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.

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.

How to be More Loving 56:36

56:36

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 .

A New Vision of Faith 29:54

לפני 4 weeks29:54

29:54

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 .

A Call for Justice 28:42

לפני 8 weeks28:42

28:42

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 .

In this episode of Exploring A Course in Miracles , Robert and Emily Perry explore one of the most misunderstood themes in the Course: our role in the world’s healing. While the Course teaches that form is an illusion, it also affirms that minds are real, God has a plan to save the world, and each of us has an essential part to play. This conversation addresses common objections—like “seek not to change the world”—and reveals the deeper vision the Course offers: not detachment, but active love. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles.

The Wisdom of Joyful Resistance (Sunday Gathering Sermon) 30:44

לפני 13 weeks30:44

30:44

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 .

The Resurrection of the World: Collective Awakening in A Course in Miracles 32:07

לפני 16 weeks32:07

32:07

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 .

Palm Sunday: Lessons from A Course in Miracles 26:47

לפני 18 weeks26:47

26:47

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 .

Holding Yourself Aloof from the Path 34:32

לפני 18 weeks34:32

34:32

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 .

What Do We Do With Our Anger? 32:51

לפני 21 weeks32:51

32:51

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 .

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 .

What Does ACIM Say About the Bible? 58:18

For many spiritual seekers, A Course in Miracles and the Bible seem like two completely different paths. And yet, the Course references the Bible more than anything else—with nearly 900 biblical quotes and allusions throughout its 2,000 pages. So what does the Course actually say about the Bible? How does it affirm, reinterpret, or even correct biblical teachings? And what does this mean for students of the Course today? In this episode of Exploring A Course in Miracles , Emily and Robert dive deep into: How the Course grants authority to the Bible—especially the Gospels Why Jesus urges students to read the Bible and examine his credentials The Course’s reinterpretation of key biblical passages (e.g., “Vengeance is Mine,” “God is not mocked”) How Jesus reframes the meaning of his crucifixion and resurrection The bigger picture: how the Course aims to recover the Bible’s true message of love Whether you’ve struggled with the relationship between A Course in Miracles and the Bible or you’re just curious to learn more, this conversation is one of the most important we’ve ever had. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles .

In this episode, Emily Perry explores the theme of Workbook Lesson 27 from A Course in Miracles : “Above all else I want to see.” [CE W-27:1] This lesson invites us to embrace a shift in perception, emphasizing the importance of seeing the world through spiritual vision rather than through the distorted lens of the ego. In this Sunday Gathering sermon, you’ll learn how the Course encourages us to “undo” our current way of seeing, how to “restore” the spiritual sight that already resides within us, and the vital role of determination in achieving the Course’s goal of spiritual vision. This sermon was delivered at a recent Sunday Gathering, which is free and open to all and held on the 2nd and 4th Sundays of each month.

What We Learned from the 28-Day Relationship Challenge 1:02:13

In this episode, Emily and Robert Perry from the Circle of Atonement reflect on what they learned from their recent 28-Day Relationship Challenge. This challenge, hosted for the members of the Circle's Course Companions community, focused on applying the ten characteristics of a spiritually advanced teacher of God from the Manual for Teachers of A Course in Miracles to transform relationships. The challenge was inspired by the realization that when we want change in our relationships, we often focus on changing others rather than ourselves. Emily and Robert took on the task of embodying the Course's definition of a spiritually advanced teacher for 30 days, trusting the Course's methods and principles and letting go of the usual impulse to control. Here, they share insights on how characteristics like trust, tolerance, gentleness, defenselessness, patience, and generosity can deeply impact how we show up in relationships. They discuss the challenges and rewards of applying these traits, such as how embracing defenselessness can bring peace to difficult situations or how practicing patience stems from trusting that the outcome is certain. Tune in for a deep dive into how these profound teachings can transform your relationships and lead to the ultimate goal of the A Course in Miracles curriculum: forgiveness. Want to try the 28-Day Relationship Challenge yourself? The replays and handouts from the challenge are available in the Course Companions program.

Join Emily Perry for an exploration of "Jesus and the Disinherited through the lens of A Course in Miracles ." Inspired by Howard Thurman’s seminal work that shaped the spiritual foundation of the American Civil Rights Movement, this sermon dives into the profound connections between Jesus' teachings, nonviolence, and social justice. In this message, you'll discover how Thurman’s insights illuminate Jesus as a figure of liberation for the oppressed, offering a path from fear, deceit, and hate to faith, integrity, and love. You'll also learn the ways Thurman's wisdom overlaps with the teachings of A Course in Miracles , particularly in its call to transcend inner darkness with love and forgiveness as a force for personal and collective transformation. If you've ever wondered how spirituality can meaningfully address social injustice or how faith can inspire true transformation, this message is for you.

