In our CCC class for teachers last Thursday, we talked about trust as the first and foremost characteristic of the teachers of God. That night, I had an opportunity (read: crisis) to apply this trust to my own life when I really needed it. I felt the Holy Spirit at...

All fear is past, and only love is here
I had something happen to me recently that gave me an initially chilling but ultimately humorous lesson in discerning the fine line between taking reasonable precautions to protect ourselves in this world and succumbing to the debilitating poison of fear. First, a...
All fear is past and only love is here
Lately, Patricia and I have been facing a major problem: Two of our three cats, la Kiara and Sassy, have not been getting along at all, to the point where they have literally drawn blood from each other. But thanks to a lot of prayer and a lot of love, we experienced a...
Adventures in caregiving
A few months ago, I left my former job at a nursing home and went into caregiving in people's homes. I am getting more and more work with home care clients, and in the process discovering that I love this work. It is such a wonderful opportunity to be truly helpful and...
A Healing Prayer Ministry Miracle
When Pari and I began the Healing Prayer Ministry on November 8th, we had no idea what a powerful impact it would have on our lives in such a short time. Extending to our brothers and sisters in this way has been a profoundly beautiful experience for both of us. And we...
A friend's breakthrough
One of my Course student friends shared a remarkable dream that was a real forgiveness breakthrough for her. Just hearing it was a breakthrough of sorts for me as well, for it captured so well what Course-based forgiveness is all about: looking past those illusory...

In our CCC teacher training we’ve just had a class on listening to the Holy Spirit’s guidance, so I’ve been focusing on that and trying to ask for guidance whenever it is feasible. This week, I experienced some strange events that felt like a nudge from Him, even...

"I think we have work to do together"
Patricia Zamudio and I have some wonderful news to share with our Circle family: We are engaged to be married! I’d like to tell a little bit of our story, both because it is a delightfully happy story, and because it feels like a good example of what joining in a...
A statement on the most recent violence in the United States
In the wake of a particularly tragic weekend, all of us at the Circle wish to send our love to the communities and people of El Paso, Dayton, and Chicago. We also understand that when faced with such horrific and repeated acts of violence, a common concern – a...
Highlights from the Sacred Journey of Love Webinar
Yesterday kironJ Gardner of the UK Miracle Network and I hosted a webinar on the topic of love in A Course in Miracles and I'd like to share a couple clips from that event. In the first clip, I offer one of my biggest personal lessons around being a good holy...
The symbolic value of Black Friday
We've all seen them — images of Black Friday shoppers racing into stores and fighting over merchandise. And we all probably think the same thing: How could things have gotten so mixed up? How could a celebration of peace on earth have been reduced to people fighting...
