Into the Kingdom Retreat, Day 4: "Next" Movie Talk by David

David continues his movie talks from the Into the Kingdom retreat with a spectacular quantum movie called "Next" (2007). “Holland is going bye bye” is David's opening remark as he invites everyone in the audience to go much deeper than they ever have during this week-long retreat! David shares that when we perceive the world through the ego perspective, we get tricked. Everything we perceive and believe is upside down and backward. In the end, it takes us to the recognition that we have only one issue, a time issue. Jesus explains that dealing with a world of hypotheticals and potentials takes us into time and that we have to get to the holy instant where there is no time—where means and end are the same.This session was recorded during the Into the Kingdom retreat in the evening of October 10, 2019, at the Castle De Berckt in Holland.To learn more about upcoming events with David Hoffmeister and the Living Miracles community, go to https://livingmiracles.org/eventsFollow us on:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/DavidHoffmeister Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ACIM.ACourseInMiracles Learn more about David & Living Miracles: https://livingmiraclescenter.orgLearn more about A Course in Miracles: https://ACIM.bizDavid's Spanish Youtube Channel is: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP9Gw00CldPUmiu43y7fdWw

Into the Kingdom Retreat, Day 3: "Rocketman" Movie Talk by David

In this session from the evening of day three of the Into the Kingdom retreat, David gives a talk on the movie "Rocketman" (2019) which gives us a glimpse into the life of Elton John and dramatically displays the ups and downs of international stardom and his own call for love. David also explains why he started many years ago to use movies for healing the mind. Jesus had guided him to be attentive to his feelings when he was watching movies. The mind's awareness expands when you consciously decide to look at it and become more and more detached from all the thoughts and beliefs that are occupying it. Enjoy this beautiful commentary and watch the movie "Rocketman" (2019) afterwards. David highly recommends it. This session was recorded during the Into the Kingdom retreat in the evening of October 9, 2019, at the Castle De Berckt in Holland.To learn more about upcoming events with David Hoffmeister and the Living Miracles community, go to https://livingmiracles.org/eventsFollow us on:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/DavidHoffmeister Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ACIM.ACourseInMiracles Learn more about David & Living Miracles: https://livingmiraclescenter.orgLearn more about A Course in Miracles: https://ACIM.bizDavid's Spanish Youtube Channel is: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP9Gw00CldPUmiu43y7fdWw

Into the Kingdom Retreat, Day 2: "Yesterday" Movie Talk by David

In this session from the evening of day two of the Into the Kingdom retreat, David gives a talk on the movie "Yesterday" (2019). The main character in the movie experiences a calling to which he has some doubt and resistance, but miracles can't be performed where there is fear or doubt. Miracles require your willingness. You can't prevent God from shining on you, but the ego can temporarily prevent God from shining through you. You don't have to be perfect to receive miracles, but you do need to reach an open state of mind where you can still your mind and come into alignment with God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit and say, "Here I am, Lord. I'm ready."Enjoy this beautiful commentary and see the movie "Yesterday" afterwards. It is very recommendable.This session was recorded during the Into the Kingdom retreat in the evening of October 8, 2019, at the Castle De Berckt in Holland.To learn more about upcoming events with David Hoffmeister and the Living Miracles community, go to https://livingmiracles.org/eventsFollow us on:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/DavidHoffmeister Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ACIM.ACourseInMiracles Learn more about David & Living Miracles: https://livingmiraclescenter.orgLearn more about A Course in Miracles: https://ACIM.bizDavid's Spanish Youtube Channel is: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP9Gw00CldPUmiu43y7fdWw

Living from the heart of Love is always Empowering

Living is Giving, and this aligns with the Law of Love. How better to demonstrate ‘I am still as God created me’ than to know I am under no laws but God’s. I am empowered by miracles, which Light the way in a darkened world. I do not create myself, for God is my Source and Creator. As an innocent Child of God, I am not at the mercy of the world. The world is not outside my mind, and I can elect to change all thoughts that hurt. The world is nothing more than a reflection of my mind. Today I would think only the thoughts of Love that come from God.Follow us on:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/DavidHoffmeister Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ACIM.ACourseInMiracles Learn more about David & Living Miracles: https://livingmiraclescenter.orgLearn more about A Course in Miracles: https://ACIM.bizDavid's Spanish Youtube Channel is: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP9Gw00CldPUmiu43y7fdWw

The Dreamer of the dream Perspective IS Forgiveness

You are the dreamer of the world of dreams. 2 No other cause it has, nor ever will. 3 Nothing more fearful than an idle dream has terrified God's Son, and made him think that he has lost his innocence, denied his Father, and made war upon himself. 4 So fearful is the dream, so seeming real, he could not waken to reality without the sweat of terror and a scream of mortal fear, unless a gentler dream preceded his awaking, and allowed his calmer mind to welcome, not to fear, the Voice that calls with love to waken him; a gentler dream, in which his suffering was healed and where his brother was his friend. 5 God willed he waken gently and with joy, and gave him means to waken without fear. Chapter 27 - The Healing of the Dream. Section VII.Follow us on:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/DavidHoffmeister Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ACIM.ACourseInMiracles Learn more about David & Living Miracles: https://livingmiraclescenter.orgLearn more about A Course in Miracles: https://ACIM.bizDavid's Spanish Youtube Channel is: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP9Gw00CldPUmiu43y7fdWw
