A Course in Miracles
Text Study Group
with the Complete and Annotated Edition
Since its original publication in 1977, the depth and complexity of A Course in Miracles has both helped and puzzled millions of people around the world. There is no question that the Course is difficult for our minds to grasp. A single paragraph can contain multiple terms used in unconventional ways and reference numerous different themes. It can sometimes feel like entering into a maze. Despite this, the Course continues to grow in popularity each year and has become widely regarded as a spiritual masterpiece.
Watch this short video to find out what's different about A Course in Miracles the Complete and Annotated Edition.
The Complete and Annotated Edition (CE) of the Course, published by the Circle of Atonement in 2017, has done much to address issues around the difficult language, cross referencing, and the desire for real-life examples. It has restored 45,000 words from the original notes of Course scribe Helen Schucman, and includes more than 30 explanatory essays, plus hundreds of footnotes. Most of the restored words are in the Text (Volume I), which many agree has made it seem more relatable and thereby more understandable. Yet it is still complex, and open to misinterpretation. For this reason, many students report that studying the Course in a group setting has been essential to their understanding of the message it is conveying and its application to their lives.
Join me as we study the Text (Volume I) in a Study Group setting
Are you ready to understand the message of the Course and how to apply it to your life? I will be leading a study group through the Text (Volume I) using the Complete and Annotated Edition of A Course in Miracles. It is important to note that other versions will be significantly different when studying the Text. This will be an 18-month journey for those who want to study this transformational Text in order to truly understand what it is saying and how it applies to them.
Each week we will cover a different section of the Text, looking at key themes and their implications. Over the course of our time together, we will seek to uncover the true message of A Course in Miracles by remaining faithful to what is written on the page.
It is expected that you read the relevant sections of the CE prior to each session. As an additional resource I suggest you consider joining the Course Companions Online Learning Community but it is not required for this group.
You can get the hardback CE on Amazon.com or from the Circle of Atonement. The Kindle format is available from Amazon.com.*

What is the Suggested Contribution for?
Essentially it helps to offset costs. It is not a requirement for joining this study group so please don't let this be a barrier if the Course is calling you. The philosophy of the Course is clear, "One rule should always be observed: No one should be turned away because he cannot pay. No one is sent by accident to anyone. Relationships are always purposeful." (P-3.III.6:1-3)
Though I had known about ACIM for many years I had not done an in-depth study because I found it difficult to read. I was intrigued with this new version and decided to give it a try. Reading the Cameo essays at the back of the CE brought to life the teachings in the Course and it all came together when I discovered the Course Companions Online Learning Community. It was with this community where I began studying with a group on a weekly basis in 2017 and I felt that my journey with the Course was restarted. Needless to say that when the Circle of Atonement offered training in being a study group leader I was in and I am now a Certified Study Group Leader.
