Podcasts about A Course in Miracles

The Holy Spirit is a guide and is available to us to offer up the these we do not want. It helps us to move away from the themes and teaching of the ego towards love and peace.

In the midst of horrific pain Vern gets to know a perspective that serves him well.Nonduality is an experience and all words do when used to serve this message is draw you towards allowing yourself not to be special but to be present.The idea of forgiveness in A Course In Miracles is that nothing ever happened.Let that sinc in and understand the connection to seeing things differently.

These or teachings of the ego include that love is dangerous, that fear is real and the idea is to keep you anxious and depressed.  When we find that we are in these we can offer these to the Holy Spirit.

What does it mean to choose joy in a world that feels anything but joyful? In this Sunday Gathering message, Emily Perry explores the practice of claiming joy not as escapism, but as a spiritual act of defiance against fear, suffering, and ego-based narratives. Drawing from A Course in Miracles and the legacy of great nonviolent movements—from Fannie Lou Hamer to Viktor Frankl to Dietrich Bonhoeffer—Emily shares how joy becomes a healing force when rooted in love and our identity as God's beloved. You'll learn: Why the Course calls joy your function and a sign of spiritual maturity How resistance through joy echoes the teachings of Jesus and the Sermon on the Mount What “Black joy” reveals about reclaiming identity and sacred dignity How to cultivate joy even in the midst of pain, loss, or injustice Emily's sermon reminds us that joy is more than a feeling—it's a way of standing with God, even in the storm. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles.

Episode #206 of World Awakenings celebrates 50 years of A Course in Miracles with a board member of the Foundation for Inner Peace, Celina Granato. From a young age, Celina she wanted to understand the nature of reality. By her mid-twenties, she had explored various paths in search of genuine peace when she was introduced to A Course in Miracles, which became her primary spiritual practice, guiding her through life's challenges by focusing on a thought system of true forgiveness. Originally from the American Midwest and raised in a salt-of-the-earth community with a multicultural upbringing, Celina sees interpersonal relationships as some of the greatest opportunities for doing inner work. Now a student of the Course for over 20 years, she understands the Course as a self-study practice for the mind and being uncompromising to the principles of the Course leads to genuine spiritual growth. She is currently the Chief International and Communications Officer at the Foundation for Inner Peace.

Fear is a call for help and healing.  And Fear is also a recognization that love has beened denied. So using the Holy Spirits interpetation of fear and turning it in to only seeing loving thoughts can help you and your brothers!

“There is another way of looking at the world.” – A Course in Miracles Workbook, Lesson 33What if the shift you're craving isn't in your circumstances—but in your perspective?In this episode, we explore Lesson 33 from the A Course in Miracles Workbook for Students⁠, a gentle but radical invitation to loosen the grip on your current interpretation of reality. When we feel stuck, reactive, or overwhelmed, this lesson reminds us that we are never truly out of options—we can always choose to see differently.This shift in perception doesn't require force or certainty. Just a willingness. A pause. A quiet moment of remembering: There is another way of looking at this.Key Insights from Lesson 33✨ The doorway to peace is always open: You don't have to fix the world or your emotions before you find relief. Simply being willing to see differently is enough to invite in the miracle.✨ Suffering often comes from attachment to one perspective: When we believe our version of reality is the only one, we lock ourselves in. But loosening that grip—even a little—makes space for healing, grace, and new meaning.✨ The miracle is the shift in perception: True transformation doesn't require external change. The moment you reinterpret a situation through love instead of fear, you've already begun to heal.Reflection QuestionsWhere in my life do I feel stuck in “only one way” of seeing things?Can I identify one area where I'm willing to say, “There is another way of looking at this”?Is there someone I've been judging harshly, where I could soften and say, “Maybe there's more going on than I can see”?What opens up in me when I even consider the possibility of a new perspective?CONNECT WITH JESSICA FLINT⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ORACLE DECKS USED⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tea Leaf Fortune Cards⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Animal Spirit Deck⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Rose Oracle Deck

Special guest, Septembre Flannery, joins today's podcast to give us insight into what she has learned from being a healer of 30 years. She recounts some of her more challenging lessons, and one of her own miraculous experiences. Each lesson has deepened her understanding of how everything is connected (the body, mind & spirit), and she brings her wisdom into her healing space, affecting the lives of many. Give yourself “grace & space” as Temi calls it, and enjoy the moment.

Gratitude is due for both his loving thoughts and his appeals for help.  Doing this brings love and peace into our awareness.

