"Joined in Purpose" retreat - New Zealand February 2026 with David Hoffmeister

https://programs.the-christ.net/courses/the-way-of-the-mysticIn this profound session that closes the weekend, David addresses deep inquiries from participants, grounding high-level metaphysical principles into practical, everyday application, while making references to the central theme of the weekend as explored in the previous Friday, Saturday and Sunday sessions: by shifting the focus of all our relationships from getting to giving, we move from the heavy constraints of the past into the light of the present moment, collapse the illusion of linear time and rediscover the "timeless being" that remains untouched by the world’s "maze". In response to questions about personal lack, David shares that giving is the mechanism for receiving, and he uses the example of sharing prison letters to illustrate how extending love to those in seemingly "confined" situations actually enables the giver to find freedom from their own mind cells, favoring an experience of connection and miraculous release. Other questions address the topic of how to navigate life’s script when circumstances appear challenging, with references to the context of one’s job or even in dealing with worldly institutions and regulations. David also underlines the importance and the beauty of living a prayerful and guided life, emphasizing that guidance is not a tool for the ego to use to improve its personal circumstances or secure specific outcomes in form, but a trusting surrender of the personality self to the Voice for God of the Holy Spirit.These gatherings take place every weekend in February and March 2026 and include teachings, films, music, panel discussions, and live Q&A sessions with David Hoffmeister.Register for the Way of the Mystic weekend gatherings for free here: https://programs.the-christ.net/courses/the-way-of-the-mysticIf you want to learn more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, visit https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/eventsRecorded Sunday,  February 22, 2026 (English with Spanish live translation)Follow us on:YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/DavidHoffmeister https://www.youtube.com/@LivingMiraclesFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/ACIM.ACourseInMiracles Learn more about David & Living Miracles:https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/eventsLearn more about A Course in Miracles:https://ACIM.bizDavid's Spanish YouTube Channel is: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP9Gw00CldPUmiu43y7fdWwDavid's Portuguese YouTube Channel is:https://www.youtube.com/@davidhoffmeisterucem

https://programs.the-christ.net/courses/the-way-of-the-mysticDuring The Way of the Mystic Weekend titled  “Stepping Out of the Maze of Time through Giving”, in the Saturday Movie Session, David uses a mini-movie to explore the mental traps of the past and the liberating realization that we can never truly "fix" what never happened. Using the metaphor of a man traveling back into the 1960s to prevent a tragedy, David provides a deep commentary on how the ego uses "do-overs" to keep us tethered to linear time.The discussion illuminates how the past is a relentless force that resists change, yet it shows that the only way to truly escape the maze of "what if" is through the present-moment practice of giving and forgiveness. As David navigates through this gripping story of a time-traveling English teacher, we are invited to see that attempting to alter the dream only tightens its grip, while accepting the Holy Spirit’s interpretation of the present sets us free.These gatherings take place every weekend in February and March 2026 and include teachings, films, music, panel discussions, and live Q&A sessions with David Hoffmeister.Register for the Way of the Mystic for free here: https://programs.the-christ.net/courses/the-way-of-the-mysticIf you want to learn more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, visit https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Recording Date: Online, Saturday, February 21, 2026Follow us on:YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/DavidHoffmeister https://www.youtube.com/@LivingMiraclesFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/ACIM.ACourseInMiracles Learn more about David & Living Miracles:https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/eventsLearn more about A Course in Miracles:https://ACIM.bizDavid's Spanish YouTube Channel is: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP9Gw00CldPUmiu43y7fdWwDavid's Portuguese YouTube Channel is:https://www.youtube.com/@davidhoffmeisterucem

