Send us a textThe creative power of the mind stands at the center of our human experience – a power so profound that it shapes our entire perception of reality. In this eye-opening exploration of A Course in Miracles teachings, we unravel the fundamental distinction between creation and miscreation, revealing how every thought carries energetic force.What if your thoughts aren't just passive mental activity but active creative expressions? Both creation (love) and miscreation (fear) draw from the same divine wellspring of creative energy, but lead to radically different experiences. When we direct our mind's power toward love, we naturally express patience, kindness, and peace. When misdirected toward fear, we become defensive, judgmental, and conflicted.The breakthrough insight here isn't about controlling or suppressing thoughts, but recognizing their source and purpose. Those moments of irritation, anxiety, or judgment aren't failings – they're opportunities to witness your creative power in action and redirect it. Instead of feeling guilty about "negative" thoughts, we learn to see them as misdirected energy waiting to be returned to love through the Holy Spirit.We explore why modern psychological approaches often fall short by attempting to reinterpret or manage mental conflict rather than heal it at its source. True healing doesn't come from analyzing why we feel fear or explaining it away through past experiences. It comes through the present-moment choice to redistribute energy from miscreation back to creation.This teaching liberates us from both the tyranny of thought-policing and the trap of believing we're powerless over our mental states. The mind's creative power is never diminished – it's only ever misdirected. When we recognize this, we can practice the art of miracle-making: bringing every miscreative thought to the Holy Spirit for transformation.Ready to reclaim your creative power and shift the balance toward love?

In this Sunday Gathering message that draws upon the work of James Baldwin and the teachings of A Course in Miracles, Emily Perry explores how hate functions like a spiritual cancer—growing silently within us until it erupts into division, violence, and despair. If you've ever wondered how to confront the hostility in our world—and in yourself—without losing sight of love, this message will encourage you to look honestly at your own heart and discover the freedom that comes with letting hate go. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles.

Your savior form specialness. God is a part of you and you are a part of home. Same with your brother.

Send us a textHope Johnson guides us through a profound exploration of ACIM Lesson 234 – "Father, today I am your son again" – inviting us to remember our true identity beyond the illusions of this world. This seemingly simple declaration opens a gateway to understanding our unbroken connection with the Divine.The conversation unfolds around a radical perspective: nothing we perceive in this world can disturb our peace unless we allow it to. When feelings of regret or unworthiness arise, Hope suggests an immediate pivot toward gratitude rather than dwelling in sorrow. This shift isn't spiritual bypassing but rather a recognition that beneath every experience lies an opportunity to remember who we truly are – perfect extensions of God's love.One of the most liberating insights shared is about releasing our need for others' approval. Many of us unconsciously structure our relationships around validation-seeking, creating cycles of dependency and disappointment. Hope offers a refreshing alternative: "Don't try to get other people to see you differently. You want to see them differently." When we stop making others responsible for our sense of worthiness, our relationships transform from possession to freedom.The discussion takes a fascinating turn when participants share mystical experiences of light and oneness, glimpses beyond the veil of separation. These experiences point to what the Course describes as "the holy peace we never left" – the reality that exists beneath our dream of exile. As one participant realizes, even her concern for leaving loved ones behind dissolves in the recognition that "all the children of God, all the sons of God, we will be there, connected in that light of happiness."This episode doesn't shy away from addressing how we can extend forgiveness to seemingly "unforgivable" acts in the world. Hope challenges us to recognize that maintaining any exceptions to forgiveness keeps us bound to the very separation we seek to transcend. The pathway out of suffering isn't through fixing the world but through changing how we see it – recognizing everything as either love or a call for love.Join us for this transformative conversation that illuminates the journey from the dream world of separation to the real world of unity consciousness, and ultimately to eternity beyond all form. Your peace is waiting to be reclaimed, right now.Support the show

Send us a textWhat happens when we surrender everything—our thoughts, our actions, even our annoyances—to divine guidance? In this profound exploration of A Course in Miracles Lesson 233, we discover how giving our life to God transforms our perception of reality itself.The session begins with a radical proposition: God's will for us is perfect happiness, while the ego's purpose is to keep us trapped in fear. Every moment presents us with this choice. Do we listen to the voice that leads to peace, or the one that perpetuates suffering? This isn't about judging our actions or following rigid spiritual rules—it's about recognizing the purpose behind everything we do.One of the most liberating insights shared is that our bodies don't actually feel anything. All sensation, whether pleasant or painful, stems from our thoughts about separation. When we believe something external can harm us, we experience that belief as physical discomfort. A powerful testimony about painless childbirth demonstrates how fundamentally different our experience becomes when we release fear.The discussion challenges conventional wisdom about spiritual practice. Rather than spending years trying to reprogram our subconscious, A Course in Miracles offers a direct path to truth—bypassing mental noise and connecting with what it calls "miracle-mindedness." This foundation of our being remains untouched by illusory experiences and remembers our oneness with God.Perhaps most touching is the revelation about our relationships. Those who trigger us aren't enemies but teachers, showing us exactly where we still believe in separation. As we heal these perceptions, we begin to see beyond bodies to the divine light in everyone. We cannot go home alone—the journey back to God includes all our brothers.Ready to experience the freedom of complete surrender? Join us in this practice of giving everything to God, moment by moment, and discover the joy that has been waiting for you all along.Support the show

