How to Resist Hatred Without Becoming Hateful (Sunday Gathering Sermon)

How do we stand up to hatred without becoming hateful ourselves? And how can we remain peaceful in a world that seems increasingly determined to divide us? In times of political uncertainty, fear, and division, it's natural to turn to our spiritual path for comfort. But what if our spirituality is meant to do more than help us feel better about the world? What if it's meant to help us become better for the world? In this Sunday Gathering message, Emily Perry explores three powerful teachings from A Course in Miracles that can help us navigate troubled times with greater courage, compassion, and love. Drawing on the teachings of Jesus, the wisdom of A Course in Miracles, and the example of Martin Luther King Jr., Emily explores how we can resist fear, break the cycle of attack and counterattack, and become a healing presence in the world.