Raising Children in Light: Parenting Lessons from A Course in Miracles (Sunday Gathering Sermon) 35:39

לפני 51 weeks35:39

A Course in Miracles contains a beautiful picture of what it is to be a parent. The Course speaks of parents as being in service of the spiritual development of children, with the major themes of instilling wisdom, providing emotional, and physical safety, and love. If we do this well, we can deposit what the Course calls a "reserve of strength" into the hearts of our children that can both prepare them for and repair them from the damage inflicted by this world. If you're interested in what the Course teaches on the topic of parenting, you won't want to miss this Sunday Gathering sermon from Emily Perry. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles .

In the months before A Course in Miracles started coming through, scribe Helen Schucman had three different Priestess visions that all appear to represent a past life of hers. One of those visions would continue to recur for years and even makes an appearance in the Text and the Workbook of the Course. But who is the Priestess, and why does she matter to our own spiritual journey? In this conversation, Robert and Emily discuss a little-known but very important element of the Course's story that has the potential to transform your entire prayer practice. __________________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles .

Special Messages are a series of personal messages Helen received that also contain beautiful and important teachings on our personal functions, as well as the function of A Course in Miracles more broadly. In this discussion, Robert and Emily offer a preview of their upcoming 11-week series "The Forgotten Material: Exploring Helen Schucman's Final Dictation and Special Messages," which begins on August 12th and is open to members of our Course Companions program.

From Words to Experience in A Course in Miracles 59:06

In contemporary spirituality, we are told to "go beyond concepts and words" to a more direct connection with God. We are told not to be too "in our heads" because thinking blocks spiritual experience. These are very popular teachings, but how should we view these ideas as students of A Course in Miracles , especially given that the Course is 2,000 pages of words? Not surprisingly, the Course has its own answer to this question - namely, it's is asking us to use words as a way to go beyond words. To put it another way, we're meant to use words as the vehicle to reach experience and, in this episode, Robert and Emily share what that means and how the Course asks us to do it. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles .

When it comes to A Course in Miracles , one thing students are always asking is, “How do I make the Course practical?” A Course in Miracles , however, is full of practical instructions. The Course aims to enclose our day in different forms of practice in order “to make the day as happy for you as God wants it to be” and even to make “the business of the day…holy.” In this episode, Robert and Emily take a brief tour through the many ways in which the Course instructs us to live its teaching. They do so in the form of a colorful "Walking the Path" diagram which captures both how to live the Course and what it's asking us to do each day.

Amidst all of life's chaos, we find ourselves hoping that someone up there has got a plan—a plan for our lives, a plan for our world. It's hard to shake this hope, even when we don't believe in God. At the same time, the notion of God's plan comes with a lot of baggage for fear of what it will ask of us. In this episode, Robert and Emily explore the concept of God's plan as it appears in A Course in Miracles . In the Course, God's plan runs all the way from the most general—what will bring everyone home to God—to the most specific—what we should do in the next hour. And at every point, God's plan contrasts with our plans for what will make us happy. If you have wanted to understand God's plan and if you've wanted a new perspective on it, this is an episode you won't want to miss. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles .

This notion, however, raises so many questions: Do we even have a purpose or is life merely random? If we do have one, how do we find out what it is? How do we prepare for it? And once in it, how do we deal with practical issues like money? In this episode, Robert and Emily share the Course’s teaching on life purpose, which it calls our special function. They share the Course’s answers to practical questions on this topic, along with some of their own experience being called to fulfill a function that was different than either one had planned, yet in the end was far more rewarding.

A Course in Miracles is frequently described as a "nondual" path. It's true that both the Course and nonduality teach that everything is ultimately one and separation is an illusion. However, there are significant differences as well, and those differences amount to contrasting worldviews. In this episode, Robert and Emily present a general overview the distinctions between nondual teachings and A Course in Miracles . Topics covered include fundamental differences related to "self vs. no self", the nature of God, the idea of whether A Course in Miracles uses dualistic language to lead us to a nondual truth, what the Course specifically says about personhood, relationship to others, free will, and more.

Every minute of every day we are faced with the question of what matters and what doesn't. What if we are getting it all wrong? We've been told to put the big rocks in first and not to sweat the small stuff, but what are the big rocks? And what is the small stuff? A Course in Miracles has surprising yet compelling views on this topic. In its teaching, most everything we attend to, worry about, and sweat over is firmly in the category of what doesn't matter. This doesn't mean that nothing matters and that we should just drift. There are things that truly matter. It's just that they have been largely off our radar, gathering dust while we attend to more "important" things.

Rethinking Spiritual Authority 1:02:36

לפני 1 year1:02:36

1:02:36

In the spiritual field, we tend to grant enormous authority to those who claim to be directly in touch with true reality and who speak with total certainty. But should we? In this episode, Robert and Emily argue that the very nature of perception is that it’s uncertain. No one on earth really knows in the fullest sense of the word. What do we do, then, when someone steps forward and says they know with utter certainty because they are a direct conduit for ultimate reality? If you’ve ever given a spiritual teacher your total trust, only to withdraw it later, you will want to watch this episode. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles .

