"Perfectionism/Self-Acceptance"

revs@miraclesone.org (Revs. Paul & Deb Phelps) — Wed, 5 Mar 2008 10:07:37 -0500

Recorded March 5th, 2008 This has been a hot topic for two of our weekly study groups, so we were guided to explore a little bit more about the ego’s idea of perfection vs. the Holy Spirit’s idea of perfection. All this tied in with accepting ourselves for who we really are and accepting that “God’s Will for me is perfect happiness.” Join us as we share our life experiences through Practical Application of A Course in Miracles.

"Present Listening"

revs@miraclesone.org (Revs. Paul & Deb Phelps) — Wed, 27 Feb 2008 10:06:01 -0500

Recorded February 27th, 2008 What does it mean to be truly present? What does it mean to listen? Am I doing both? Neither? Are there secret agendas that I hold? Time to watch our minds and see where we really are in relation to this topic. Deb and Paul share how "Present Listening" is vital to all of our relationships from those with others, ourselves and most importantly with Holy Spirit.

revs@miraclesone.org (Revs. Paul & Deb Phelps) — Wed, 20 Feb 2008 10:05:27 -0500

Recorded February 20th, 2008 Deb and Paul share the deep desire that we hold for acceptance by God.

"Blind Crucifixion"

revs@miraclesone.org (Revs. Paul & Deb Phelps) — Wed, 13 Feb 2008 10:04:55 -0500

Recorded February 13th, 2008 Within each and every one of us there is a vision of light to behold and experience. It is the vision of our Christ selves. It is the Miracle Jesus talks about in A Course in Miracles. Learning how to perceive the light is one of the goals of the Workbook for Students. Unfortunately, there is a system of thought that our minds have joined with that puts forth a lot of effort in preventing us from ever finding this light within ourselves. It is the ego thought system. This evening we are going to take a look at the clever habits the ego thought system has taught us throughout our lives that prevent us from finding our salvation, peace and joy. We are going to remember what it takes to counter act this problem, and practice the true art of remembering God.

Recorded January 16, 2008 Okay, so we have gotten pretty good at developing the habit of asking Holy Spirit for guidance in our everyday lives. A situation comes up, we step back, spend some time asking Holy Spirit for guidance, we receive and follow the guidance, then all of a sudden "Buyer's Remorse" kicks in. We bought into the guidance of the Holy Spirit and now we regret it! We are supposed to feel happy and okay, but instead, we feel afraid, uncertain and want to take it all back! Now what do we do?! What the heck is going on?! "Holy Spirit, Help!" Join with Paul and Deb as they share and laugh about recent real life examples of our own "Buyer's Remorse" experiences and how we handled them through Practical Application of A Course in Miracles.