In this episode of Exploring A Course in Miracles podcast, Robert & Emily Perry dive into one of the Course's most essential—and most misunderstood—figures: the Holy Spirit. You will learn: Who is the Holy Spirit? What is His relationship to God, Jesus, and us? Is He just a symbol… or a real Being with a divine mission? What is His role? How can we hear the Holy Spirit more clearly? We hope you'll join in for an illuminating conversation about the Holy Spirit and how A Course in Miracles says He can lead you back to God. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles.

God Wills Joy, Light and so much more.  We sometimes seem to move about with darkness surrounding us.  Deny the darkness and let the light make the way clear.

“I have invented the world I see.” – A Course in Miracles Workbook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, Lesson 32What if letting go isn't about loss or defeat—but about loosening your grip on a way of seeing that no longer serves you, so something new can take shape?In this episode, we explore Lesson 32 from the A Course in Miracles Workbook for Students, which invites us to take creative ownership of how we see the world. Rather than being passive observers of our lives, this lesson reminds us that we are powerful interpreters—and that interpretation shapes experience.Key Insights from Lesson 32✨ The world you see is a mirror, not a prison: The outer world reflects the inner world—your beliefs, stories, and assumptions. When you shift the lens, you shift the experience. Healing begins in perception.✨ You hold the paintbrush: Each thought is a stroke on the canvas of your reality. When you bring awareness to what you're creating, you open the door to transformation—thought by thought, choice by choice.✨ Your freedom lies in authorship: You don't have to keep living out someone else's script—or even your ego's. You can pause. Reframe. Rewrite. The story is yours to tell.Reflection QuestionsWhat narrative do I keep reinforcing about myself, others, or life—and am I ready to write a new one?Is there a situation I've been interpreting through fear or insecurity? What might it look like to reinterpret it through love?What would it feel like to create a life guided by love rather than obligation or fear of disappointing others?Where in my life have I been reacting to a situation without realizing I invented the way I'm seeing it? What else could be true?CONNECT WITH JESSICA FLINT⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ORACLE DECKS USED⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tea Leaf Fortune Cards⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Animal Spirit Deck⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Rose Oracle Deck

Our chaos, fear, sickness, etc comes from thinking our Will is seperate from God's will.  

This is a reminder the Love, God's Laws, God being with us...does not stop just because you dont see it there.  

One of the hardest things for me to do is to quiet my mind. However, when we do this is when we can filter out the illusions and receive God's Word.

In this conversation with well known sex therapist Angela Skurtu we explore the many dimensions of human sexuality. We delve into many ideas from A Course In Miracles and the need to choose again when it comes to our ideas about sex. What is procreation, what is intimacy and how can we talk about sex? Enjoy this profound conversation! Blessings!!!

“I am not the victim of the world I see.” – A Course in Miracles Workbook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, Lesson 31What if you stopped identifying with the part of you that feels powerless?What if you could claim your power, right now, from the inside out?In this episode, we explore Lesson 31 from the A Course in Miracles Workbook for Students⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, which invites us to break free from the illusion of victimhood. We examine how the stories we tell about ourselves—especially ones rooted in helplessness, blame, or fear—shape the world we see. And more importantly, how we can begin to write new ones.This lesson is a call to radical responsibility. Not as a burden—but as a path back to our power, agency, and peace.Whether you've been looping in blame, waiting to be rescued, or doubting your ability to change… this episode offers a gentle but clear reminder:You are not a victim. You are a creator.Key Insights from Lesson 31✨ Freedom is an inside job: Real freedom doesn't come from changing external circumstances—it begins when we stop believing the ego's script of helplessness and choose to see through the eyes of love and strength.✨ Perception is projection: Your outer world reflects your inner beliefs. Victimhood distorts your perception and locks you into reactive loops. But when you shift your mindset, even slightly, the world reflects that softness and sovereignty back to you.✨ Responsibility is not blame—it's empowerment: To say “I am not a victim” isn't to dismiss the pain you've lived through. It's to stop giving it control over your present. You can choose again. You can write a new chapter. One rooted in compassion, clarity, and conscious choice.Reflection QuestionsWhere in my life do I feel like a victim right now—and what narrative is fueling that feeling?If I fully embraced that I am not a victim of the world I see, how might I meet today's challenges with more personal power and agency?Is there a story I've outgrown but still wear like a second skin? What belief would I need to release to return to who I truly am?What's one small way I can reclaim authorship of my life today, instead of waiting to be rescued or fixed?RESOURCES MENTIONEDThe Three Faces of Victimhood: An Overview of the Victim TriangleIdentifying the Drama TriangleMaking the Shift From Drama to EmpowermentCONNECT WITH JESSICA FLINT⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ORACLE DECKS USED⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tea Leaf Fortune Cards⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Animal Spirit Deck⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Rose Oracle Deck