We often keep the subject of Jesus at arm's length due to the baggage that so many of us carry around him. Yet we would benefit by letting go of this baggage, by forgiving Jesus for the fearful images we put on him. This will allow him to help us in all the ways that he is offering to do. He wants to be our teacher. He wants to be our personal guide. And he wants to work through us to carry out his mission in the world. He is already with us, trying to help, yet he says, "you would imprison me behind the obstacles you raise." How can we stop putting up these obstacles?

Is the Shroud of Turin Proof of Jesus' Resurrection?: An Interview with Joe Marino 45:50

לפני 1 year45:50

If the Shroud of Turin is authentic, then it is by far the most direct evidence we have of the historical Jesus. It is a burial cloth that, if genuine, is stained with his blood and contains an image apparently projected from his body. But is it authentic? In this episode, Robert and Emily interview Joe Marino, one of the leading authorities on the Shroud in the world. A Course in Miracles says that the resurrection was "the final demonstration" that all of the other lessons which Jesus taught are true. The Shroud holds out the tantalizing possibility that it is a photograph of that final demonstration. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles .

New Allyship and the Principle of Love: An Interview with Holiday Phillips 57:22

In 2020, after the murder of George Floyd, coach and organizational development expert Holiday Phillips had a post on performative allyship go viral. Her followers jumped from 1,000 to more than 50,000 overnight, and suddenly Holiday found herself as a voice for social justice during the rise of Black Lives Matter. Now, with a sizable audience and "influencer" status, Holiday discovered that her message of love and compassion as a way through righteous anger and division has been a more complex journey than she could ever have imagined. In this honest and important conversation, Holiday and Circle executive director Emily Perry discuss the importance of "holding the pole" of love in a world full of hate, the importance of standing for the principle of love in the face of public criticism, the dangers of harnessing the power of rage, and why violence and oppression can never lead to love and equality. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles .

Why Did Jesus Die? 55:26

לפני 1 year55:26

55:26

The crucifixion is the main event in Christianity. Christians generally view Jesus' death as a payment for our sins so that God will forgive us and we can go to Heaven. Increasingly, however, this is leading to a "crisis of faith" where many who sincerely love Jesus can't reconcile him with a God who enacts revenge and violence. How could a loving God murder His own Son? Not surprisingly, A Course in Miracles has an entirely different view of Jesus' crucifixion. Indeed, rather than seeing the sacrifice and suffering associated with the cross as symbolic of the way OUT of the ego, the Course sees it as symbolic OF the ego—what the ego does to us. And, in the end, the Course offers a completely new reframe of the crucifixion and a way to model the best of Jesus' teaching without getting caught in the worst of religion. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles .

A Course in Miracles teaches that each one of us is here to be a savior. This is not about having a “savior complex." This is a healthy and fulfilling understanding of our true purpose on earth. But how does the Course define this term? What does it mean when it says we are each other’s savior? And how does the Course’s view differ from trying to “rescue” or “fix” someone? In this episode, Robert and Emily Perry discuss the teachings on “savior” in A Course in Miracles as a preview for their workshop “How We Save Each Other: The New Concept of Savior in A Course in Miracles .” You can learn more and register for this workshop at circleofa.org/savior, and if you’re catching this after the workshop has been recorded, you can find access to this and all of our workshop replays within our Course Companions program at coursecompanions.com. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles .

Forgiveness is part of the human experience and is the Course’s central teaching. But students are often confused about how to understand forgiveness and how to practice it.

We came away with such rich learning from these four weeks, both personally and from the group experience.

"Attack is a call for love" is a well-known concept among students of A Course in Miracles . That said, what we tend to think it means is that we attack, but we weren't trying to do any harm - we were just looking for love and it came out the wrong way. In the Course, however, "attack is a call for love" doesn't mean "we attack because we're just looking for love" - it means something very different but truly sublime.

It can be a dilemma: You need to set a boundary with someone, and yet you don’t want to be unloving. Helen Schucman, the scribe of A Course in Miracles , faced this very situation. A man she had counseled had developed feelings for her, and now she faced the quandary of what to do. She first received guidance and then wrote him a long letter, a letter which appears to have been inspired from a higher source. In this podcast, Robert and Emily will reveal the ingenious solution that Helen opted for in dealing with this situation. They will also explore how we can apply the essence of her solution to our own challenging situations where we need to set a boundary with love. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles .

Make This Year Different 1:06:09

A Course in Miracles teaches that time is unreal, yet it also speaks of giving a “year” to God. The Text refers to the New Year 11 times, saying, “This is the year for the application of the ideas that have been given you” [CE T-16.II.10:4] . And the Workbook refers to its year 6 times, calling it “the year that we have given God” [CE W-PtII.In.4:3] . In this episode, Robert and Emily will explore both the Text’s and the Workbook’s vision of a year given to God. How do we do that? Are we supposed to make an actual New Year’s resolution? And if so, what is it? And how does this approach to the New Year relate to making our usual resolutions to lose weight, go to the gym, get organized, etc.? Emily and Robert discuss all of these questions at length, resulting in an episode that might just transform how you approach the New Year. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles .
