05.28.23 "A Town Crier for Miracles"

In times gone by (and still today at Renaissance Fairs) towns and villages employed a “Town Crier” to get important messages out to the populace. Usually depicted elaborately dressed in red formal wear, ringing a big brass bell, the Town’s Crier was obviously trying to be seen and heard. The Crier’s important messages needed to get out to as many people as possible, as quickly as possible. He definitely was NOT hiding. I believe we ACIM people have a very important message to get out to people too. "Hear yee! Hear yee! It has been declared by our Lord and Divine Creator, that we are now freed from every manifestation of guilt – including sickness and death itself! Be not afraid!” “Fear is not justified in any form.” (OrEd.WkBk.240)

At this time in history our message is critical as humanity seems at an inflection point. However, many still feel insecure putting out our message boldly. Borrowing ideas from 12-Step programs I hear that ACIM should spread by "attraction rather than promotion.” However I find nothing in the discipline itself to support this. I see ACIM calling us to be busy teachers, ministers, and active workers in the “Great Crusade” bringing Jesus’ words to the multitudes. "As God sent me to you, so will I send you to others." (OrEd.Tx.8.28) We are also told, "It needs your voice." (OrEd.WkBk.SpTh301:5) I think we are supposed to be yelling these truths from the rooftops, not hiding them under a bushel. The immediate future of our entire society may be depending on it. 30 min.
