SUMMARY:Explore A Course in Miracles Through the Lens of Jesus Christ and Scripture
DESCRIPTION:A Course in Miracles Study Groups\nExplore A Course in Miracles Through the Lens of Jesus Christ and Scripture\nHave you been curious about A Course in Miracles but weren’t sure where to begin? Perhaps you’ve wondered how it relates to the teachings of Jesus or whether it can be studied from a Christ-centered perspective. \nAt the Christian Meditation Center\, we believe it can. \nOur weekly A Course in Miracles study groups explore the Course through the lens of Jesus Christ and the witness of Scripture. Together\, we thoughtfully discuss its teachings while allowing the Bible to remain our primary authority and the Holy Spirit to guide our understanding. \nOur focus is not simply on studying a book. Our desire is to deepen our relationship with Christ\, renew our minds\, and learn to live more fully into the peace He has already accomplished for us. \nIf you’d like to learn more about our Christ-centered approach to studying A Course in Miracles\, I invite you to read this reflection: \nIt Is Finished: Living into the Peace Christ Has Already Accomplished \nWhether you are completely new to A Course in Miracles or have been reading it for years\, you are welcome here. \nJoin at Any Time\nYou do not need to wait for a new session to begin. \nOur study groups are intentionally designed so that new participants can join at any time. Each week’s discussion stands on its own while building upon the larger journey through the Course. Current participants are always happy to welcome newcomers\, and you’ll quickly feel at home. \nIf you’re new\, we’ll gladly help you get oriented and answer any questions you may have. \nWeekly Online Studies\nTuesday Evenings\n7:30 – 8:30 p.m. ET \nWednesday Evenings\n7:00 – 8:00 p.m. ET \nBoth groups meet weekly on Zoom\, and you are welcome to attend whichever evening works best for your schedule. \nOur Hope\nOne of the beautiful themes we have found in A Course in Miracles is its repeated invitation to choose peace and to recognize the thoughts that keep us from experiencing it. When read prayerfully and discerned through Scripture\, these conversations encourage us to abide more deeply in Christ and become increasingly aware of His presence\, His grace\, and His peace. \nWe invite you to explore with us in a welcoming community where questions are encouraged\, conversations are thoughtful\, and our shared desire is to know and follow Jesus more faithfully. \nInterested in joining us? We’d love to hear from you. Simply contact us for the Zoom information and we’ll help you get connected. \nRegister today! \nRegistration Form \n\n\n  \n\n\n\n Your name\n \n \n Your email\n \n \n Telephone\n \n \n Event Name\n \n \n\n\n Δ
