ACIM for Activists
by Mike Rivage-Seul
This podcast will reinterpret "A Course in Miracles" for seekers and activists committed to co-creating a more just world with room for everyone. Each episode will first of all review one of the 365 lessons found in the "Course in Miracles" workbook; it will then reinterpret the lesson from the viewpoint of the historical Jesus whose voice The Course claims as its own; finally we’ll discuss how the insights uncovered might relate to an issue of the day such as voting rights, the refugee crisis, endless wars, or police brutality. Occasionally, I’ll invite guests as well.

Episode 17, ACIM Lesson 10: "I See Nothing As It Is Now"
According to A Course in Miracles, no one is our enemy. No one is attacking us. There is really only one of us here. The Chinese, for instance (as I argue here) are our sisters and brothers. There is no distinction between them and us.

My Quarrel with Richard Rohr
Though I truly admire Richard Rohr as a great spiritual teacher, I find misleading his deemphasis of the historical Jesus in favor of the universal christ. (This is a test publication of my first podcast.)