Send us a textWhat if every problem you face—relationship struggles, health concerns, financial worries—stems from a single choice in your mind? In this illuminating deep dive into A Course in Miracles, Hope Johnson unravels the profound concept of "the basic conflict" between creation and miscreation, love and fear.When psychologists like Freud and Rank developed theories about human suffering, they missed something crucial. They located the cause of our pain in physical events like birth trauma or childhood experiences, developing therapies that attempted to abolish fear directly. But as Jesus reveals through the Course, these approaches never address the real source of suffering."When you miscreate, you are in pain." This simple statement revolutionizes our understanding of suffering. Pain isn't random or inflicted from outside—it's a direct signal that our mind is choosing separation over love in this moment. Rather than an enemy to be eliminated, fear serves as a spiritual warning light showing us exactly where healing is needed.The world can never satisfy us, and that realization might initially bring grief. I've recently experienced this myself—releasing the hope that special relationships or circumstances could fulfill me. There's a bittersweet freedom in recognizing that nothing external can give us what only love provides. When we stop seeking substitutes in the world for what only comes through alignment with truth, we discover a joy that doesn't depend on changing circumstances.In truth, "cause is a term properly belonging to God, and effect is His Sonship." Everything else is temporary, illusory. By recognizing that our fear and pain signal miscreation rather than resulting from external events, we reclaim our creative power. This understanding collapses time by addressing the root cause rather than endlessly managing symptoms.Ready to transform your approach to healing? Join our community and discover how to use every moment of discomfort as an opportunity to choose again, to align with love instead of fear. Together, we're learning that true freedom comes not from changing the world, but from changing our minds about the world.Support the show

Erin Walter has so much to share about grief and those moving through it. In this intimate conversation, Erin opens up about her own experiences and how they have helped her serve others in her role as a grief counselor and social worker. One of the most difficult experiences we can have is losing someone in the physical. We loved hearing about Erin's experiences with the divine, forgiveness, and how we can all get "lessoned-out". Let's talk about grief and how it applies to many other aspects of our lives as well.   New Listener? Episode 1 explains how to study ACIM and make the most of your experience with One Simple Truth.

In this episode of Exploring A Course in Miracles, Robert and Emily Perry dive into one of the most important questions of the spiritual journey: Who is God, really? How we see God shapes everything. If we see Him as hostile, we live in fear.  If we see Him as indifferent, we feel alone.  But if we know Him as gracious and loving, we can live with peace, trust, and the deep assurance that we are never alone.  Drawing on insights from A Course in Miracles and the work of theologian Marcus Borg, Emily and Robert explore how our image of God profoundly impacts the way we experience life. Along the way, they share why the Course's vision of God as a deeply personal and unconditionally loving Creator may be one of its greatest contributions. If you've ever wrestled with your image of God—or wondered what A Course in Miracles really teaches about Him—this conversation is for you. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles.

Another message explaining the Holy Relationship vs Sin.  This one will be more concise and simplified with talking about how the Ego views sin vs how reason would see someone else as Holy.

The holy relationship extends and sees no difference.  Sin sees the error in someone else and does not understand.  Sin sees what it can take from another. The Holy relationship extends oneness.

