD IS LOVE. His spirit is at work in every soul, thus there is a direct contact with the Divine within everyone, which brings love, healing, and guidance to everyone. We stress the practice of prayer, bible study, holistic healing, meditation, tithing, and responsible lifestyles.
Our Books
We feature works by Herb Puryear and Anne Puryear. We occasionally feature books on the psychic Edgar Cayce, and on Jesus, suicide prevention, meditation, spirituality, reincarnation, and past lives.
