YOUR COMMENTS ON THE PRACTICAL APPLICATION SERIES 30 DAY PROGRAMS:
I
just wanted to send
my thanks and
gratitude for
the Application
Series that we've
been taking part in.
I really can feel
the guidance and
instruction from
Holy Spirit through
the first 3 days
that I've completed.
I've been hearing a
continuing theme as
well that seems to
connect each reading
with the previous
one...it just
continues to
astonish me how well
Spirit knows me and
how perfect a
teacher He is.

I'm
having an inspiring
time.....still
re-reading, many
times over, the
first 7 lessons. I
love it!
I'm
loving the insights
and see more and
more every time I
read it.
So
I'm being led to go
slowly and even to
repeat..... It will
be good to hear the
other's report
tonight.

Great class...I
really love your
materials, format
and focus! I really
think you have
captured the essence
of what this is all
about both in the
study materials and
the way the courses
are run, etc...at
least that is my
experience. I also
really liked
everyone on the
phone, it seemed
more intimate.
Thanks again for all
the work you put
into this!

I have been studying the Course diligently for the last 4 years. Doing the
Practical Application Series, is deepening not only my understanding of the
Course but really applying it to my life on a daily basis. This 30 Day
Program is helping me to see how practical the Course itself is.
Creating
with Spirit the daily Practical Application card is giving me a focal point
for moment to moment reflection throughout the day. Many times it has
brought me back to peace during the day. It doesn't mean my days are perfect
but it does help how I deal with situations that could cause me stress and
ulcers.
I now am able to laugh at the insanity of it all. It is really
collapsing time in regard to mind healing and serving the Atonement.
And, it teaches us that no matter what happens we can still make decisions
about the truth of Who we are.
I know that it is for me to recognize the hypocrisy
of trying to claim both the illusory world and the Real World as truth and
be willing to look at it, address it and forgive it. I can use everything to
help me to remember the Truth. I don't need to crucify myself for indulging
in the illusion but know that I can always choose once again. My goal is to
walk my talk.
Thank-you Deb and Paul for all the work you have
put into serving God's plan for awakening by helping the Sonship wake up. I
could hardly wait to work on all of them.

"Wow!" is all I can say about your programs. First, I
want to tell you how real the two of you are. When you speak, you don't
preach and speak from a superior position. You are here in the trenches with
the rest of us as equals. And, not only that, you are honest and you
make mistakes, just like the rest of us!
Secondly, in relation to the program. I am so happy
that I got this. It has helped me to connect with my Inner Source. Others in
my group try to tell me their opinion of what to think about certain pages
in the Course but I knew that what I was getting was right for me. This
program helped to affirm that for me. It is an individualized curriculum
with Holy Spirit and He talks to me the way I need to be communicated to, in
words that I understand.
Thanks for encouraging Course students to go within
and not seek outside for all the answers. There is so much information out
there, but it is "in here" where I will receive it all. You guys are awesome
and I am so grateful!

Just alone with Day 1, I felt the reconnect with Inner Self allowing
myself to be guided and be refreshed. The more that I do this, the more it
helps me to grow and to receive messages. My desire is to be in more regular
communication with Holy Spirit, to remember to think about watching my mind
and asking for His help. I know that I am just making baby steps but just
with the steps that I have made I know that I am traveling far.
~A. R.
I am having a tremendous amount of growth after one week as I have dealt
with pain and loss. I have needed to accept what is and my choice has been
for gratitude for all the gifts of healing that have come my way. Now I want
to have more time for prayer and meditation, I relish the conscious contact
with God.
~P. A.
Working this program is helping me to slow down. I have been so busy with
my work most of the time that I forget to take that precious time for Self.
When I do it makes all the difference in the world. Connecting with others
as I have in the group study with this material has brought me additional
insights that I would not have had on my own. It is in the sharing process
that I reap the benefits as well.
~S. H.
I have been dealing with various difficulties in the world. Even though I
know what the Course tells me, that this world is an illusion and
all, I still experience myself here in this body with all these situations
going on around me. Working the practice and remembering to actually apply
the ideas to all that is swirling around me really does help. Anyone can
talk about concepts, but it really is shown when the rubber meets the road.
It is in this stirring of the pot, the rising of those undesirable thoughts
that I in turn hand over to Holy Spirit that I then find the healing and
peace. As Rev. Deb says, "Holy Spirit works with us wherever we are." That
comforts me greatly. I don't have to hurry up or rush my way through the
process I can simply just be gentle with myself and I like that.

Appreciation
and
Gratitude:
"What is
Possible
when two
people
Commit and
Dedicate
their Life
and Purpose
to being
Teachers of
God?
Rev. Deb & Rev. Paul have done exactly that, and the Result is
ONEderful, Truly. Note how We Are One when Holy Spirit Sees Through Us and
We Teach & Demonstrate It Always.
The Content of Love that is Expressed through their Teachings comes
through and touches all who are Blessed to hear and know them. Their
Teachings Shine wherever they go, and Holy Spirit's Plan for them is a
Blessing for Us All, as they demonstrate in everything they do and Teach, in
A Spirit-Led Life, Only Love Is Real."

"As
I sit and
listen to
them teach,
I share
thanks and
gratitude
for them
creating a
wonderful
space to
soak in all
the peace,
light and
love.
I notice the way they move so well together where one stops the
other picks right up, the oneness of it all, the fluid movement of their
teachings without any boundaries or separations. Thank you both."
