In this sermon, Emily Perry explores the idea of spiritual community through the lens of A Course in Miracles. Drawing parallels with Dietrich Bonhoeffer's Life Together, Emily covers key teachings on spiritual love versus human love, emphasizing the importance of seeing each other as divine rather than idealized, and the role of service in fostering true community. Through practical examples from Bonhoeffer's "ministries," such as the Ministry of Listening and the Ministry of Bearing, this sermon encourages us to commit to a life of love, forgiveness, and mutual support, embodying the vision of a beloved community.
