It's the Holy Week, and it's Good Friday. In this opening session, David and Frances emphasized the importance of focusing on the correction and not the error. They discuss a prayer they wrote, expressing humility and a desire to receive guidance from a higher power, reflecting on passages from A Course in Miracles and the theme of seeing everyone as one with Christ. Next, they use analogies such as a caged pet bird and the sleeping Son of God to describe the profound amnesia we all have and the world's perception as a belief in death caused by the ego.

How to Have It All Handled by Inspiration - Movie Workshop with David HoffmeisterDavid discusses the importance of the Holy Week, the week from Palm Sunday to Easter, as it serves as a beam of light that pierces through humanity's fog of ignorance and separation, helping everyone realize their divine nature.

Trusting in inspiration means letting go of fear and false responsibility and living moment by moment based on what feels most inspiring.

How's that for a theme? If you go into this theme, you will have less interest in world events because you're not so interested in what's coming next. Your question is not how will it end, but how do I feel right now? That's a more practical question. Jesus likes being practical. How do I feel now? That is beautiful. He's saying let go of your past learning. Just stay with me, step by step. I got you. He called me, and He answered, "Yes, I do. I have got you. And I will guide you step by step.

Finding Out There Is No World - Online Movie Workshop with David HoffmeisterThis week's movie is the ultimate forgiveness movie and will take viewers symbolically toward the light.

Love is far beyond the awareness of this world and requires forgiveness. David speaks about the concept of being born again in spirit, which involves being fully present and giving up the belief in the horizontal plane.

"Pray, Listen & Follow" Online Weekend Retreat - Closing Session with David Hoffmeister and Frances XuIn this session, David and Frances discuss and answer questions on the retreat theme of learning to pray, listen, and follow. They express their gratitude for the attendees' heartfelt questions and interactions. They also discuss the movie shown during the event, which they see as a metaphor for stepping into one's calling and following God's voice. The conversation then turns to the original four people who brought A Course in Miracles into being. When they finished scribing the Course, they didn't know what to do with it. The four prayed together and heard the guidance to "commit first." They didn't have preconceived ideas of the outcome, which allowed them to receive unexpected guidance that led to a lifelong collaboration. David quotes a passage from the Course that suggests that every decision is for the whole sonship and can influence a larger constellation of events.Enjoy this Closing Session from the monthly Heart of Christ online retreat with the theme "Pray, Listen & Follow" - Three Steps That Will Take Care of Everything.

Trust that Jesus Will Carry Me - Pray, Listen & Follow Online Retreat - Movie Workshop with David HoffmeisterOh, What a beautiful Retreat Weekend. We are going deep into the topic of prayer. Let's call it our new lifestyle of PRAY, LISTEN, and FOLLOW. In the past, we were trying to be educated and learn about the world. Learn how to analyze, compare, and do things based on past learning so we can survive as a person and a body and, hopefully, grow old and eventually die.Work hard, grow old, get sick, and die. But, hmm. Maybe there's more than that. Maybe there's more. Perhaps, we had it all wrong. Maybe we were in a fantasy land trying to make the best of this world. You know, try to be a decent person and then try to make it into old age and then yeah, and then succumb to death like everyone else. Maybe we had it wrong. Maybe there's a higher calling for us than such trivial pursuits.
