2003 STUDY GUIDE Except the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the Lord keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain. - Psalm 127:1 The trustees of the Valor Foundation have chosen the Infinite Way Letters of 1971, Living by the Word, for the 2003 Study Guide. This is the first of the new eleven book series made up of The 1971-1981 Infinite Way Letters, prepared and edited by Lorraine Sinkler, from Joel S. Goldsmith's tape recorded classwork. They are fine-quality soft cover books which include Scriptural References and Notes, as well as a listing of the tape recorded classes corresponding to each chapter of the book. In this way students can work with the cassettes along with each monthly letter. The Valor Website also provides suggestions for using Lorraine’s class work with each month’s study. "There is a Center within each one of us in which is complete harmony, complete spiritual rest and peace, a complete Sabbath from this world." We attain the center within that the world may know peace. "We meditate only that we may be still and let this glory escape, so that all men may feel the divine Presence and Power that is at the center of our being and which we have realized." (The March, 1971 Letter) When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. - Isaiah 43:2 JANUARY "Living by the Word" Living by the Word, Chapter 1 The 1980 Palm Beach Class Tape 4; Side 1; Catalog No. 8004 - Overcoming the World FEBRUARY "Spiritual Discernment of the Bible" Living by the Word, Chapter 2 The 1970 Miami Butterfly Class Tape 2; Side 2; Catalog No. 7002 - A New Heaven and a New Earth MARCH "Let There Be Light" Living by the Word, Chapter 3 The 1975 Palm Beach Class Tape 4; Side 2; Catalog No. 7504 - Let the Light Shine APRIL "Easter: An Experience of Consciousness" Living by the Word, Chapter 4 The 1981 Pasadena Closed Class Tape 2; Side 1; Catalog No. 8110 - What the Spiritual Path Means MAY "Transforming the Unillumined Human Mind" Living by the Word, Chapter 5 The 1981 Palm Beach Closed Class Tape 2; Side 2; Catalog No. 8102 - How Truth Becomes Realized Consciousness JUNE "The Nonattachment of a Developed Spiritual Consciousness" Living by the Word, Chapter 6 The 1976 Palm Beach Class Tape 2; Side 2; Catalog No. 7602 - Rising Above "This World" JULY "Except the Lord Build the House" Living by the Word, Chapter 7 The 1978 Palm Beach Class Tape 2; Side 1; Catalog No. 7816 - Realizing God's Government of the Day AUGUST "Scripture As a Way of Life" Living by the Word, Chapter 8 The 1979 Palm Beach Class Tape 4; Side 1; Catalog No. 7907 - The Nature of a Spiritual Message SEPTEMBER "I Have" Living by the Word, Chapter 9 The 1981 Pasadena Closed Class Tape 1; Side 1; Catalog No. 8109 - Opening the Windows of Heaven OCTOBER "Let the Tares and the Wheat Grow Together" Living by the Word, Chapter 10 The 1982 Chicago Closed Class Tape 4; Side 1; Catalog No. 8204 - Establishing a Consciousness of Oneness NOVEMBER "Sowing and Reaping" Living by the Word, Chapter 11 The 1980 Palm Beach Class Tape 2; Side 1; Catalog No. 8002 - Surmounting Karmic Law DECEMBER "The Message of the Bible" Living by the Word, Chapter 12 The 1970 Miami Beach Class Tape 1; Side 1; Catalog No. 7001 - Becoming Consciously Aware of the Source Copyright © 2002 - 2004.