Contact Welcomed Here“It's not the strongest species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the most responsive to change.”Charles Darwin Responsiveness is the ability to respond - Responsibly. Reactiveness is an automated fight for what is right while wrong. Reactivity precedes impulsivity and immediately triggers compulsive behaviors.  Obsessive thoughts are reactive, defensive, defiant denial, and so delusional.  None of this activity can be kept secret since all obsessive, sick thoughts compel compulsive behaviors.  Subtle or obvious compulsive behaviors are admissions of knowing something is wrong."The horizon of many people is a circle with a radius of zero. They call this their point of view." Albert Einstein. It is not a loss of memory but the lack of human perspective we suffer by imagining all that we are is the subject of subjective thought. A dimension of zero has no perspective in space and time - so any imagined self has no value, awareness, or place since it has no life being wholly imagined.  Feeling like you don't belong is caused by thoughts that have no basis, and so no place in Reality. To think imagination is reality is to think reality is fantasy and turns the extraordinary benefit of imagination into a dire liability.    Thinking is not the source of existence while it is the primary source of human experience. Thinking naturally offers the potential to exist humanely and the freedom to mis-think and act inhumane. Nature is natural and so it is our nature. Insanity is a byproduct of unnatural, unhealthy, abnormal obsessive thinking.  Social ills are the collective nature of sick thoughts: mental illness.  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. Anxious and systemic disorders reflect this impossible attempt to reverse the Laws of the universe that govern nature's order. Disease is the lack of ease created and maintained by such twisted mental acrobatics. Principles affirm our indivisible nature. Sharing principles affirms and confirms our indivisibility. We can choose desperation or Inspiration. Absolute Intelligence is our Knowing nature. Ignoring what is happening produces unintelligible ignorance - not reality.contact@mentalobsession.com

When you search what happens in your life you will likely find that unforegiveness does block Happiness.  Here is another real life scenario that walks us through this concept.

In A Course in Miracles, Jesus invites us to think beyond his personal resurrection and even beyond our own — to a third and even greater vision: the resurrection of the entire world. In this message from a recent Sunday Gathering, Emily Perry explores Section 28 of the Manual for Teachers, What Is the Resurrection?, where Jesus describes a future where everyone — every living heart — awakens, forgives, and returns home to God together. You'll learn what the resurrected world looks like, how we know we're making progress toward it, and how our individual commitment to healing and forgiveness helps speed its arrival. Along the way, Emily reflects on the lives of moral pioneers like Benjamin Lay, ACIM co-scribe Bill Thetford, and the heroes of the Montgomery Bus Boycott — those who stood for a new world long before it became visible to others. Like them, and like Jesus himself, we are called to be early voices of the healed world. If we devote ourselves to forgiveness and love, we can shorten the time it takes for everyone to get home. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles.

A Course in miracles can seem to contradict itself, which brings up much discussion and contemplation for course students.  One question posed by a listener surrounds the issue of why J Dawg says to be the non-judgmental observer, but also says that if you find yourself in a desert, then leave.  Chris and Amy delve into the seeming contradictions, in an attempt to answer one question with one simple Truth.   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

A similar message to a previous message that your part is essential to Gods Plan but this message is important for understanding and reflection.

