Movie "Evan Almighty" To remember God is to follow His guidance with David Hoffmeister - Renovatio Residential Movie Retreat.
Join David Hoffmeister on this first-day residential movie retreat in Utah! This intimate, in-person retreat is for those who desire to go deeper with the teachings of A Course in Miracles, using movies as the primary tool.
Through prayer, David is “Given,” the perfect movie from the Holy Spirit that best meets our present healing needs and themes. Today's movie is Evan Almighty which is a follow-up to Bruce Almighty.
A Course in Miracles is not really a Course as much as it is unlearning and undoing. So, it's very much like traditional spirituality, which is emptying your mind and everything you think, you think, and think, you know. It's everything that Buddha and Lao Tzu talked about, and all Mystics and Saints agreed, yet it's called A Course in Miracles. So it gives you the lead-in or illusion that you're going to learn something. But this book doesn't lend itself to learning in the traditional way. Because learning is about adding and accumulating things and progressively building things, the course is the complete opposite of that.
So it will use concepts that are stepping stones, but when you go deeper and deeper in, you can see that these were just like little rungs on the ladder that you were supposed to step on for a while and embrace and then push off to have to go higher on the ladder. When you take a boat across the river, you don't necessarily carry the boat on your back when you get to the other side of the river. It's just a vehicle as part of the transformation, and that's really what teaching and learning are. It's just a conversion of your consciousness.
