Customer Reviews

Thank you, Lucia

The experience of A Course In Miracles (ACIM) just gets opened wider and wider with wonderful expressions of Love like Martha Lucia Espinosa! Thank you for taking the time to write this exceptional jewel! Allowing Holy Spirit to undo the blocks to love's presence is a 24-7 Forgiveness Exercise, and we need all the help we can get! Lucia was kind enough to simply follow the advise of Gary Renard, author of Disappearance of the Universe (DU), to pick out the ACIM quotes -- all 365 of them -- that appeared in DU. I started it...and then Lucia's book appeared. Now all I have to do is use those little gems along the way. Not only is the book delightful, but the story of Lucia's own spiritual journey is wondefully written and now I feel there's another friend on the journey. We're all in this together. A joyful journey it is thanks to books and authors like this! Read it. You will be be glad!

hats off to Martha (Lucia) for stepping up to the plate

During the last decade, author Gary R. Renard was visited in the flesh by two ascended masters who instructed him to write a book. Over the course of nine years he eventually did write his book, The Disappearance of the Universe (DU), based on his Guided study of the metaphysical masterpiece, A Course in Miracles (ACIM). Not long after DU was first published, a fellow student claimed it had such a "profound impact" on his understanding of A Course in Miracles, that he started a message board on Yahoo!® Groups in April 2003, just so he could discuss and "hear other people's impressions" of Gary's book. That October a new member joined the group, Martha Lucia Espinosa. By Jan 2004, Martha, or Lucia, as she prefers to be called, was selected to co-moderate the this rapidly expanding DU discussion group. Today, besides being a moderator to that group, (now almost 5,000 members), at the request of many of Gary's readers she has finally authored the companion book to DU that we've all been waiting for, Spoken Miracles. Spoken Miracles is a brilliant little gem containing in concise format all of the quotations from ACIM that are found in The Disappearance of the Universe. During the nine years of on-going discussion Gary had with Arten and Pursah, 365 references were made to ACIM. Now they are beautifully recorded in order of appearance, and accurately cited for easy reference in Spoken Miracles, along with how Lucia, herself, came to be a student. I like to think of Spoken Miracles as DU minus Gary's ego, (LOL). As Gary would say, "So hats off to Martha (Lucia) for stepping up to the plate and kicking a(nother) field goal."

Inspired and Inspiring 'Companion' to Share the Journey With

"Spoken Miracles" is an inspired and inspiring 'companion' to travel with in your "journey without distance". Lucia begins the book with a brief review of her spiritual journey so far. This is a hearfelt and inspiring remembrance of people and events, both sad and joyous, that helped define her spiritual 'direction' and eventual embracement of the message in the books "A Course in Miracles" (ACIM) and "The Disappearance of the Universe" (DU). The rest of the book consists of all the quotes from ACIM that were used in DU. These are in order as they appeared in DU and are arranged by chapter with full cross-referencing to location in DU as well as ACIM (no easy task--thanks again Lucia!). As stated in DU these quotes (a truly amazing distillation of the Course) can serve as a quick refresher for ACIM as well as daily inspiration. I can indeed attest that this is true. Highly recommended!

Reviewing the Course

As a 30 year veteran of spiritual seeking, the author provided an insight of her journey in Part I. Following in Part II, she lovingly providing the rest of us all the quotes from the Course that Arten and Pursah had given during Gary's awakening. She has my gratitude.

Excellent companion to Disappearance of the Universe

As the title shows, this is a companion to Gary Renard's first book, The Disappearance of the Universe (D.U.). I would go a bit farther and say that this is a reference book to all of the A Course in Miracles (A.C.I.M.) material that appears in the pages of D.U. No doubt this compilation took a very long time to complete and cross reference. Not an easy task considering the length of A.C.I.M. and D.U. This has been accomplished in a strait forward, easy to follow manner, and provides a succint review of this material as presented in the book D.U. The author, Martha Lucia Espinosa, also provides the reader with some insight of her own personal spiritual journey. This journey has brought her to the path of A.C.I.M. and true forgiveness. It is always a delight to read anything by Ms. Espinosa. Her writing style is effortless, light, and insightful. This reader looks forward to more titles by this author.