“God is in everything I see because God is in my mind.” – ⁠A Course in Miracles Workbook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, Lesson 30What if real vision wasn't about your eyes at all—but about your mind?What if what you see around you is a reflection of what's happening within you?In this episode, we explore Lesson 30 from the ⁠A Course in Miracles Workbook⁠⁠⁠ for Students⁠⁠, which invites us to radically shift our understanding of perception. The world we see is a mirror, not a fact. If you've been caught in anxiety, struggling to trust the future, or feeling trapped in cycles of fear, this episode offers a gentle invitation back to peace and power.Key Insights from Lesson 30✨ Vision begins in the mind: Most of what we think we “see” is interpretation shaped by fear and past pain. True vision arises when we align with divine perception—where love, not fear, writes the story we experience.✨ You are not separate from what you see: Everything you perceive is touched by your own inner world. Rather than seeing the external as “other,” this lesson invites us to reclaim our projections with love and recognize that connection, not separation, is the truth.✨ True seeing happens with your heart, not your eyeballs: Real sight is the recognition of light, essence, and holiness beyond form. When we soften the dominance of the physical senses and open the inner eye of the heart, miracles become visible everywhere.Reflection QuestionsWhat if every object and experience in my life was calling me back to the divine within?Can I begin to soften my projections and see with more openness and gentleness?How would it feel to walk through the day knowing that nothing is truly separate from me?Where am I willing to see beyond appearances today?How can I soften my mind's need to control or predict the future, and trust the love already woven into what's coming?What would it feel like to treat everything and everyone I encounter as part of my own return to wholeness?Can I allow anxiety to be a doorway into deeper trust, rather than a reason to retreat into fear?CONNECT WITH JESSICA FLINT⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ORACLE DECKS USED⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tea Leaf Fortune Cards⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Animal Spirit Deck⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Rose Oracle Deck

Continuing to talk about accepting the word of God.  As opposed to accepting what the world tells us we should do.  The word for example says that I AM Spirit. This helps you see someone else this way as well.  The word points to being One with God and others!

Accepting the Word of God is elusive to most people. This is because of many of the things we have talked about on past episodes. But its also very easy to do. You can rest in His word.

First female NFL coach, Dr. Jen Welter, gives play-by-play wisdom on this week's episode. She is living proof of how refusing to be defined by others and living from an open and authentic heart can guide us to live up to our true potential. Jen has a masterful way of sharing the lessons of what she has learned along the way in order to pay it forward and enhance the lives of others, and how it comes down to One Simple Truth. Our mind dictates our reality.   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 Dr. Jen Welter Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/welter47/ Dr. Jen Welter LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/welter47/ Dr. Jen Welter Facebook: https://www.jenwelter.com/ Dr. Jen Welter Website: https://www.jenwelter.com/

Palm Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Week—a time that many of us remember with tradition and reverence. In the Gospel story, Jesus enters Jerusalem to shouts of “Hosanna!” as palm branches are laid at his feet. But A Course in Miracles invites us to see this moment in a new light—not just as the beginning of Jesus' final days, but as the beginning of everyone's spiritual journey home to God. In this message, Robert Perry explores what Holy Week means through the lens of the Course. Rather than focusing on death and sacrifice, the Course shifts the message to forgiveness, innocence, and resurrection—not only for Jesus, but for each one of us… and especially for the people standing right beside us. What if the people in your life—yes, even the difficult ones—are walking their own sacred path to resurrection? What if you could either delay or speed their journey by the way you see and treat them? And what if, in offering them lilies instead of thorns, you were saving yourself as well? ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles.

Have you ever felt like you're standing at a distance from your spiritual path—disengaged, resigned, or quietly doubting whether you're really up to the task? In this Sunday Gathering sermon, Robert Perry explores one of the most beloved prayers in A Course in Miracles—the “Accepting the Atonement” prayer—and the powerful story behind it. Originally given to Bill Thetford as a direct response to his own disengagement from the Course, this prayer speaks to the passive ways we hold ourselves back from healing, love, and the return to God. Drawing from rarely discussed guidance in the Course and newly uncovered context, Robert shows how Jesus lovingly called Bill out of his withdrawal and into full engagement with the path – and how he invites us to do the same. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles.

You are a missing piece to God's Plan for salvation.  You are needed and other need you!

“God is in everything I see.” – ⁠A Course in Miracles Workbook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, Lesson 29What if the sacred wasn't somewhere far away—but hiding in plain sight? In your coffee mug. The pile of laundry. That person who annoys you. Even the pause between your breaths.In this episode, we explore Lesson 29 from the ⁠A Course in Miracles Workbook⁠⁠⁠ for Students⁠, which invites us to consider a bold truth: there is no separation. Everything we see—no matter how mundane, messy, or misunderstood—contains divine essence.This isn't about theology. It's about perception. It's about training our eyes to soften, our judgments to dissolve, and our hearts to open wide enough to find God in everything.If you've been craving connection, feeling spiritually dry, or forgetting the miracle of the present moment—this episode is for you.Key Insights from Lesson 29✨ Nothing is left out of love: This practice invites us to stop sorting the world into categories of worthy and unworthy. Even what feels broken or boring is part of the divine tapestry. There are no exceptions.✨ Seeing the sacred requires surrender: When we stop insisting we already know what something is, we give Spirit room to show us what it really is. Mystery becomes a portal. Stillness becomes our teacher.✨ Divine seeing is less about what you see, and more about how you see: This lesson encourages you to lay down the ego's filter that constantly scans the world for flaws, threats, and hierarchies, and instead look with reverence. This is not seeing with your eyes—it's seeing with your heart that everything is connected, blessed, and holy.Reflection QuestionsWhere in my life do I tend to overlook the presence of love?How might my day feel different if I looked for God in the small, simple things?What would it mean for me to experience God as immanent—woven into the very fabric of everything I see?What if reverence wasn't something saved for temples and mountaintops—but practiced in the kitchen, email inbox, or morning commute?CONNECT WITH JESSICA FLINT⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ORACLE DECKS USED⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tea Leaf Fortune Cards⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Animal Spirit Deck⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Rose Oracle Deck