https://www.the-christ.net/blog/the-way-of-the-mysticIn this final Q&A session of "The Way of the Mystic" online weekend revival, David Hoffmeister illuminates the path from fear and separation to the profound peace of the Holy Spirit. David explores how the mind often finds itself trapped in an "attraction to guilt," seeking happiness in shifting human forms that inevitably lead to suffering and a sense of lack. He emphasizes that the world we perceive is merely a projection of internal conflict and that all apparent sickness—physical or emotional—is a mental confusion of levels.The session focuses on the transformative realization that purpose is the only choice. While the ego presents a fragmented script filled with limited outcomes and personal preferences, the Holy Spirit offers a single, unifying purpose: the awakening of the mind. Drawing metaphors from a cinematic journey through an apocalyptic wasteland, David illustrates how we can use the very images the ego made for isolation as opportunities for holy encounters and divine connection. By surrendering the need to control the "form" of our lives and instead committing to the Spirit’s purpose, we transcend the belief in sacrifice and step into the abundance of the present moment.These gatherings take place every weekend in February and March 2026 and include teachings, films, music, panel discussions, and live Q&A sessions with David Hoffmeister.Register for the Way of the Mystic for free here: https://programs.the-christ.net/courses/the-way-of-the-mysticIf you want to learn more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, visit https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Recorded February 15, 2026Follow us on:YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/DavidHoffmeister https://www.youtube.com/@LivingMiraclesFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/ACIM.ACourseInMiracles Learn more about David & Living Miracles:https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/eventsLearn more about A Course in Miracles:https://ACIM.bizDavid's Spanish YouTube Channel is: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP9Gw00CldPUmiu43y7fdWwDavid's Portuguese YouTube Channel is:https://www.youtube.com/@davidhoffmeisterucem

https://www.the-christ.net/blog/the-way-of-the-mysticIn this deep and humorous 'The Way of the Mystic' session from February 14, 2026, David Hoffmeister explores the ego's intricate web of "special relationships" through a comedic lens. Using the metaphor of a high school transformation and the awkward quest for romantic validation, the discussion dismantles the hierarchy of love that the world teaches.Key Themes of the Session:The Illusion of Specialness: David examines how the ego uses categories like "best friend," "partner," and the dreaded "friend zone" to maintain a sense of separation and lack.Humor as a Healing Tool: The session highlights the necessity of laughter in undoing the ego's seriousness, reminding us that we simply "forgot to laugh" at the tiny, mad idea of being separate from God.From Scarcity to Abundance: By looking at our desperate attempts to find love in form, we begin to recognize our inherent worthiness and the consistent, unconditional love of the Christ within."God did not create bodies, and the problem of judgment is the belief that bodies are real. On Valentine's Day, we celebrate the release from these concepts into the pure light of Agapé love."These gatherings take place every weekend in February and March 2026 and include teachings, films, music, panel discussions, and live Q&A sessions with David Hoffmeister.Register for the Way of the Mystic for free here: https://programs.the-christ.net/courses/the-way-of-the-mysticIf you want to learn more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, visit https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.https://umcursoemmilagres.netRecorded February 14, 2026Follow us on:YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/DavidHoffmeister https://www.youtube.com/@LivingMiraclesFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/ACIM.ACourseInMiracles Learn more about David & Living Miracles:https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/eventsLearn more about A Course in Miracles:https://ACIM.bizDavid's Spanish YouTube Channel is: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP9Gw00CldPUmiu43y7fdWwDavid's Portuguese YouTube Channel is:https://www.youtube.com/@davidhoffmeisterucem

https://www.the-christ.net/blog/the-way-of-the-mysticIn this "Mission Accomplished" Saturday morning movie session, David Hoffmeister uses a mini-movie to illuminate a radical spiritual breakthrough: the realization that our innocence is already complete. The narrative, condensed from multiple action films, serves as a powerful metaphor for the ego's complex plots and the Holy Spirit’s swift undoing of them. David focuses on two pivotal metaphysical themes:The Illusion of Time and Control: Drawing on A Course in Miracles Lesson 158, David explains that "time is a trick, a sleight of hand." He emphasizes that the ego uses the past and future to distract us from the Holy Instant, where our safety lies. By letting go of the need to control the "script" of our lives, we discover that the mission of salvation is already accomplished through the Atonement.Transcending the Ego’s Distractions: The session explores how the mind is often fooled into believing it is a separate, physical entity at the mercy of external circumstances. David invites us to "peer behind the curtain" and see that all conflict—whether a nuclear threat on screen or a personal grievance—is merely a projection of a split mind.Through his commentary, David guides listeners to hear the gentle whisper of Jesus saying, "Mission Accomplished," allowing us to surrender our worries and judgments in favor of the happiness that is our natural inheritance.These gatherings take place every weekend in February and March 2026 and include teachings, films, music, panel discussions, and live Q&A sessions with David Hoffmeister.Register for the Way of the Mystic for free here: https://programs.the-christ.net/courses/the-way-of-the-mysticIf you want to learn more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, visit https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Recorded February 7, 2026Follow us on:YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/DavidHoffmeister https://www.youtube.com/@LivingMiraclesFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/ACIM.ACourseInMiracles Learn more about David & Living Miracles:https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/eventsLearn more about A Course in Miracles:https://ACIM.bizDavid's Spanish YouTube Channel is: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP9Gw00CldPUmiu43y7fdWwDavid's Portuguese YouTube Channel is:https://www.youtube.com/@davidhoffmeisterucem

