    True Empathy in a Wounded World

    In a time when empathy is increasingly being framed as a weakness—even a danger—this sermon asks a deeper question: what happens to us when we stop listening to one another's pain? Drawing on current cultural trends and the teachings of A Course in Miracles, Emily Perry explores the difference between conventional empathy, which often bonds us through shared suffering, and what the Course calls true empathy—a way of relating that does not join in pain but instead recognizes and strengthens the truth in one another. True empathy invites us to step aside and allow the Holy Spirit to relate through us, offering a form of compassion that heals without binding us to the past. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles.

    Love Without Sacrifice: Releasing Others from Our Demands

    In this episode of Exploring A Course in Miracles, Robert and Emily Perry explore one of the Course's most challenging and liberating teachings: love without sacrifice. Drawing especially from Chapter 15 of the Text, this conversation looks at how many of our relationships are quietly shaped by what the Course calls demands for sacrifice. We often believe that love means giving things up for one another—but according to the Course, this pattern can lead to resentment, guilt, hidden anger, and a cycle that keeps both people trapped. Together, Emily and Robert unpack: How we unconsciously equate love with sacrifice Why sacrifice inevitably breeds resentment and guilt How guilt becomes the hidden currency in our relationships Why we demand that others not leave us—and what that costs us How this dynamic shows up in real relationships, including a moving story from the Circle community The Course's radical alternative: releasing others from our demands so that both can be free The episode closes with a powerful practice from A Course in Miracles for releasing loved ones from our demands and stepping into relationships grounded in forgiveness rather than control. If you've ever felt burdened by your relationships—or sensed that something called "love" didn't actually feel very loving—this conversation offers a deeply hopeful way forward. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles.

    Choosing Love in Violent Times (Sunday Gathering Sermon)

    In this Sunday Gathering sermon, "Choosing Love in Violent Times," Emily Perry draws on Martin Luther King Jr.'s "Birth of a New Age" sermon and A Course in Miracles to explore how love, forgiveness, and nonviolence can become powerful tools for personal and social transformation. This message reflects on King's call to reject bitterness, choose redemption over retaliation, and help bring forth a new world grounded in courage, spiritual maturity, and love. We hope you'll plan to join us for our next Sunday Gathering. Access is included with a Course Companions membership. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles.

    Healing from Grief and Loss with A Course in Miracles (Sunday Gathering Sermon)

    In this Sunday Gathering sermon, Emily Perry explores how A Course in Miracles understands grief and loss and what it offers us when the pain feels overwhelming. Drawing on lived experience, psychological research, and the Course's teachings, Emily examines why grief often comes in waves, how grief differs from depression, why healing does not come from "moving on" but from integrating a new reality, and the Course's radical idea that grief arises not from loss itself but from how loss is interpreted. If you are grieving, walking alongside someone who is, or simply seeking a deeper spiritual understanding of loss, this sermon offers a perspective rooted in the assurance that love is never truly lost. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles.

    Separation of Church and Hate with John Fugelsang

    In this episode of Exploring A Course in Miracles, Emily & Robert Perry sit down with New York Times bestselling author and Sirius XM host John Fugelsang to explore his insightful new book, Separation of Church and Hate: A Sane Person's Guide to Taking Back the Bible from Fundamentalists, Fascists, and Flock-Fleecing Frauds*.  John has spent years unpacking how the teachings of Jesus have been distorted by Christian nationalism—and why reclaiming Jesus' message of love, justice, and human dignity is more urgent than ever. Along the way, there is a reflection on the surprising overlap between John's biblical insights and the message of A Course in Miracles—especially the emphasis on refusing to meet hatred with more hatred. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles.

    Accept the Holy Instant as This Year Is Born (Sunday Gathering Sermon)

    As a new year approaches, many of us feel a deep longing for a true fresh start—not just a change in circumstances, but a real release from the past. In this sermon, given on December 28, we explore a powerful and often overlooked teaching from A Course in Miracles: how entering the holy instant can give birth to a year of genuine joy and freedom. Drawing from the final sections of Chapter 15, this talk reframes Christmas and the New Year as the "time of Christ"—a time not only for reflection, but for profound inner change. At the heart of this change is a radical idea: that freedom comes from releasing others from our hidden demands for sacrifice. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles.

    Jesus's First Instructions on How to Live A Course in Miracles

    In this conversation about Jesus's First Instructions on How to Live A Course in Miracles, Robert and Emily go back to the earliest days of the dictation of A Course in Miracles, when Jesus was first speaking to Helen Schucman and laying out—right from the start—how this Course was meant to be lived. The night before Helen heard the words, "This is a course in miracles. Please take notes," and in the weeks immediately afterward, Jesus gave direct guidance. He described what to do, how to approach this path, and how to live it—before the Course even fully took shape. In this episode you'll hear: What Jesus said to Helen and Bill in the earliest dictation How those instructions frame the entire Course Why the beginning matters for how the Course is lived today If you've ever wondered whether there's something essential in the way the Course was introduced—something that still matters for students now—this conversation is for you. ✨ Continue the Journey with Course Companions If this teaching resonated and you feel called to truly live A Course in Miracles in the new year, we invite you to join Course Companions.
