Jesus's First Instructions on How to Live A Course in Miracles

In this conversation about Jesus's First Instructions on How to Live A Course in Miracles, Robert and Emily go back to the earliest days of the dictation of A Course in Miracles, when Jesus was first speaking to Helen Schucman and laying out—right from the start—how this Course was meant to be lived. The night before Helen heard the words, "This is a course in miracles. Please take notes," and in the weeks immediately afterward, Jesus gave direct guidance. He described what to do, how to approach this path, and how to live it—before the Course even fully took shape.

In this episode you'll hear:

• What Jesus said to Helen and Bill in the earliest dictation

• How those instructions frame the entire Course

• Why the beginning matters for how the Course is lived today

If you've ever wondered whether there's something essential in the way the Course was introduced—something that still matters for students now—this conversation is for you.
