​A Course in Miracles is a path of spiritual development that takes the form of an educational course consisting of a Text, a Workbook for Students, and a Manual for Teachers.

​The aim of the Course is to lead you on a transformational journey of “removing the blocks to the awareness of love’s presence, which is your natural inheritance.” (CE-In.1:7) The Course does this through a combination of study, practice (applying Course concepts in your life), and extension (extending what you’ve learned into how you relate with others.)

​My simple explanation for the Course is that it is my guide for teaching me how to live in the world, while at the same time understanding that I am not of the world.

On your spiritual journey, it’s important for you to walk the path that feels right for you. That may or may not be A Course In Miracles. There are many paths that can lead us into deeper spiritual insight and experience of God. Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have. I am always willing to set up a time to have a conversation with you and help you explore if this is the path for you.

ACIM has been my main spiritual path since 2018 (although I first began studying it in 2007.) I became a Circle of Atonement certified study group leader in 2020, and have been deeply involved with Course-based prayer and meditation since 2021. I am currently exploring the path of being a Course-based teacher and healer. 
My journey with A Course In Miracles...

My journey with A Course In Miracles began in 2007. I immediately connected to the teachings and the approach of this path of spiritual development. Although I continued to explore and practice other spiritual paths in the beginning, the Course has been my main spiritual path since being introduced to the Complete and Annotated Edition (CE) in 2018.

In my commitment to this path and how it supports me in extending love into the world, I became certified as a study group leader for the Text of the CE, so that I may be able to support others as well.

The Complete and Annotated Edition of A Course In Miracles
​
​Since its original publication in 1977, the depth and complexity of A Course in Miracles has both helped and puzzled millions of people around the world. There is no question that the Course is difficult for our minds to grasp. A single paragraph can contain multiple terms used in unconventional ways and reference numerous different themes. It can sometimes feel like entering into a maze. Despite this, the Course continues to grow in popularity each year and has become widely regarded as a spiritual masterpiece.
​
The Complete and Annotated Edition (CE) of the Course, published by the Circle of Atonement in 2017, has done much to address issues around the difficult language, cross referencing, and the desire for real-life examples. It has restored 45,000 words from the original notes of Course scribe Helen Schucman, and includes more than 30 explanatory essays, plus hundreds of footnotes. Most of the restored words are in the Text (Volume I), which many agree has made it seem more relatable and thereby more understandable. Yet it is still complex, and open to misinterpretation. For this reason, many students report that studying the Course in a group setting has been essential to their understanding of the message it is conveying and its application to their lives.
