July - September, 2009
Having spent the weekend hosting the “ON” workshop at Pathways of Light, I went home on Sunday evening after being gone for the last 6 days. I went to bed and was suddenly awakened by a pain shooting up my neck into my head. It woke me from a sound sleep at 3 a.m. Then I had been having dizzy spells, so the next day I thought I had better call the doctor.
I’m not one to go to the doctor very often, but this time I thought I should go. I made an appointment for the next day. When I got there, I had my blood pressure taken and after answering a lot of questions the doctor said I had to have some blood drawn and an EKG. After fasting, I went to have the blood drawn the next morning and then drove to Pathways of Light to work.

I open my heart to You, Holy Spirit, and invite You in. I ask for Your guidance. I gladly step back and let You lead the way. Holy Spirit, help each of us to receive from this article whatever it is we most need. Amen
I never write or teach or counsel without first stepping back and setting the intention to allow the Holy Spirit to lead. Sometimes I become enamored with the sound of my own voice and forget to listen, but am getting good at recognizing when this happens and then deciding to stop. Not perfect yet, but definitely better.

I wish to share with you a very moving experience that I had while visiting the West African country of Ghana. I was there as part of a delegation, sponsored by the Seattle based organization Global Citizen Journey (http://globalcitizenjourney.org/), consisting of a small group of Ghanaians and North Americans on a many-faceted mission to build an orphanage in the fishing village of Axim. It was a challenging, but also joyful process in which hands, minds and hearts reached across the illusory barriers of geography, language, race and culture to join in common purpose.

I was looking forward to September of 2003. My daughter had turned 5 earlier that year and was starting school. I had chosen to put my professional life on hold during the last 5 years so I could be at home with her. This decision not only afforded me the joy of this time together, but also gave me a more flexible schedule. I was able to work on certain personal and professional areas of my life. It was during this time that I completed the Pathways of Light Spiritual Counselor Training Program, enrolled in the University of Metaphysics graduate studies program and began developing the professional speaking business.

This summer it has been unusually stormy in the area of Charleston where I live. We’ve had a lot of heat lightning, thunder, wind, hail, and of course a lot of rain.
I’ve often wondered if it is all a reflection of the storminess in our minds. On this particular night the answer for me was indeed a yes! As I observed the lightning and thunder outside, I became more and more aware of the storm occurring inside of myself.

Having recently retired from a long career as a high school history teacher and a coach of several sports, I have been enthusiastic about using my Pathways of Light ministry to teach about my greatest passion, A Course in Miracles.
I absolutely love A Course in Miracles. Why I firmly believe it speaks of spiritual “Truth,” I cannot say. Although it is only one path of thousands designed to connect us to our Creator — when it is the path that is meant for you, you seem to recognize it. I’ve been studying ACIM for 15 years now and I still feel I can’t fully understand much of what it says. Nevertheless, I somehow firmly believe all it says is the truth and I’m truly grateful that it all resonates in me so powerfully.

May 2009 marked the 4th anniversary of my ordination from Pathways of Light. Since that time, the question I hear the most is “What are doing with your ministry?” I often find myself wondering how best to respond to this question.
My first thought is that we are all teachers and students every minute of every day so we minister to each other and to ourselves in every breath we take. For some, their ministry shows up in sharing with large groups of people in a group or church setting. For others, it may mean writing and sharing your experiences online, in a newsletter, journal or book. Yet again, it might be ministering one on one with the people in your life.

In talking about peace I would like to share a personal story with you. Over the past month or so I have had the opportunity of providing peace to my loving parents and ultimately to me. How did this all come about? Well, during my travels to Miami for business, over the last several months, I got to visit and spend some quality time with them. It was a pretty amazing experience for me. During this visit I realized what a wonderful and, what I call, ‘cute’ life they have. They both still drive, mom works part time and dad golf’s every day. Oh did I mention they are 82?

Loving thoughts are the only thoughts that are real and true. They point the way to the experience of Love Itself. They are reminders of who we are. They can only be experienced in this present moment. Loving thoughts, being real, do not exist in the past or future because there is no past or future, only the Eternal Now.

There was once a boy named Barret. Barret was a happy boy, at least that’s how he remembers himself. The times of sadness, envy bitterness and unfulfilled plans had receded into the dim recesses of time, easily outshone by memories of happiness that were not the only thing he experienced. His illusory past of ‘only happiness’ served well his desire to feel diminished by the circumstances in his life currently. How could now not feel less than ideal when an imaginary idyllic childhood stays in the background, overshadowing the ideas he had about his life? When Barret allowed himself to see how he used his past as a shield against experiencing the happiness under the fear, the importance that he had given it became less pressing.

Now you can listen to Regina Dawn Akers and Laurent Elie Levy share first hand how they are applying NTI in their daily lives. Hear the group interaction, questions and answers. You will want to listen to this series again and again to strengthen and accelerate your awakening.

As you may know, in November of 2007, we received guidance that Pathways of Light was to move to Florida. Many steps needed to happen for that transition to occur. The residence was renovated and the property has been listed for sale. While the property is still for sale, we have taken another step toward following through on the guidance from Spirit.

Note from Robert and Mary Stoelting:
John Hutkin and Rev. Mary Gerard Lenihan are the publishers of the remarkable newly published The Book ON… and Jesus answers. In the following interview they share with us about how they came across the scribed book, The Mirror on Still Water and how this led to their working with the scribe Joel Wright to get The Book ON ready for publication.
They also share about how Mary Gerard Lenihan received the inspiring book Visions of Illumination and how Jesus is leading both John and Mary to teach through demonstration by handing over all judgments to the Holy Spirit to see everything differently. They also share about an upcoming workshop WNYHOO (The World Needs Your Help One-to-One NOW)
Robert: How did you find out about Joel Wright and his work?

One morning as I sat reading from The Book ON, I felt so comforted by Jesus. The chapter I had just read was one where Jesus was asking us again to please not put him apart from us. He asked us to see him as one with ourselves. He said, “ I am your sister/brother, and am part of you.” It reminded me of a place in A Course in Miracles where Jesus says, “If you only knew Who walked beside you, fear would be impossible.”