Send us a textWhat if everything we've learned about psychology and fear has been missing the essential truth? In this transformative ACIM Deep Dive, we venture into Chapter 2, Section 11, where Jesus directly addresses Freudian psychology—acknowledging its insights while revealing where it fundamentally missed the mark.The conversation opens a revolutionary perspective on fear and healing. While Freud correctly identified mechanisms that protect consciousness from fear, he mistakenly believed these psychological compartments were necessary. Jesus reveals a more liberating truth: "It is essential not to control the fearful, but to eliminate it." This single insight transforms our approach to anxiety, trauma, and psychological healing.We explore Otto Rank's concept of "birth trauma" and discover that physical birth itself is not traumatic—the real trauma is the mind's belief in separation from God, an event that never actually occurred. This revelation shifts everything, showing that fear originates not from life events but from a mistaken belief that can be completely undone.The session takes a fascinating turn when examining Rank's "will therapy," which Jesus calls "potentially very powerful" but limited because it didn't extend to "its proper union with God's will." This leads to a profound exploration of the "deprivation fallacy"—the belief that another's success diminishes our own—which underlies all competition and defense.Throughout our exploration, practical examples bring these concepts to life: from childbirth experiences transformed by mind-training to everyday fears seen through new eyes. Listeners will gain fresh insight into how we project our unconscious fears onto the world and how, with gentle patience, the Holy Spirit helps us bring these shadows to light for healing.Ready to see beyond traditional psychology to miracle mindedness? This episode offers a roadmap for tracing all fear back to its source, where it can be completely undone rather than merely managed. Join us for this journey beyond the ego's protective mechanisms into the freedom of a mind unified in love.Support the show

Most of us are doing all we can for happiness, joy, peace...but have e decided against happiness.

Our hate hides or covers our love. For some they are afraid of love so they use hate to cover it. For others we may not be aware of our hate.

In this Sunday Gathering message, Emily Perry invites you to explore one of the most important questions on the spiritual journey: Who is your path calling you to become? Through real-life examples, practical guidance, and the wisdom from the Course, you'll see how trust, honesty, gentleness, joy, and open-mindedness are not just ideals—they are the daily practice of awakening. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles.

Send us a textJesus illuminates the true nature of the unconscious mind while acknowledging and correcting common psychoanalytic theories. The deepest level of the unconscious is not shared in content but in function - as the mind's ability to perform miracles.• Psychoanalytic theorists like Freud and Jung glimpsed the dynamics of the unconscious but missed its full power to choose miracle or miscreation• Jung's concept of archetypes has value when recognized as symbols to be forgiven, not parts of identity to be integrated• The collective unconscious is not filled with shared content but is a shared miracle-working ability• Miracle-mindedness is a state of mind, not specific actions, and all miracles are directed by Jesus• True healing comes from recognizing illusions as false, not from analyzing unconscious content• The pre-conscious level is where we can easily bring thoughts into awareness and choose forgiveness• Our mind is all-powerful and energy comes from awakening, not sleepingI invite you to recognize patterns in your life not to integrate them but to be released from them. Your only function is forgiveness, and every miracle shifts perception from fear to love.Support the show

Semi often the course writes something such as "the course requires very little of you"...what do you think? And here is why.

For a Holy Relationship we must see others as the same. So seeing our brothers as sinless as they will see us.

Send us a text✨A Course In Miracles Deep Dive - Chapter 2, Section X, Paragraph 12 to Section XI, Paragraph 2, Sentence 1"Fear and The Unwatched Mind" July 30, 2025Beneath the surface of our everyday consciousness lies an unwatched mind – a realm of thoughts and beliefs that actively shapes every aspect of our experience without our awareness. In this profound exploration of A Course in Miracles Chapter 2, we discover how these unwatched thoughts become the source of all our fear.Jesus reveals a startling truth: we've been afraid of God, ourselves, Jesus, and practically everyone we know not because they're actually threatening, but because we've projected our own guilt outward. This projection is the ego's primary defense strategy – making us fear everything that could actually help us. The vulnerable, Jesus teaches, "are essentially miscreators because they misperceive creation." Our perception of weakness or threat in ourselves and others isn't reflecting reality; it's creating a distorted image based on fear.What makes this teaching revolutionary is how it reframes our understanding of the unconscious mind. Unlike Freud who viewed the unconscious as an inaccessible reservoir of hidden drives, Jesus shows us that our unconscious is simply what we've chosen not to watch. It remains active and powerful, projecting an entire world of experience, yet we persist in believing that "when we do not consciously watch our mind, it is unmindful."Most remarkable is Jesus' revelation that beneath all our ego's distortions lies the miracle level – a stratum of mind that remains untouched by error, always perfectly aligned with truth. The unwatched mind creates noise and static above this miracle level, making us afraid to sink deeper into our own awareness.By gently watching our thoughts without judgment and bringing them to the Holy Spirit for correction, we can access this miracle level. We need not fear what we discover, for our willingness to look with love dissolves the power of these hidden thoughts. As Jesus reassures us, once we've begun this journey, "the truth will not escape you entirely" – the pull of awakening becomes stronger than our resistance.What perceptions are you ready to question today? What fears might actually be invitations to look more deeply at your unwatched thoughts? Join us in this exploration of mind at its most fundamental level – where the choice to watch with holy sight transforms everything we see.Support the show

In this episode, Robert and Emily Perry dive into the content and the backstory of “The Journey Into Fear”—a newly restored Text section in the Complete and Annotated Edition of A Course in Miracles. The message of this section is as radical as it is liberating – to uncover the love in us, we must first face the hate in us – but it's also uncomfortable. So uncomfortable, in fact, it was removed from the original publication of the Course. Why would A Course in Miracles ask us to look at something so uncomfortable? And what happens when we do? We hope you'll join Robert and Emily for this deep, honest, and ultimately hopeful conversation. You will learn: Why we believe this material was removed – and why it was restored.  The cost of keeping your hate buried.  How facing our hate frees the love within us. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles.

