Join Reverend Jacquelyn Eckert on Sunday August 21st at 7:30pm ET for our monthly Satsang with Brent A. Haskell, Ph.D., D.O.

Brent is the author of Journey Beyond Words and The Other Voice: A Companion to the Text of The Course Chapters 1-15 (Miracles Studies Book).   He taught A Course in Miracles for many years.  In 1990 he began hearing a Voice that identified itself as Jeshua. He received teachings, books and articles from Jeshua.

Books by Brent Haskell:

Journey Beyond Words: A Companion for the Workbook of The Course (1994)

It was received, all in auditory form, during the year 1990 by one who had for five years humbly and openly submitted himself to the transformational wisdom of the Course. The real author of Journey Beyond Words refers to himself as Jeshua — and as the author of A Course In Miracles.

The material covered herein brings a new and refreshing simplicity to many of the seemingly difficult concepts of the Course, and will be extremely helpful to all students, advanced or novice, as well as to study groups, especially those lacking a facilitator who is well versed in the Course.

Most of all, Journey Beyond Words is the Jeshua-endowed guide to the study and application of the Course at the level of one’s innermost sanctuary, where, in the presence of Truth, no guide or companion is needed. For none is higher or closer.

The reader who enters these pages with a quiet and open mind will find himself transported to a new world of peace, freedom, and joy. For this is the world of A Course In Miracles.

The Other Voice: A Companion to the Text of The Course Chapters 1-15 (1998)

The Other Voice was given as a companion to A Course In Miracles. As with the previous book, Journey Beyond Words, which has touched and changed thousands of lives around the world, this volume was received all in auditory form from a source who identified himself as Jeshua — and as the author of A Course In Miracles.

This new material further clarifies and simplifies the teachings of the Course, many of which have remained difficult for students, advanced or novice, to understand and apply. But perhaps more importantly, herein can be found insights that will take the reader to new and exciting levels in the experience of the truth of the Course.

Most of all, The Other Voice is designed to bring us ever closer to the constant awareness of our innermost guide. For it is in hearing and following its voice that we discover the meaning we seek. But beyond that, it is in learning to truly listen and follow that voice that we avail ourselves of a peace that the world is helpless to destroy.

Whoever enters these pages will encounter profound yet remarkably practical teachings that offer themselves as a vehicle to an unshakable inner peace.

Brent Haskell will be a presenter at our Awakening Together Fall Retreat in October 2016 in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

Kirsten Buxton – Living Miracles Monastery

Kirsten Buxton is a modern-day mystic, spiritual teacher, and author who became devoted to awakening after a revelatory experience of such intense love she realized nothing else mattered.

In 2004 she was guided into a devotional practice of A Course In Miracles. Shortly after this she met mystic David Hoffmeister and joined him in living a life in service to Christ.

Kirsten is a founding member of the Living Miracles spiritual community; A Course In Miracles based community devoted to peace of mind and forgiveness. She loves sharing and shining about the fruits of mind training and purpose-based life through her gatherings, songs, and movie events.

This Sunday she will be sharing about her devotional life with ACIM, and an inspiring ‘fun-raising’ event that is being held at the Living Miracles Monastery in July next year. It is in honor of ‘our elders’ and their life’s work to bring ACIM into the world, and a celebration of our deep gratitude and love for ACIM. All proceeds will go towards the Foundation for Inner Peace.
