What if “the Last Judgment” isn’t a cosmic trial but the clearest act of love your mind can make? We take a grounded, ACIM‑based tour through one of spirituality’s most misunderstood ideas and uncover a liberating frame: God does not judge, and judgment itself is a temporary tool we repurpose to sort illusion from truth. When we keep only what is real—what is created in love—we end the ego’s loop of self‑evaluation an...
Ever notice how a tiny flicker of defensiveness can take over a whole room? We start with a simple family Bible study and follow that thread into the heart of spiritual practice: dropping the need to be right, relaxing the body, and letting forgiveness do what debate can’t. From there, we unpack projection with clear, grounded examples—approval seeking with a parent, the urge to “save” someone at our own expense, even...
What if fear isn’t an enemy to defeat, but a gentle signal that you’re believing in separation again?
In this episode, we explore A Course in Miracles’ teaching on the Mastery of Love—and why fear doesn’t need to be conquered, only unbelieved. Together we walk a practice that’s simple, tender, and immediately usable:
feel the sensation, stop feeding the story, and let willingness lead.
Readiness becomes the mind’s ...
What If Nothing You See Is Causing Your Suffering?
This episode begins with a radical invitation: What if the world isn’t doing anything to you? Not illness, not aging, not politics, not your relationships—nothing. Instead, what if every emotional charge is an echo of rejected feeling returning to be received and released?
From this starting point, we walk a living path of transformation:
- Feel before you think—let se...
The outer world keeps changing—new cities, new housemates, even a pile of clutter beside your pillow—and yet peace remains available in every breath. In this Wisdom Dialogues episode, we step into a Sedona season of daily practice and non-dual exploration, where spiritual concepts are tested in real-life scenarios: sleeping next to a messy workspace, navigating old food beliefs, feeling heartbreak ripple through the n...
The End of Minus — Mastering Love in A Course in Miracles
What if “lack” is just bad math… and love has no minus sign?
In this episode, we dive deep into The Mastery of Love as presented in A Course in Miracles and expose the unconscious arithmetic that keeps us counting losses, tracking decline, and budgeting our worth.
Using the striking example of negative numbers, we reveal how the ego’s logic is expertly desig...
From Compromise to Wholeness — The Gift of Time
What if the split you feel isn’t between two real forces, but between reality and a clever nothing?
In this talk, we dive into A Course in Miracles to show how “nothing and everything” cannot coexist—and why choosing love over fear is less a ritual than a present-moment decision that collapses delay.
Instead of fixing yourself, we explore how to transfer faith from ego stor...
💫 What if peace doesn’t depend on liking your life? 💫
What if peace doesn’t require you to like your circumstances, your job, or even your partner’s habits? In this candid and luminous session, Hope invites you into a radically simple practice: accept your inner state—dislike, fear, longing—without flinching, and let that honesty transform perception from the inside out.
From the now-legendary “beans” story to relatio...
✨ The Mastery of Love: When Fear No Longer Needs to Be Mastered ✨
What if peace isn’t earned by controlling fear—but revealed by remembering love? 💫
In this deep dive into A Course in Miracles’ section “The Mastery of Love,” we begin with a radical pivot: you did not create yourself. From that one reframe, the entire egoic structure of “fixing” and “managing” collapses. Magic falls away, and miracles become natural exp...
🏕 Cold Campsite, Matted Mane, and Miracles in Motion
A cold campsite, a matted mane, and a mind full of one-liners—perfect conditions to practice what we say we believe.
We open with a simple invitation: stop waiting for perfect feelings before choosing peace. Instead, learn how to notice thoughts as they parade by, let your nervous system relax, and choose union—right in the middle of anger, dread, or a very stubborn ...
💫 From Bedlam to the Miracle Level 💫
Ever notice how that inner punisher speaks with such authority—yet leaves you small, tense, and afraid? In this Deep Dive, we unpack why that “voice of truth” isn’t you at all.
Through the lens of A Course in Miracles, we revisit Freud’s id–ego–superego model and flip the hierarchy: the deepest layer of mind isn’t animal instinct or chaos—it’s the miracle level—the quiet, unwaverin...
What if you’re not inching toward awakening… but already awake? 🌞
Every messy scene is just a mirror asking for love.
We dive into:
✨ The mechanics of projection
✨ The instant where cause returns to the mind
✨ The freedom that comes when defenselessness replaces control
From family drama with “the drunk uncle” to the heat around sex, food, and parenting—
we explore how to meet triggers without ...
What if the root of all psychological suffering isn’t where your energy flows, but what you believe about yourself?
In this profound deep dive into A Course in Miracles Chapter 2, Hope Johnson unpacks Jesus’s radical correction of Freudian psychology, showing how humanity has misunderstood the mind for centuries.
✨ Instead of endlessly managing psychic energy through therapy, sublimation, or control, Jesus offers a stun...

Have you ever felt caught in a mental deadlock, trying to reconcile your spiritual nature with worldly fears? In this illuminating episode of ACIM Deep Dive, we explore the profound concept of how the mind creates conflict by attempting to hold both truth and illusion simultaneously.

What if you discovered that true forgiveness isn't about pardoning yourself for miscreating, but recognizing you never had the power to miscreate in the first place? This revelation forms the cornerstone of our exploration into what A Course in Miracles calls "miracles that collapse time."
During this raw, unfiltered conversation, we dive deep into the subtle yet profound difference between cir...
Have you ever considered that your fears might be completely unjustified—not because the situations aren't challenging, but because fear itself has no foundation in truth? This profound session explores Lesson 240 from A Course in Miracles, which boldly states: "Fear is not justified in any form."
We begin by examining a simple yet powerful litmus test for identifying fear in our lives: does th...
