In this new video, you will find excerpts from my sharing with those that gathered for our time together at our July 2nd Sunday Study Group. Our topic was on Text, Ch. 4, III. Love Without Conflict. I'm aware that there are little scraps of fear and things that I want to hang on to in the illusion. And when I when Jesus talks about being honest with myself and with him. It can be easy for the ego to tempt you into feeling guilty. What I've learned in my interactions with Jesus is to you don't the guilt is not necessary. What is necessary is to acknowledge it with him and talk with him about it. You are always welcome to join us on any given Sunday. Also to our Wednesday study group and our daily Workbook Lesson.

My apologies for not being in touch for awhile. Since the last newsletter, we've welcomed our third grandchild, a boy named Gideon. He was a delight to hold and be with as well as his siblings over Easter.

One of the things that I learned from the Holy Spirit, many years ago, and Jesus, is that you can go to them for advice, and they'll give you advice, but they're not going to force you to do anything you don't want to do.

Congratulations Course Students! You have officially completed a year of working through the lessons in the Workbook for Students. You should feel proud of yourself, and also grateful for the wonderful gift you have given to yourself. For now, you know without a doubt that you are not alone. You know that you have a Friend inside of you, and to Whom you can turn to in any time of need. If you but ask, He will provide you with guidance - and it will be the right decision every time. In today's episode of Insights on A Course in Miracles, I explore this amazing life changing gift and share the next steps we are asked to follow as outlined in the Epilogue. We are now learning a new walk with the Holy Spirit which is going to fill our year with miracles! Happy New Year! Love, Rev. Paul

Greetings Miracle Workers, In today's episode of Insights on A Course in Miracles, I review the last "What Is?" reading, "What Am I?", plus I recap how you have become Miracle Workers over the past year. When we first started working with the lessons in the Workgroup for Students, most were living lives that felt lost, pointless, misguided, chaotic, miserable, and a litany of other depressing descriptions. Now, nearly a year later, you have not only begun to learn and truly understand that you are something much greater. You have also begun to experience that we all have a Friend who is helping us to awaken from the dream of misery and is teaching us how to truly become Miracle Workers. After a year's worth of dedication, hard work, and practice of the daily lessons, what a wonderful Christmas gift you have given to yourselves this year! Merry Christmas, Rev. Paul --- Your Donation Helps to Support our Ministry! Thank you for your generosity so we may continue to bring these videos to you. MiraclesOne - www.miraclesone.org

Merry Christmas Course Lovers, Now that we're nearing the Christmas holiday, I find it so appropriate to be reviewing the "What Is a Miracle?" reading because of the Miracle's similarity to the light of the North Star. For ages, people have used the light of the North Star as a way of guiding them home after being away on a journey. In similar fashion, God placed the Light of the Miracle within us to be used as a way to guide us back to our home in heaven with Him. In today's episode of Insights on A Course in Miracles, I share my experiences with the miracles of Light that the Course has helped me to find, and how they are constantly blessing me and those around me. Happy Holidays, Rev. Paul --- Your Donation Helps to Support our Ministry! Thank you for your generosity so we may continue to bring these videos to you. MiraclesOne - www.miraclesone.org

Cheers Course Students, In this episode of Insights on A Course in Miracles I break down the reading, What Is the Ego?, step by step and provide easy to understand examples of the ego, how insane it is, the role we play in the ego thought system, and how we can use the Light of the Lilly to heal ourselves anxieties this holiday season.

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone,This week we truly have good reason for a sense of gratitude because of our Creation by God. In this week's episode of A Course in Miracles we take a look at the Workbook for Students reading, "11. What Is Creation?". In this video I explain the miracle of our Creation by God and how we continue to extend Creation with Him in heaven. We also dive into the miracle of the Holy Spirit, the Light within us, and the Voice of the Holy Spirit who are here to help us awaken from our dream of physical form.Be sure to see our Gratitude Playlist at https://www.youtube.com/watch?list=PLArAxkq-rgwm9ridWl7gS7kDmNik3qGUg&v=HxG0fIuzjpIAs always, your donations are appreciated to keep our all-volunteer ministry providing ACIM resources for everyone.

Greetings Course Students,Unlike what many of us have been taught, the concept of the Last Judgment as explained by Jesus is not going to be a rapture and condemnation to hell event. Instead, it's going to be a wonderful event where we finally make a joyful and peaceful transition back into heaven. It is an event that we should be looking forward too and not dreading. To learn more about this wonderful experience, watch this episode of Insights on A Course in Miracles where I dive into two readings on this topic: “10. What is the Last Judgment?” (Workbook) and “The Meaning of the Last Judgement” (T-2.VIII).Many Blessings,Rev. Paul---Your Donation Helps to Support our Ministry!

