About Rev. Wally White

Rev. Wally White is an ordained Unity minister and has been a truth student for over twenty years, concentrating mostly in Unity teachings, as well as other studies in Religious Science and A Course in Miracles. His teaching centers on discovering our powerful Oneness with God. He began this spiritual journey learning from the amazing Rev. Dr. Della Reese Lett. Her lessons and support changed the trajectory of his life. Rev. Wally’s passion is interpreting the metaphysical lessons from the Bible. “By using metaphysics, (looking for deeper meanings using Unity’s Metaphysical Bible Dictionary) the Bible transitions from a historical book of stories to what Rev. Della called the best How-To book ever written. It helps guide you right now today into living your best life.” Rev. Wally is a speaker, teacher, writer, actor, singer, and most importantly a child of God going about living the very best life he can and helping others to do the same.

Forgiveness is one of the most sacred—and most challenging—tasks we face in the hallway of life.

When a door closes and pain rises, the heart can harden under the weight of anger, regret, or betrayal. Yet healing cannot unfold until we release the stories that bind us to the past. This Sunday, August 9th, Rev. Luz explores forgiveness as a spiritual practice. Through powerful stories of grace, courage, and unexpected compassion, we can discover that forgiveness is not about excusing what happened—it is about reclaiming our wholeness and allowing Divine Love to move through us once again. Join us as we step toward the light that only forgiveness can reveal.

When life shifts and a door closes, we are ushered into the hallway—a place where emotions rise, questions surface, and the soul begins its quiet work. This Sunday, August 2nd, Rev. Luz will explore the spiritual practices that help us navigate this sacred in‑between space. Through the stories of those who have walked through profound loss and transformation, we discover that even in the darkest hallway, love is present, guidance is near, and a new threshold is already forming. Come be reminded that you are held, supported, and never alone in your unfolding. Our guest musician this week is Bob Grubel.

This Sunday is Friendship Sunday – invite a friend, family member, or co-worker to join you for an uplifting Sunday service at Unity of Roanoke Valley. Stay after the service and enjoy a community potluck where you and your guests can connect with our supportive and loving community.

Welcome to the Hallway; When Life Closes a Door

A 4-part series.

There are moments in life when a door closes so suddenly—or so quietly—that we find ourselves standing in a strange, in‑between place.

The hallway.

It is the landscape of transition, where the familiar has fallen away and the next chapter has not yet revealed itself. In this first lesson of our August series, we explore the spiritual terrain of the hallway: its discomfort, its invitations, and the inner work that helps us move through it with courage and grace. Whether your hallway is brief or long, personal or collective, there is wisdom waiting in the shadows and a light already forming at the next door. Our music this week is by Janice Cusano, Music Director for URV.
