Les mer The Bible and A Course In Miracles

This podcast explores the intersection of the Holy Bible and A Course in Miracles. One of ACIM’s central claims is that the world is a dream and the body an illusion, which appears to contradict the Bible’s teaching that God created the heavens and the earth and humanity in His image (Genesis 1:1; 1:27). But does this mean Christians and spiritual seekers cannot glean wisdom from ACIM? I don’t think so. The purpose here is not to offer pat answers or to debate, but to discern. We seek the correlations between the Holy Bible and ACIM, asking the Holy Spirit to guide us into truth and show us what may be gleaned from both (John 16:13). As a Christian mystic who believes in the physical death and bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 15:3–4), I approach both texts through an incarnational lens—one that honors the material, physical world as God’s good creation (John 1:14). The Bible speaks deeply about physical creation and humanity’s role in the restoration of all things in Christ (Romans 8:19–21; Colossians 1:19–20). ACIM speaks to the reality of living in Christ and seeing the world in light of the Reality revealed in Him. This podcast exists to discern how these two streams can meaningfully coexist. I believe God can speak through voices outside of the Scriptures (Acts 17:22–28), and that Christ, who is risen and present with us always, continues to speak across many streams of thought (Matthew 28:20; Revelation 1:17–18). He may even use Helen Schucman to reveal something vital about grace and forgiveness for the good of the world. This is a space for honest, open theological conversation—for those willing to wrestle with ideas, trust the Holy Spirit’s guidance, and move beyond black-and-white thinking. I do not come with all the answers. I come asking questions, seeking discernment, and inviting dialogue. The goal is not certainty, but wonder; not rigidity, but faithfulness. Together, we explore how ACIM can be engaged in a way that honors the incarnation, the resurrection, and the goodness of God’s created world, trusting the Holy Spirit to lead us into all truth.

episode Is Separation from God Real? The Bible, A Course in Miracles, and Our True Identity in Christ cover

Is Separation from God Real? The Bible, A Course in Miracles, and Our True Identity in Christ

Are we truly separate from God—or is separation only an illusion? In this episode of The Bible and A Course in Miracles, we explore one of the most challenging and transformative questions shared by Christian theology and A Course in Miracles: the nature of separation, identity, and oneness in Christ. Drawing from A Course in Miracles, Chapter 9, alongside Scripture—including John 14, Matthew 25, Acts 17, Colossians 3, and 1 John 4—this episode offers a Christian mystical reading of ACIM through the lens of the incarnation, the body of Christ, and the gospel’s declaration that “Christ is all and in all.” Rather than denying Jesus’ divinity, this conversation centers on Christ as the revelation of both God and humanity, showing how Jesus fully reveals who God is and who we truly are. The episode challenges fear-based religion, the myth of separation, and Western evangelical assumptions, while affirming the goodness of creation, the unity of humanity, and the reality of our shared sonship in Christ. This is not a debate—but an invitation to discernment, renewal of mind, and awakening to our true identity as beloved children of God.

episode Is A Course in Miracles Compatible With Christianity? A Christian Mystical Dialogue With the Bible cover

Is A Course in Miracles Compatible With Christianity? A Christian Mystical Dialogue With the Bible

Is A Course in Miracles compatible with Christianity—or does it contradict the Holy Bible? In this episode of The Bible & A Course in Miracles, I offer a Christian mystical perspective on ACIM, engaging the very questions many believers are asking: Is ACIM heretical? Can Christians learn from it? Does it align with biblical teaching? Rather than throwing the baby out with the bathwater, this episode explores how both Scripture and ACIM can point us to Jesus Christ when read through the guidance of the Holy Spirit. We wrestle honestly with difficult claims—such as “God did not create the body” or “the world is a dream”—and consider how these ideas may function as metaphors rather than literal denials of God’s good creation. Drawing from Genesis, the Gospels, Paul’s letters, and A Course in Miracles, this conversation affirms the physical death and bodily resurrection of Jesus while exploring themes of awakening, identity, perception, and divine goodness. This is not a call to theological certainty, but to discernment—trusting that Christ, who is risen and present with us, continues to speak and lead us into all truth. For Christians, spiritual seekers, and anyone curious about the dialogue between Christianity and ACIM, this episode offers a thoughtful, Christ-centered invitation into wonder, humility, and deeper faith.

episode Adam’s Fall, Awakening, and the End of the World: ACIM, the Bible, and Eschatology cover

Adam’s Fall, Awakening, and the End of the World: ACIM, the Bible, and Eschatology

In this episode of The Bible & A Course in Miracles, we explore how ACIM and Scripture interpret the Fall, the “deep sleep” of Adam, and humanity’s ongoing dreamlike state. Drawing from A Course in Miracles and the Bible, this teaching reframes eschatology not as destruction, but awakening. We examine how believing the “lies of the serpent” led to miscreation, projection, and fear—and how, in the twinkling of an eye, perception can be healed. Through passages from Genesis, Romans 8, Colossians 3, and John 17, we explore the idea that creation itself is groaning for the revealing of the sons and daughters of God. This episode invites listeners to consider awakening as the true end of the world: a return to Reality, identity, and union with God through the Holy Spirit—where heaven and earth are no longer separate, and Christ is all and in all.

episode The Resurrection and the Life: Awakening to Our True Identity in the Bible and A Course in Miracles cover

The Resurrection and the Life: Awakening to Our True Identity in the Bible and A Course in Miracles

What does it mean when Jesus says, “I am the resurrection and the life”? In this episode of The Bible & A Course in Miracles, we explore how both the Holy Bible and A Course in Miracles speak to resurrection not merely as a future event, but as a present reality—an awakening to who we truly are in God. Drawing from ACIM’s teaching that heaven and earth are not separate states, and the Bible's proclamation that the Kingdom of God is at hand, this episode reframes resurrection as a renewal of perception and identity. We reflect on Jesus’ words, Paul’s teaching on transformation “in the twinkling of an eye,” and ACIM’s reminder that we are the work of God—wholly loving and wholly lovable. This conversation invites listeners to reconsider separation, fear, and false images of God, and to awaken to the truth that we are children of God, created in His image, living in His presence now. If you’re exploring Christian spirituality and mysticism, ACIM, resurrection theology, or the renewal of the mind, this episode offers a Christ-centered, hope-filled perspective of eternal life.
