Conversations On Course with Jon Mundy, Ph.D.

April 23, 2026

Recording from the April 23, 2026 Webinar

What Does It Mean to Be Truly Helpful?
“Conversations On Course” with Jon Mundy, Ph.D.

Seminario web disponible en español: próximamente

“I am here only to be truly helpful.” (ACIM, T-2.V-A.18:2)

A beautiful line. Also slightly confusing… if you’ve ever tried to actually be helpful. (There’s a fine line between helpful and codependent!)

Because most of us learned that “helpful” looks like: figuring it out, fixing it fast, and saying something brilliant right on cue. And then the Course quietly leans in and says …or not.

When Jon Mundy was first introduced to the Course in 1975 by Helen Schucman, this prayer wasn’t a performance metric.

It was a gentle undoing. And still is.
Less figuring. Less managing. Less “let me handle this.”
More listening.

As Jon puts it: “You don’t have to figure it out. You just have to be willing to listen.”

In this Conversations on Course dialogue, Jack Rome and Jon Mundy explore what that actually looks like in everyday life. Along the way, Jon shares stories from the early days of the Course, when all of this was brand new, slightly confusing, and somehow already working anyway.

Join us to explore:
✨ Helping: from effort to allowance
✨ Fixing vs. listening
✨ The blessing of a well-timed pause

This conversation is for anyone who has ever said the wrong thing, felt the reaction rise, or tried to outthink a moment that clearly had other plans.

The Course offers a radical alternative:

  • You don’t need the right answer.
  • You don’t need to solve the moment.
  • You just need a little willingness… and maybe one honest breath.

Because when the mind gets quiet, helpfulness stops being something you do, and becomes something that quietly does you.
(Which, frankly, is a lot less work.)

 

NOTE: The Foundation for Inner Peace does not endorse any individual interpretation of A Course in Miracles. We aim to provide a space for open discussion and exploration of its teachings.

The feature originally aired on April 23, 2026.
