The Message of 'A Course in Miracles': All Are Called, Few Choose to Listen
The Message of 'A Course in Miracles' All Are Called Few Choose to Listen Author:Kenneth Wapnick The Message of "A Course in Miracles" is a two-part work, the purpose of which is to provide a comprehensive overview of the teachings of "A Course in Miracles," with discussion and guidelines on how to avoid some common misconceptions of these teachings. Volume One, All Are Called, could indeed carry the subtitle, "What 'A Course in Miracles' S... more »ays," while Volume Two, Few Choose to Listen, could be subtitled "What 'A Course in Miracles' Does Not Say." Thefocus of the first volume is therefore on what the Course actually teaches, while the sequel focuses on the ways in which students have misunderstood "A Course in Miracles", not only believing it is teaching something it is not, but also denying what its message truly is. The first book provides students somewhat acquainted with the teachings of "A Course in Miracles" with a summary which will help meet their needs for an in-depth presentation of the Course's principles, including a discussion of the practical implications of these principles with regard to religious and spiritual practice, and ethical, moral, and behavioral issues. The purpose of Few Choose to Listen, as stated in the Introduction is "to guide students in how to avoid certain potential mistakes or confusions as they read, study, and implement into their daily lives the teachings of "A Course in Miracles." Such sidestepping of errors will, it is hoped, be of help in clearing the way for the student to be more accessible to the Holy Spirit's 'particular care and guidance' (M-29.2:6)."« less