Hello Everyone, Over the past week we worked on Lessons 297 through 303 and read number 9. What is the Second Coming? In this ACIM Insights video I share a simple explanation for the First Coming, the falling asleep of the Christ, the Second Coming, and how each of us can work on awakening now. Many Blessings,Rev.

Hello Course Students, If you have ever experienced the painful loss of a pet whom you loved with all your heart, then this is the ACIM Insight video for you. This morning while working on Lesson 296: The Holy Spirit speaks through me today; I was completely surprised by an unexpected path of healing that the Holy Spirit took me down. Within a few minutes I found myself once again grieving the loss of a pet I lost four years ago this month. As I worked through the experience with the Holy Spirit, I received many messages that I believe were meant for all of us to hear. I think the experience is a great example of one of the many ways that the Holy Spirit can heal and communicate through us in an effort to help all. Peace & Blessings,Rev. PaulYour Donation Helps to Support our Ministry! Thank you for your generosity so we may continue to bring these videos to you.MiraclesOne - www.miraclesone.org

Cheers Course Students, Over the past week we worked with Lessons 276 through 282 and read through, What is the Holy Spirit?. Besides having God as our Creator, the most important presence in our lives is the gift of the Holy Spirit given to us by God. Without Him we would never truly learn how to happily navigate through life and awaken from the dream of fear. The Holy Spirit is our personal friend and guide Who has many gifts He is waiting to share with us. To learn more about these gifts and who He is as our guide, check out this video.Many Blessings, Rev. Paul

Hello Course Students, In this week's episode of A Course in Miracles I touch on the Lessons we worked this past week, Lessons 269 through 275, plus I shared insights on the reading, What is the Christ? I personally found this to be pleasant and joyful reading because Jesus explains very clearly in just a few paragraphs exactly what our reality is with God, the Holy Spirit and one another. The supporting Lessons are also exciting because they're teaching us how to awaken the dormant psychic abilities we all have, so that we can learn how to see and hear the Christ within us. How amazing is that?!Many Blessings, Rev. Paul

Cheers Mighty Companions!Over the past week we worked with Lessons 255 through 261 in the Workbook for Students, and reviewed the reading, What Is the Body? In this reading, Jesus explains that we, as the Son of God, made an image of a body for ourselves that is used to fence us off from the awareness of heaven. It is also a home of fear that has been distorted in our minds to be a place of safety. In this episode of Insights on A Course in Miracles, I share an insight I received from the Holy Spirit about our awakening process. As students of A Course in Miracles, our curiosity has us peeking over the fence line to see what is on the other side. Of course, it's the Holy Spirit who is gently calling us to come home. One day, we will happily jump over the fence and run joyfully across the lawns to heaven back home. What a wonderful thought!Many Blessings,Rev. Paul

In this episode of Insights on A Course in Miracles, we take a look at the illusion of the world and the belief in the illusion of "sin". These topics were inspired from the lessons we worked on over the past two weeks (Lessons 241 through 254) and their respective readings, What Is the World? and What is Sin? Once again, Jesus reminds us that the world and everything we experience within it is an illusion. I found it helpful to relate it to a novel that an author might write. In many novels, whole new worlds, lands, beings and sets of mythical laws are created from the imagination of an author. The readers then lose themselves in the stories for their own entertainment. Jesus explains that we did something similar as the Son or Daughter of God. We drafted an illusion of a physical world that blocks out the awareness of God, then allowed ourselves to become lost within the journey almost indefinitely. Then, to add more drama to the story, our ego minds drafted painful beliefs about ourselves and others such as evilness, sinfulness, and guilt. What a mess! Thank God, Jesus has given us a solution to waking up from the story and closing the book once and for all. Keep working those Lessons! Many Blessings,Rev.

