***There Is No Sin

Most of us don't use the word "sin" very much; it has a rather distasteful ring to it. But the concept, I believe, is deeply embedded in our psyches. What is sin? I am not versed in theological treatments of it, but I think I have a good grasp of the popular concept, the one lodged in our ...

***Does God Have A Plan?

Does God have a specific plan for us, something in particular He wants us to do with our lives? Normally, I would address this question by discussing passages from A Course in Miracles (there are many that answer this question quite explicitly; see, for instance, W-pI.135.18). In this ...

***Leaving the Slate Blank

Have you ever noticed how uncomfortable we are with empty spaces? We ache for leisure time, but then we anxiously fill it with a busy itinerary. We keep ourselves frantic with responsibilities, as if a moment alone with ourselves is a frightening prospect. Even when we do flop down in the chair ...

***Seeing No Strangers

How do we respond to strangers? We usually maintain our reserve. We might be polite even while we remain unconce ed. And we are probably at least a little afraid. Behind this person’s face might lurk a sick mind, even a criminal mind. Who knows what would happen if we let this person into ...

***Being Truly Helpful

How to be helpful to another is something we all wrestle with. When someone I care about is in need I find myself struggling to locate the right words, and I worry that I will bungle things. In short, I become filled with self-concern. It does not take a genius to see that being caught up in ...

***Gentleness Is Strength

We all love to be on the receiving end of gentleness. It feels wonderful to be treated gently. Yet, on the giving end, we wonder if being gentle can get the job done. We live in a world resistant to change, even change for its own good. If we are going to make a positive difference, surely at ...

***The Path To True Self-Esteem

Is it not remarkable how our feelings about ourselves can rise and fall with such rapidity? When we do something really useful or say something really intelligent, we can feel great about ourselves. Yet a moment later we can feel like an idiot, as we do or say something else. Clearly, we see ...

***Does God Ask Us to Make Sacrifices?

I personally believe that God gives us jobs to do in the world. In essence, these jobs amount to helping others on their jou ey to total freedom. The outer form of these functions may look quite mundane. They may look like parenting a child, or running a small non-profit organization, or even ...

***Patience

We all know that we are supposed to be patient, yet we are usually ambivalent about it. Patience means waiting calmly, without complaint, for something that we hope will occur. Waiting patiently often feels like reining in wild horses. We would like to step in and force that desired outcome. ...

***Open-Mindedness

Being open-minded is something most of us value. We may hold our point of view, but we probably realize that being open to other points of view is good. It improves our chances of arriving at the real truth. After all, out of all the people and all the views out there, what are the odds of our ...

***When Someone is Angry With You

We all know how it feels to have someone angry with us. If that person is close to us, it can turn our world upside down. At that point we usually apply any one of a number of strategies. We might go on the offensive, or the defensive, or withdraw and avoid confrontation, or appease the person ...

***Who Are the Blind?

We rely so much on our eyes. Seeing is believing, the old saying goes. But what exactly do our eyes show us? If you think about it, all they see is form—shapes in motion. Yet what we really want to discover is what things mean. We want to know if something is good or bad. We want to know ...
