Love Holds No Grievances

Rev. Barbara Brown Allen

imageImagine we are in the lounge area of an up-scale restaurant in southern California. It is dark; lights are dimmed and table candles are glowing. The patrons are sitting around the tables or at the bar, drinking and smoking. Sitting at the bar, you face a wall of mirrors lined with shelves of whiskies, brandies, and colored liqueurs. The lounge opens every morning of the year at 7 a.m., and about 30 people gather daily. I come here every morning to meet these people. The booze is corked, and the people are drinking coffee, a lot of coffee. It might seem a little odd for these people to meet every day in a bar and drink only coffee, but this is a daily meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous. This is where we tell each other our stories — what it used to be like, what happened, and what we are like now — and in so doing, help ourselves and others to get sober and stay sober.

What Is a Miracle?

by Dennis Gaither, M.D.

imageSo what is a miracle, anyway? There is something very compelling about the idea of miracles; something that engages our imagination, some deeply yearning part of us. They have been the stuff of folklore and faith for millennia. Whether curious, hopeful, disdainful or fascinated, few are neutral in their beliefs about what a miracle is.

From the Classroom to the Street — Literally

Rev. Carol K. Springer-Witfoth

imageThe Course teaches us to see the Christ in everyone. Everyone. In the beginning it was a challenge and a joy to see the Light in as many people as possible. When I couldn’t, I simply acknowledged that Christ was there. Bare in mind that I did not remember to look for or acknowledge that in everyone. Sometimes I still don’t. I am a beginner among beginners. Holy Spirit provided the following, unexpected, beautiful lesson.

What Is Forgiveness?

Rev. Sally Pankratz

imageEven though I’ve been a sudent of A Course in Miracles for many years and more recently have also been communing with The Way of Mastery and The Holy Spirit’s Interpretation of the New Testament, I still haven’t felt comfortable with forgiveness. Most times when I read the word, I hear, “What’s forgiveness?” And when I apply what I think it is, it still feels like judgement and guilt.

God’s Insurance Plan

Rev. Annie Arbona

imageOne of my favorite quotes from A Course in Miracles  (T-20.IV.8:4-12) is one that is included in Pathways of Light ministerial training course 201: Adventure into the Sacred Life — Introduction to Spiritual Ministry. Here Jesus lovingly explains to us how we are taken by the hand when we commit to following God’s Plan. I feel such power emanating from those words, and I feel so safe when I read them. It’s like having a Mega-Eternal-Perfect-God-Given Insurance Plan with no expiration date. And it’s not “like having,” we do have it forever. Wow!

A Weight Lifted

Rev. Marta Schwartz

imageRecently, I have had two incidents that I cannot fully explain without the help of Holy Spirit. The first happened while I was working. I am a massage therapist. While I was in session with a client, I kept experiencing a troubling thought pattern. This went on for several minutes and became very distracting to me.

What Is a Teacher of God?

Rev. Jean Weston

imageIn the Manual for Teachers under section 1 the first sentence states: “A teacher of God is anyone who chooses to be one. His qualifications consist solely in this; somehow, somewhere he has made a deliberate choice in which he did not see his interests as apart from someone else’s.”

Miracle Mind Power

by Rev. Therese Anne Ward

imageI don’t know what happened, how it happened or why it happened, only that it did happen to me in November of 2007. Thanksgiving was coming up and I was thinking about preparations for our family celebration of giving thanks to God for all the good in our lives. The brilliant orange, red and yellow colors of autumn standing out against the deep burgundy and browns of the waning foliage, always calls me to introspection, praise and thanksgiving.

The Power of Willingness

Revs. Robert & Mary Stoelting

imageWe just completed video taping the Regina Dawn Akers 3-day workshop here in Kiel, Wisconsin. It was an incredibly powerful three days of returning to the truth and remembering what we are really here for — to wake up from dreams of separation. There were many insightful and inspiring discussions, along with lots of laughter and play in the form of swimming, canoeing, and eating meals together.

I Am Fresh in Heaven

by Brenda Eden

imageThis title is one of the sharings that Rev. Robert B. Mills told me as I sat with him in our home as he prepared to be done with the body. “Heaven is here. There is nowhere else. Heaven is now. There is no other time.” ACIM M-24.6:4-7

Surrounded by Angels

Rev. Johannys Hartog

imageIt was like I was deaf when I was told the news. My brain couldn’t process what my ears had just heard.

The afternoon of July 18, 2007 was beautiful. I was at my home with one of my sisters, helping her with some projects, when the phone rang. The doctor was calling to give me the results of my breast biopsy, which I had repeatedly been told would be negative. I remember her words clearly. She coldly said,  “Unfortunately, you have cancer.”  What? She repeated those words.  I remember my heart beat accelerating.

The Exciting Dream

Rev. Larry Glenz

imageAfter 36 years as a history teacher and coach of several sports at the same high school, I am now in the final two months before my retirement from a long and rewarding career. Any major change in the “external world” is usually a source of anxiety for those of us still too attached to the ego-self and the illusion of who we think we are. I have loved being “Mr. Glenz” in the classroom and “Coach Glenz” on the field for so long I have come to believe that this is who I really am. Everything except the concepts I’ve learned from A Course in Miracles tells me that I really am this guy!