Cheers Course Students, This past week we worked on Lessons 234 through 240 in the Workbook for Students. One of the things that many students struggle with when going through the Lessons for the first time is the struggle to give up the thinking mind. Prior to working with A Course in Miracles, the ego mind became used to trying to figure things out with ourselves and our lives through analysis and contemplation. A key thing to realize is that this is only a delaying maneuver and will only waste time. Try to recognize when you are doing this and then stop and give yourself permission to set it aside. The Lessons we are working with now are teaching us how to go within and simply commune with God. Remember to give up your thoughts and to practice having no thoughts during your meditations, and then just wait for the Holy Spirit to bring forth waves of peace within you. These are gifts from God that will fill you with joy in the manner of minutes instead of hours or days of wasted contemplation. Love,Rev. Paul---Your Donation Helps to Support our Ministry! Thank you for your generosity so we may continue to bring these videos to you.MiraclesOne - www.miraclesone.org

Greetings Course Students, In this episode of Insights on A Course in Miracles is a reminder that we are learning how to let the Light of God do the forgiving work for us. In my experience, this is most easily accomplished through our practice of meditation. When we go within to consult with the Holy Spirit, he will remind us to forget about "trying" to forgive but instead to practice reaching the Light and letting It "do" the forgiving for us. This is a big difference when compared to the way that we were taught about the practice of forgiveness by many religious traditions. The practice is not easy at first because we are so used to doing things for ourselves. So we practice during our meditations in "letting go" and "trusting God" to do it for us. That is the focus of the Lessons we practice now. Many Blessings,Rev. Paul ---Your Donation Helps to Support our Ministry!

Over the past two weeks we worked through Lessons 199 through 212 in the Workbook for Students. In this episode of Insights on A Course in Miracles I focus on the review lesson 212 which takes us back to a review of Lesson 192: I have a function God would have me fill. In this lesson, Jesus reminds us of the importance of forgiveness. I also share an experience I had with the Holy Spirit this morning where He helped me to heal an Inner Child that had been stuck in pain for many years. I am grateful for the unexpected lesson and healing experience. Thank you, Holy Spirit. Love,Rev. Paul---Your Donation Helps to Support our Ministry! Thank you for your generosity so we may continue to bring these videos to you.MiraclesOne - www.miraclesone.org

This past week we worked on Lessons 192 through 198 in the Workbook for Students. However, there was one Lesson that stood out and it was 196: It can be but myself I crucify. Within this lesson Jesus addresses a huge problem we all struggle with and that is the habit of having critical thoughts about other people. He explains that this habit keeps us trapped within the belief in separation and ultimately delays our awakening from the dream. Within this episode of Insights on A Course in Miracles, I take a deeper look at this particular form of the problem and offer suggestions on how to break ourselves free of it. Many Blessings,Rev. Paul---Your Donation Helps to Support our Ministry! Thank you for your generosity so we may continue to bring these videos to you.MiraclesOne - www.miraclesone.org

Hello Course Students, One of the biggest problems we all struggle with throughout our lives are feelings of guilt and shame. They are a part of the nightmare we seem to be experiencing during our belief in our abandonment and separation from God. Over the past week we worked with Lessons 185 through 191 in the Workbook for Students. Lesson 190: I choose the joy of God instead of pain, really helps us to look at the problem of guilt and recognize how we've been in the habit of choosing pain in this form. Fortunately, as in all the Lessons, Jesus also provides us with the solution to giving up the weapon of guilt. As we learn how to do this with the help of the Holy Spirit, we eventually awaken from the nightmare. Yay! Many Blessings,Rev. Paul---Your Donation Helps to Support our Ministry!

Cheers Mighty Companions,This is a must-see episode of Insights on A Course in Miracles after this week's practice of Lessons 178 through 184. I felt deeply drawn to Lesson 183, I will be still an instant and go home, then guided to talk about it for unknown reasons until I did the actual video recording. What came out brought tears to my eyes and joy to my heart because I felt the Love of God speaking through me in the moment. Our useless journeys down many paths of misery are almost over, for the suitcase of Love has been packed within us and is ready to show us the way home!Much Love, Rev. PaulYour Donation Helps to Support our Ministry! Thank you for your generosity so we may continue to bring these videos to you.MiraclesOne - www.miraclesone.org

Greetings Course Students, Uniting with God every day is the skill we have been learning and honing with our practice of the Lessons this past week. In their own special way, Lessons 171 through 177 have had us specifically working toward the space of having our own personal experience of meeting the Divine. This is a skill that Jesus learned while he walked the Earth ages ago and now, he is teaching us the same skill - how exciting is that! Lesson 174 has us review Lesson 157: Into His Presence would I enter now, which focuses entirely on sharing the same message. We do not need to wait months or years to meet God personally, we can do it NOW just by merely practicing Lessons such as this one, once or twice a day in quiet anticipation for our Creator to reveal Himself to us.

