Who Deserves the Title of Expert on A Course in Miracles?

There is a point where you study something and you start to become it. I'm not claiming to be an expert on A Course in Miracles. I would even say, there's maybe only one besides Jesus himself. The only person that deserves the title of the expert of A Course in Miracles is Kenneth Wapnick. He was humble.

He lived it. He was the editor, one of the editors and he was part of the process of it. When Helen was receiving it, he was part of the process of getting the material together. He was there in prayer with them to come up with the subtitles and the chapter titles. I mean, it was an inspired process. He's one of the few there.

A couple others passed away. Why am I naming him? A couple others passed away. One just sort of stepped out of the role of participating in it. Left Kenneth Wapnick. But he was part of it spiritually. He had past life connections with Helen. He had past life connections with Jesus. He had deep devotionalism.

This was a deep process for the guy. He wasn't an editor in his head,. He was a participant in a very deep process, a meant-to-be process. But if you watch YouTube talks, he's not... "I am channeling the spirit of A Course in Miracles," trying to woo woo you. He's not analyzing this page and that word and how many times.

He's telling you what it means. People ask questions. "Excuse me, Kenneth... The course talks about guilt and the role it plays on keeping us stuck in the illusion. Can you talk about that?" He talks about it perfectly. I've never seen videos of his, or the ones I've seen on YouTube or seeing his books now and again and said, "Oh, nothing there.

" It's deep, very deep. But one of the reasons is, he was there in the trenches creating the course. He knows it better than anybody, forward and backward, but he's a psychologist as well, and because the book is themed in spiritual psychology, he understands it. Now, that's very important, because when I first came to the course, I was looking at it spiritually, and I had really not a lot of respect for some of the other institutions in the world, like Psychology, because it's a little dry and so forth.

But Jesus decided psychology plays a part, so I had to acquiesce and say, Oh, Jesus thinks it has a place... then let me just open my mind and add that piece.
