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.

  • How to be More Loving
    Jul 30 2025

    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.

  • A New Vision of Faith
    Jul 21 2025

    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.

  • A Call for Justice
    Jun 30 2025

    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.

  • Understanding Forgiveness: Common Questions Answered
    Jun 9 2025

    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.

  • Changing Our Frame From Fear to Love
    Jun 2 2025

    In this message, Emily Perry explores the hidden “frame of reference” we each bring to everything we see—and how A Course in Miracles invites us to shift from the ego’s frame of distortion to the Holy Spirit’s frame of love. Drawing on stories from daily life, Course quotes, and the concept of “reality testing,” this talk reveals how our current lens shapes our world—and how we can choose a new one.

  • Does ACIM Want Us to Save the World?
    Jun 2 2025

    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.