I was looking for a teaching to share tonight and here is what came across...the Holy Spirits translation of certain scriptures.

Contact Welcomed Here“Suffering reveals the soul, not to others, but to oneself.”Dostoevsky“And still, in all my suffering, I wondered if there was even a self to reveal.”Kafka“I held on because I believed pain meant it was real”Dostoyevsky“I let go because nothing real should hurt that long”KafkaWe Know We Know. We Are Aware We Are Aware. We Are as We Are. Reality is unlimited and never changes. The idea that how and what we think creates reality suggests otherwise. Acting on backward thoughts leads to behaviors that are out of order reflecting a reversal of our natural fortune. Anxious, nervous and systemic disorders reflect this impossible attempt to reverse the Law and order of our universe's Essence. Dis-ease is the lack of ease created and maintained by such twisted mental acrobatics. Stress and Anxiety inhibit healing. Mentality is a bodily function. Mental disease is a physcial ailment leading to others as long as it is improperly diagnosed - any treatment will perpetuate its contagion. Principles affirm our indivisible nature. Sharing principles affirms and confirms our indivisibility as our nature. Inspiration is natural while desperation, depression, degradation an acting oblivious to what is obvious is a choice. Absolute Intelligence, Peace and Silence is Nature's nature since It does not change. Nature is naturally our nature. Ignoring what is happening, acting as though it shouldn't be or isn't happening, produces the unintelligible jibbersh of ignorance - not reality.

This is our Dog and when it storms he gets anxious. But this is like what we do with everything in the world compared to what Truth is.

In this Sunday Gathering sermon, Emily Perry draws inspiration from Frederick Douglass' powerful 1852 speech “What, to the Slave, is the Fourth of July?” to examine the gap between the high ideals of faith and the painful realities we see around us. Through stories of figures like Maximilian Kolbe, Martin Luther King Jr., and her own personal experiences, Emily explores how A Course in Miracles offers a new vision of faith—one that is not blind or hollow, but grounded in love, equality, and trust in each other's holiness. You'll learn: Why the Course teaches that God has perfect faith in you How we misplace our faith—and how to redirect it toward healing What it means to place faith in others and call forth their true nature How faith can become a living force for compassion, courage, and transformation If you've ever struggled with the concept of faith or wondered what it truly means on the spiritual path, this message is a call to embody the world we long to see. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles.

Continuing the conversation of the Goal of Truth. Here is the Holy Instants Role in Truth!  Can we not interfer with it?

Contact Welcomed HereMOD episodes have no shelf-life or expiration date.  Our focus is principled so each episode reflects the immediate peace and stability of our Ever-Present Knowing Awareness that clarifies conflicted impressions manifest by the instability and hyper-reactivity of obsessive thoughts purely induced, “imagined reality”.While the Absolute nature of Life is an unadulterated gift - we earn our human experience. Good or bad, like it or not, it is how and what we think of Life, Reality, and Truth that complicate all the consequential forms of conflicted dysfunctional incapacities incorrectly blamed on life and human nature. It is not Life that is impossible, hard, or a struggle but imagining that our thoughts about it are omnipotent and as a result unchangeable. This addictive mental trend has the world of things and people seem in chronic need of change while we choose to inflict others with our thoughts to pretend we are not capable of causing such conflicts. This induced form of insanity once seen clearly is laughable. The only thoughts induced insanity seemingly overlook are the mistaken beliefs of their perpetrator. Acting like we're in a coma to maintain unnatural conditions does not affect our essence but causes over-dramatic mental and inter-reactive consequences. We choose how and what we think - and this news is good or bad dependent on how accurately, or honestly, our choices are conceded.  We Know We Know. We Are Aware We Are Aware. We Are as We Are. Reality is unlimited and never changes. The idea that how and what we think creates reality suggests otherwise. Acting on backward thoughts leads to behaviors that are out of order reflecting a reversal of our natural fortune. Anxious, nervous and systemic disorders reflect this impossible attempt to reverse the Law and order of the universe. Dis-ease is the lack of ease created and maintained by such twisted mental acrobatics. Stress and Anxiety inhibit healing and so contribute to any ailments. Mentality is a bodily function. Mental disease is a physcial ailment leading to others as long as it is improperly diagnosed - any treatment will perpetuate its contagion. Principles affirm our indivisible nature. Sharing principles affirms and confirms our indivisibility as our nature. Inspiration is natural while desperation, depression, degradation and acting oblivious to what is obvious is a choice. Absolute Intelligence, Peace and Silence is Nature's nature since It does not change. The nature of nature is naturally our nature. Ignoring what is happening, acting as though it shouldn't be or isn't happening, produces the unintelligible jibbersh of ignorance - not reality.

This episode I am in more detail explaining the goal of truth.

Send us a textIn today's talk, we explored how fear arises and how it is corrected according to A Course in Miracles.✨ Key points:Fear signals inner misalignment.It arises when what you want conflicts with what you do, revealing hidden will conflicts.God's Will and your true will are never separate.Strain and fear come only from believing they are. When you remember your will is one with God's, action becomes effortless.Fear comes from lack of love.The only remedy is perfect love, which is the Atonement – the recognition that separation never occurred.You cannot truly will without love.Willing without love is an ego illusion. Your real will is always aligned with love and creation.Fear of your own thoughts keeps you from recognizing your mind's true power.Only loving thoughts are real; fearful or angry thoughts have no true creative effect, though they appear to produce suffering within the dream.Acting out anger reinforces separation and suffering.Correction is not suppression, but seeing anger as a call for love, choosing a new perception.✨ Integration reflection:“Where am I still believing my will conflicts with God's Will, and what would shift if I remembered they are the same?”This section invites us to see fear not as something to fight, but as a signal to return to love and realign with truth.See all of my Offerings HereSupport the show

The "holy ego" is a trap, where it seems spiritual and is about keeping the peace, but isn't. It's ridden with guilt, one upping, and tolerating others. This perpetuates fear and judgement. Whereas the true Self, our spirit self, does not take the bait and knows none of the drama means anything at the end of the day, and how that is true Forgiveness for the sake of peace. Tune into this week's episode to learn how loving ourselves is the ultimate way to let go of others grievances. The players showing up are just a reflection of our minds. Learning to forgive has value at all levels, but it will be a happy day when we can really Forgive from a place that knows this is all a projection, that we are all innocent, and none of this suffering has any part in reality.   Listen and watch our podcast, now streaming on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@chrissyatley1 To learn more about readings and coaching, with Chris and Amy, visit: https://chrisatley.com Chris Atley Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisatley/ Amy Yates Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/connectivesoul

Setting the goal of truth requires faith but doing so leads to peace and sanity.  

In our conversation we delve into the benevolence of God in Dan's life and discover his insight into the Bible and how he relates to Jesus. I share thoughts from A Course In Miracles, we speak about how Jeshua is for everyone and doesn't exclude anyone in his love.We speak of the correction of our mistakes and returning to the sane relationship with God.We speak of how the child of God had the tiny mad idea that one could be better than its source.May blessings abound!!!!

Yesterday I had an open house for my Real Estate Business up north and that allowed me to spend extended time emersing myself in the course through podcasts.

We can call God's name for anything and for all situations.

In this sermon, Emily Perry explores A Course in Miracles' radical redefinition of justice—not as punishment, but as love itself. In a world where justice is seen as people getting what they deserve for what they do, the Course teaches that real justice is about getting what you deserve for who you truly are as God's beloved child. We'll look at how the world's idea of justice often masks vengeance, how the Course reframes justice as restoration rather than retribution, and how we can embody this higher justice in our daily lives. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles.

The Holy Spirit can solve any problem you give it. This is the power of Holiness.  

Continuing the mini series on the power of Holiness and sharing that Holiness is strength and attack is weakness.

In this special Q&A episode of Exploring A Course in Miracles, Robert and Emily Perry dive into the central teaching of the Course—forgiveness—and answer your questions about how to truly live it. What does the Course say about forgiveness? How do we forgive when we're hurting, when others don't change, or when we need to protect ourselves? Together, we explore:  What Course-based forgiveness actually is (vs. conventional forgiveness), Why forgiveness is not spiritual bypassing Boundaries, abuse, and real-world relationships Forgiving without an apology—or even contact What to do with anger, grief, and fear Forgiving groups, the government, the world Forgiveness and codependency What it means to forgive the deceased, and much more We also talk about why Course-based forgiveness isn't just inner work—it's about seeing others as truly innocent and extending love in response. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles.