Today is another day to choose the Holy Spirit and be of one mind with Christ.  

The ego always seeks to divide and seperate and the Holy Spirit seeks to unify and heal.  Here is a reminder to Choose Again.

“Above all else I want to see things differently.” – A Course in Miracles Workbook⁠⁠⁠, Lesson 28What if the table, the teacup, the tension in your body… all had a divine lesson to reveal?What if shifting your perception—even slightly—was the key to unlocking peace, clarity, and connection?In this episode, we explore Lesson 28 from the A Course in Miracles Workbook⁠⁠⁠ for Students, which invites us to loosen our grip on judgment and see the world through new eyes.We discuss how this practice asks us to step back from automatic meaning-making and open to a higher truth—one that blesses instead of burdens, heals instead of harms.If you've been stuck in the same old story, reacting from fear, or just feeling disconnected from the sacred in everyday life—this episode is for you.Key Insights from Lesson 28✨ True vision begins with surrender: This lesson isn't about fixing or improving what you see—it's about releasing your grip on meaning altogether. When you stop insisting you already know, you make space for divine truth to reveal itself.✨ Every object is a doorway to the Divine: Nothing is too ordinary or insignificant to carry a message from Spirit. Even a table can become your teacher—if you're willing to pause, look again, and let it reveal its purpose.✨ The world changes when your mind does: This is the heart of a Course in Miracles. When you shift your perception, the world reflects that shift. Old triggers soften. New possibilities appear. And life becomes sacred again.Reflection QuestionsWhat's something I've been quick to judge or define lately?What might I see if I loosened my grip on “knowing” and opened to something new?Where in my life do I want to see differently—to break free of old beliefs and find new light?COMING UP IN APRIL⁠⁠Body Freedom Training⁠⁠CONNECT WITH JESSICA FLINT⁠⁠⁠⁠Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠ORACLE DECKS USED⁠⁠⁠⁠Tea Leaf Fortune Cards⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Animal Spirit Deck⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Rose Oracle Deck

"I thank You, Father, knowing You will come to close each little gap that lies between the broken pieces of Your holy Son. ²Your Holiness, complete and perfect, lies in every one of them. ³And they are joined because what is in one is in them all. ⁴How holy is the smallest grain of sand, when it is recognized as being part of the completed picture of God's Son! ⁵The forms the broken pieces seem to take mean nothing. ⁶For the whole is in each one. ⁷And every aspect of the Son of God is just the same as every other part."

In this episode of Exploring A Course in Miracles, Robert & Emily Perry dive into the question so many of us are asking: How do we stay spiritually grounded in a world that feels increasingly unhinged? Drawing from Course teachings, Robert & Emily introduce a 3-step process for navigating these turbulent times with clarity, compassion, and conviction. This conversation challenges the idea that spiritual practice means disengagement from the world. Instead, it affirms that Course students are called to show up—clear-eyed, open-hearted, and rooted in love. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles.

In a world that is increasingly consumed by fear, injustice, and division, many of us are left asking: What do we do with our anger? In this sermon from a recent Sunday Gathering, Emily Perry draws inspiration from Martin Luther King Jr.'s timeless message in “A Knock at Midnight” and explores how A Course in Miracles invites us to respond to anger in a spiritually-grounded way. Through practical insights and personal stories, we'll look at: • How conventional views of anger shape our thinking • What the Course teaches about the roots of anger • A 3-step healing process for transforming anger into love • Why miracle-mindedness—not rage—is our true source of strength If you're feeling the darkness of our time and longing to be a light within it, this message is for you. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles.