Happy Father's Day to all the wonderful Dad's out there!This week we worked with Lessons 164 through 170 and learned about our wonderful Father in heaven. Lesson 169 - By grace I live. By grace I am released; shares insights about His love for us that just made my heart feel happy inside. Jesus explains that God's grace is a love for us that goes beyond all imagining. We have a Creator that loves us unconditionally - no matter what we seem to do within the dream; the mistakes and sins we think we make. And in that loving grace, He gave each an everyone of us the Holy Spirit to help us forgive the world and prepare our minds to accept our oneness with Him at last.

Greetings Course Students: Over the past week we worked on Lessons 157 through 163. In this video, I focus on Lesson 163 because it addresses the illusion of death in detail. During our study group session, we had a fantastic sharing and discussion around the fear of death that we all grew up with and how A Course in Miracles has helped us to heal the problem. In my own work with the Holy Spirit, I experienced a wonderful healing around the terror I once felt at the prospect of facing my own death. God Himself actually visited with me many years ago to heal me of the fear. To hear more about it, checkout this video. Many Blessings,Rev. Paul--Your Donation Helps to Support our Ministry!

Hello Mighty Companions, In this week's episode of Insights on A Course in Miracles I share an experience I had with the Holy Spirt that reminded me how simple it was to practice stepping back and letting Him lead the way. Remember, as Course students we are literally learning how to become miracle workers. Our ego thoughts would have us believe that becoming a miracle worker is difficult and takes a lot of time and hard work - but that is simply not true! In fact, performing miracles for yourself is much easier than you think and can be practiced in a few minutes every day. To learn more, plus hear about a personal miracle story experience I had this week while working with Lesson 155, I will step back and let Him lead the way, please watch this video.

Hello Course Students, In this week's episode of Insights on A Course in Miracles, I highlight one very important Lesson out of the review Lessons (143-149) we worked with this past week. In Lesson 143, Jesus asks us to review Lesson 125 - In quiet I receive God's Word today. Considering the recent tragic shootings at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, this review couldn't have come at a better time. At a time when our hearts feel broken and we are unsure of what we can do to facilitate positive change in the world, we learn that it is possible to hear God speak to us. Reasons like these emphasize the importance of learning how to listen now more than ever! As we continue to practice and learn how to hear Him, the potential positive impact to our lives and the lives of those around us is unlimited. God will speak to us - literally - if we but take the time to go within and listen. To learn more about this miracle and how to perform it for yourself, please take a few minutes to watch this video.

Hello Course Students, Over the past week we worked on Lessons 136 though 142 and received a lot of great information about what is going on with us in the illusion, and how to work on making corrections with the help of the Holy Spirit. Jesus shares that it is really us who makes ourselves sick and not the outside world. He also explains that we can work with the Holy Spirit to make the decision stop making ourselves sick. Lastly, he cautions us about the misperception that a healed body is a cured spiritual mind. This episode of Insights on A Course in Miracles dives into these concepts and more.

Greetings Mighty Companions, This is the time of year when many families are making plans to go on their summer vacations. Vacations can be so much fun for a lot of reasons - taking a break from the stress of everyday work, finding fresh air and new surroundings, relaxing and having no worries. Well, in Lessons 129 through 135 that we worked on over the past week, you can think of them as helping you to find your own personal vacation get-away that you can practicing awakening too every day. Once you begin to discover and experience the miracle gifts waiting within, you will be energized to learn more about this wonderful vacation spot that's available to you now!Many Blessings,Rev.

Greetings Mighty Companions, I'm excited to share that Jesus guided me to share a message and dialoging practice in this episode of Insights on A Course in Miracles. His message is that He is accessible to each and every one of us now! He gave me simple steps on how to reach out to him during our practice meditations to begin a simple dialogue. Of course, this is a perfect time for Him to bring this up, because we have been working with Lessons in the Workbook (122 through 128) which are stepping up our practice of listening for the Voice of God. To learn more about how you can start your own dialogues with Jesus, and hearing the Voice of God, check out this video. Many Blessings,Rev PaulYour Donation Helps to Support our Ministry!

