Jesus’ Earliest Advice on How to Live A Course in Miracles (Exploring ACIM podcast)

In this episode, we're returning to the very beginning of A Course in Miracles—to the earliest days of the dictation, when Jesus was first speaking to Helen Schucman and Bill Thetford. The night before Helen heard the words, “This is a course in miracles. Please take notes,” and in the weeks immediately afterward, Jesus offered direct guidance about how this Course was meant to be lived. He spoke not in abstractions, but in practical terms—describing how to approach this path, what attitude to take, and how to live it, long before the Course had fully taken shape. 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. 🌟 Want to live the Course with us in 2026?