“My Attack Thoughts Are Attacking My Invulnerability.” – A Course in Miracles Workbook⁠, Lesson 26Have you ever noticed how quickly we go into mental battle mode—criticizing, judging, or trying to control—when we feel unsafe, insecure, or vulnerable?This week on Love & Learn, we explore Lesson 26 from A Course in Miracles Workbook⁠, which reveals a powerful paradox: the more we attack, the more vulnerable we feel. And the more vulnerable we feel, the more we attack.In this episode, Jessica unpacks the concept of invulnerability not as denial, but as a spiritual remembering. We are reminded that our true Self—the part of us beyond ego and form—is incapable of being wounded. This episode also includes an honest reflection on how this lesson interacts with real-world threats, wealth inequality, and systemic injustice. Jessica shares her own perspective on discernment and how we can hold both spiritual invulnerability and human vulnerability at the same time.Key Insights from Lesson 26✨ Every attack thought is an act of self-harm: When we believe we can attack others, we simultaneously believe we can be attacked. This mindset diminishes our sense of safety and erodes our connection to peace.✨ Vulnerability is created in the mind—not the world: According to the Course, your true Self is untouchable, eternal, and safe. But when we choose thoughts of fear, judgment, or control, we forget that—and invite the illusion of threat.✨ Only your thoughts can make you feel vulnerable—and only your thoughts can restore your invulnerability: You don't need someone else to change for you to feel secure. You don't need the world to be perfect. What you need is to notice the thoughts that create fear—and choose differently.Reflection QuestionsWhere in my life am I bracing for attack instead of standing in love?What thoughts do I entertain that make me feel weak, unsafe, or small?In what situations do I confuse fear-based control with protection?How might my experience shift if I believed I was invulnerable—safe in my essence, no matter what?RESOURCES MENTIONEDBody Freedom Training@garyseconomics YouTube ChannelCONNECT WITH JESSICA FLINT⁠⁠Website⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠ORACLE DECKS USED⁠⁠Tea Leaf Fortune Cards⁠⁠⁠⁠Animal Spirit Deck⁠⁠⁠⁠The Rose Oracle Deck

"I Do Not Know What Anything Is For." – A Course in Miracles Workbook, Lesson 25Have you ever been so certain about something, convinced it was "good" or "bad", only to realize later that you misunderstood its purpose entirely?In this episode of Love & Learn, we explore Lesson 25 from A Course in Miracles Workbook for Students. This lesson challenges us to step back from our assumptions and recognize that we may not truly understand the meaning of what's happening in our lives. By surrendering the need to know, we create space for a deeper wisdom to emerge—one that serves our highest good, even when we don't yet see how.Key Insights from Lesson 25✨ The Ego's Assumptions Are Not Reality: The ego thrives on certainty. It clings to labels, judgments, and familiar narratives because they provide a sense of control. But the danger in this is that we end up seeing what we expect to see, rather than what is actually there. We misinterpret situations, project old wounds onto new experiences, and resist change because it threatens the framework we've built in our minds. Instead of saying, “I already know what this means,” we begin to ask, “What else could this be? What might I be missing?”✨ Meaning Emerges When We Let Go: Trying to control meaning keeps us trapped in a narrow, ego-driven perspective—one that filters everything through past experiences, fears, and personal expectations. When we cling to our own interpretations, we block the possibility of seeing things differently. By surrendering preconceived notions, we create space for divine wisdom to flow in. Letting go doesn't mean becoming passive; it means shifting from force to faith, from grasping to allowing.✨ Personal Interests Can Mislead Us: The goals we set for ourselves are often shaped by fear, ego, or external expectations rather than what truly serves us. When we cling to these personal agendas, we may overlook a greater path unfolding for our best interest. This lesson encourages us to recognize where our desires might be misaligned and to open ourselves to a deeper, more meaningful guidance.Reflection QuestionsWhere in my life am I assuming I already understand something's purpose?How does my attachment to specific outcomes affect my ability to trust life's unfolding?In what ways have my personal desires or interests misled me in the past?What might shift in my experience if I fully trusted that everything is happening for my highest good?Press play to explore how letting go of rigid expectations can lead to deeper clarity, trust, and transformation in your life.CONNECT WITH JESSICA FLINT⁠Website⁠⁠Instagram⁠ORACLE DECKS USED⁠Tea Leaf Fortune Cards⁠⁠Animal Spirit Deck⁠⁠The Rose Oracle Deck