Greetings Everyone, All of this week's Lessons had us reviewing ideas that focused on leading us down the path to joy. They included forgiveness, remembering the truth, we were originally created happy, and our Teacher is here to help us with the whole journey. If you've been experiencing a miserable life, despair, a sense of hopelessness, and been feeling alone with your problems, then make sure you study and practice Lesson 121 frequently and well. It is a classic and speaks well to the journey of despair many go through and, more importantly, the way out. If you're one of these people, dedicate yourself to working with your Internal Teacher, the Holy Spirit, as much as possible. The more you do, the quicker you will find a happier life for yourself. It's a promise from Jesus himself. Many Blessings,Rev. Paul---Your Donation Helps to Support our Ministry!

Hello Course Students, Many of you are far enough along in your practice of the Lessons that you are gaining the understanding on how dialoging with the Holy Spirit works. This is also a crucial step toward understanding your part in God's plan for salvation. You are discovering that it's easy to ask Holy Spirit questions and then receive answers in just a few minutes. This is great news because you are crossing the threshold from the Lessons being a daily chore to the pleasant experience of receiving your own answers from your Inner Friend. Good for you! In this episode of Insights on A Course in Miracles, I touch on Lessons 108 through 114 with an emphasis on the ease of five-minute dialogues with Holy Spirit and the problem of frequently forgetting to practice our lessons throughout the day.

Hello Mighty Companions, In Lessons 100 through 107, Jesus shares with us wonderful new ideas, some even surprising, to ponder. Sin and pain are but illusions and are not necessary. We have an unnecessary fear of God that prevents us from experiencing His joy. And we can choose to bypass these illusions anytime we like to discover the truth beneath. Through the practice of frequent meditation, as these lessons are teaching us, we can find our hidden joy, happiness, peace, security, and love of our True Selves. Once the truth about ourselves is discovered, we can bring it back into our daily walk of joy within the world. Many Blessings,Rev. Paul---Your Donation Helps to Support our Ministry!

Cheers Course Students, As we worked through Lessons 94 through 100 this past week we saw that Jesus had us practice going deep to literally feel the Christ within, hear the Holy Spirit Speak to us, and experience the happiness God gave us in our creation. He also addresses the problem of losing focus during mediations and the periodic practicing of the lessons. The big message being, don't throw in the towel. When you catch yourself forgetting to practice, forgive yourself then re-engage immediately. Don't use excuses to delay your mind healing. Speaking of mind healing, I experienced an unexpected mind healing during my practice of Lesson 100 a few mornings ago. The Holy Spirt began communicating with me about why I was looking forward to meeting my long-time Star Trek hero, Captain Kirk (William Shatner), in a few hours at a convention gathering. The healing was both unexpected and wonderful to receive which I share about in this video. It was a great reminder of one of the many gifts the Holy Spirit can grace us with as we learn how to let Him help us to awaken from the dream.Many Blessings,Rev.

Hello Course Students, I found Lessons 87 through 93 to be an wonderful group of lessons because of the variety of definitions that were touched upon. They included: true perception, seeing the light, seeing the miracle, grievances making darkness, vision, strength of light and joy of light. Most of these terms refer to learning how to use the tool of light to save ourselves from misery. In this episode of Insights on A Course in Miracles, I share my insights on these terms and how you can use the tool of your inner light to collapse time and heal yourself from sadness within a few minutes. We truly are learning how to become miracle workers - how exciting!Wishing you the Miracle of Joy,Rev. Paul---Your Donation Helps to Support our Ministry!

Hello Course Students,The unfortunate events unfolding in Ukraine has been weighing heavily on the minds of millions around the planet, myself included. Rev. Deb suggested I talk about the situation and how the lessons could be applied. Sensing that this could be an emotionally triggering topic for many, I decided to consult with Jesus about what I could say. As usual, He shared words that were comforting and made sense. I felt better after listening to him for awhile. I could feel his compassion coming through. In today's episode of Insights on A Course in Miracles, I touch briefly on the lessons we practiced over the last week, Lessons 80-86, and mostly share a message on how we can be truly helpful to those in need around the world.Take care,Rev.

Hello Everyone, This past week we worked with Lessons 73 through 79 within the Workbook for Students. I hope as we all work through these lessons together, that you are finding it a little easier and perhaps, even a little fun to practice them. Sometimes, I even feel a little excited inside as I read the lessons because I can see the journey Jesus is taking us on is a new one, and I sense that our eventual arrival at the destination is going to be an amazing wake-up to joy! In this week's episode of Insights on A Course in Miracles, I share messages I received from Jesus about remembering and dialoging with the Holy Spirit, plus a powerful technique you can use to custom design your own special meeting place where you can dialogue with Jesus and the Holy Spirit yourself.
