The modern spiritual teaching and path, A Course in Miracles, contains hundreds of reference to the Bible, and both the New Testament and the Course claim to present Jesus' teachings. There is an obvious and important relationship between the Course and the Bible, and how the two relate is a natural question. Seeing the Bible Differently answers the question. Drawing on the Course's attitude toward the Bible, this book recognizes both the many similarities between the two and also the significant differences. Watson presents a picture, emphasizing the continuity of God's message in the two books, while seeing the Course as a later, clearer presentation of truth, superceding the Bible in some ways while standing clearly in its lineage. The idea of progressive revelation that Watson presents will help the reader evaluate the teachings of the Bible, enrich their understanding of the Course with knowledge of the Bible, and integrate the truths they find in the Bible into their understanding of the Course.

The subject of judgment is often confusing for students of spirituality. It seems necessary in this complex world of difficult decisions and seeming danger. A Course in Miracles, however, teaches that judgment is the source of all our pain, loneliness, and despair, and that letting go of it will bring freedom and happiness beyond belief. Perry and Watson present a survey of teachings about judgment in the Course, such as: what it is, giving it up, is it always inappropriate, the right use of judgment, and how we can make decisions without judging. Based on a popular weekend workshop, this book is filled with insights and practical information about judgment and useful techniques for letting go of it. Topics also include:* What is judgment? * The effects of judging* Differences as a basis for judgment* Judging others and their motives* Seeing without judgment* The right use of judgment* The Last Judgment and God's Judgment

A Course in Miracles teaches that the whole spiritual journey is a journey home, home to God whom we have never really left. Allen Watson describes this spiritual journey, as seen in the Course, identifying the stages we pass through as we move from fear to love, escaping from darkness and emerging into the light. Watson presents a map that we can look at as we set out, giving us an idea of the spiritual destination the Course is taking us to, and what we must go through to get there. This map helps us be aware of and prepared for the pitfalls and detours that occur along the way. The Journey Home also offers Course guidelines and instructions for dealing with some of the difficult passages on this journey. It ends with a chapter encouraging us to travel with joy on this marvelous journey which is worthy of our every effort and deserving of all our confidence.

The Journey Home

A Course in Miracles has emerged within our lifetime as an authoritative spiritual text. Yet what does it really say? In the Course's brief history, two comprehensive visions have been offered, each by respected teachers and organizations, each based on many years of personal dedication and scholarly investigation. One vision comes from Ken Wapnick and the Foundation for A Course in Miracles. The other comes from Robert Perry and his colleagues at the Circle of Atonement. One might assume that these visions would differ only in the details; yet in fact they diverge dramatically, leading to different ways of approaching, understanding, and living the Course. These differences have naturally led to confusion for Course students. The purpose of this book is to clear up that confusion. It addresses how the two visions relate to each other, delineating both their similarities and their differences. It then goes on to explore the key differences, and how they impact the Course student's life.