https://www.the-christ.net/blog/the-way-of-the-mysticThis opening session of "The Way of the Mystic" 2026 Weekend Online Revival, featuring David Hoffmeister, Marina Colombo, and Urpi Milla, sets a profound tone for a journey of spiritual awakening.The session introduces the weekend's central theme: Healing is a collaborative endeavour.David Hoffmeister begins by redefining collaboration through the lens of A Course in Miracles, suggesting that although it appears we collaborate with one another in the "world of form," we are truly learning to collaborate with Jesus and the Holy Spirit. He emphasizes that this entire world was built on a foundation of ego-based hatred; therefore, a shift in purpose is required to allow forgiveness to replace our personal interpretations. This spiritual collaboration is not a solo journey but a "collaborative venture" in healing.The participants share personal insights and "miracles" that illustrate the power of following divine prompts rather than ego-based plans. The session concludes with an invitation to join in a shared prayer for innocence, moving beyond past memories of "right and wrong" to embrace the "isness" of God's love.Discover the Way of the Mystic Weekend Revivals.

Join David Hoffmeister in this live pre-movie session as he prepares students for a screening of the futuristic thriller Mercy, which they will watch afterward at the local cinema.Set in a world where an AI judicial system delivers life-or-death verdicts in a matter of minutes, the film serves as a visceral metaphor for the ego’s "courtroom" of the mind.David uses the story of Detective Chris Raven—a man judged by the very system he helped create—to illustrate the A Course in Miracles concept of "reversing cause and effect." By exploring the high "guilt percentile" assigned by the AI judge, David shows us how we have authored our own dream of judgment and how the world we see is a projection of an internal belief in separation.This session dives deep into the ego's "categorizing mechanism" and the futility of seeking evidence to prove our innocence in a dream. Instead, David points the way toward the "Holy Instant," where the desire for truth overrides the data of the past. As we prepare to watch Chris Raven’s race against time, we are invited to look past the "matrix" of formal education and societal rules to find the shimmering, translucent reality of our true Spirit.Recorded live as a movie preparation session, this talk is an invitation to stop being a victim of external forces and start recognizing the power of the mind to choose a different vision.For more information about movie gatherings, David Hoffmeister, and Living Miracles events, visit https://www.the-christ.net/eventsRecorded January 25, 2026 in Casa Quantico, Chapala, MexicoFollow us on:YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/DavidHoffmeister https://www.youtube.com/@LivingMiraclesFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/ACIM.ACourseInMiracles Learn more about David & Living Miracles:https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/eventsLearn more about A Course in Miracles:https://ACIM.bizDavid's Spanish YouTube Channel is: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP9Gw00CldPUmiu43y7fdWwDavid's Portuguese YouTube Channel is:https://www.youtube.com/@davidhoffmeisterucem

In this special bilingual movie gathering, David Hoffmeister presents a powerful compilation of episodes to illustrate the transition from a world of separation to a world of Oneness.The story depicts a spiritual awakening reaching the planet, shifting the collective consciousness so that 8.4 billion people suddenly share one mind and one purpose. Wars, competition, and scarcity disappear, revealing a world of peace. Yet, a small group of people—representing the ego—resists this change, clinging to their individual identities and grievances.David focuses on the main character to demonstrate how the ego reacts to the threat of peace. Even with the world healed, she remains upset, proving the A Course in Miracles lesson: "I am never upset for the reason I think." Through the metaphor of a lost purse, David explores themes of loss, pride, and the resistance to joining. He reminds us that we cannot bring truth to our illusions; we must bring our illusions to the truth.Ultimately, this session is a call to give our full consent to the Holy Spirit. We are asked to stop protecting our private thoughts and specialness and to realize that "unified needs lead to unified action."Enjoy David's profound commentary with German translation.If you want to know more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, here is more information: https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.Recorded online on January 24, 2026.Follow us on:YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/DavidHoffmeister https://www.youtube.com/@LivingMiraclesFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/ACIM.ACourseInMiracles Learn more about David & Living Miracles:https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/eventsLearn more about A Course in Miracles:https://ACIM.bizDavid's Spanish YouTube Channel is: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP9Gw00CldPUmiu43y7fdWwDavid's Portuguese YouTube Channel is:https://www.youtube.com/@davidhoffmeisterucem
