The Gratitude ACIM Calls Us To (Sunday Gathering Sermon)

Exploring A Course in Miracles

In this sermon, Emily Perry explores A Course in Miracles' radically different vision of gratitude—not as a reaction to circumstances or a comparison of blessings, but as a way of seeing grounded in the unchanging gifts God has already given us. Drawing on Lesson 195 and the powerful list of promises in Lesson 123, Emily examines why our usual forms of gratitude are so fragile, and how a deeper, steadier gratitude arises when we recognize our true identity, God's constant love, the Holy Spirit's guidance, and the shared holiness of everyone we meet. This message is an invitation to let gratitude become a way of being and ultimately a "song of thanks" that transforms how we see ourselves and the world.
