He applies the non-dual teachings of A Course in Miracles to experience a consistently peaceful state of mind and shares the purity of this message that points directly to the Source.

He is a highly respected teacher of A Course in Miracles and has published numerous books that explain its metaphysical teachings in an accessible manner. His #1 bestseller, Quantum Forgiveness: Physics, Meet Jesus, catapults the reader into a true and transcendent experience of forgiveness.

David's own spiritual journey began with a fascination in many pathways leading to a deep commitment to practical application of the teachings of A Course in Miracles. As his understanding deepened, he became increasingly guided to follow Jesus' instructions to "become as a child," and to depend on the Holy Spirit for all his needs including money, food, shelter and transportation. This required him to totally surrender and allow the Holy Spirit to be his guide in every moment of each day. In this way he learned to trust that God would provide for all of his needs through the countless miracles that occurred in his life.

As he gave up all his own needs and desires to become a pure channel of love for everyone, he found himself unable to maintain his own health, but instead relied on the miraculous healing power of God. This included surviving cancer as well as having a near-death experience in which he saw his own death and resurrection. His experiences were confirmed by the numerous physical and emotional healings he witnessed in others.

Following his healing Christian mystic david hoffmeister experiences, David became more compelled to share his clear understanding of A Course in Miracles with students throughout the United States and abroad. He began to hold regular workshops at kitchen tables where he shared his insights and the wisdom he had gained.

It was at this time that he also started to find that Jesus, who had become his internal teacher, began speaking through him as a clear stream of thoughts. It was a remarkable experience for him as it clearly demonstrated that he had moved beyond just studying ACIM, to a place where the teachings were fully integrated into his whole life.

The mystical aspect of Christianity found its fullest expression in the writings of Paul and John, as well as in the life of Jesus. Mysticism was the desire to know Jesus, not just as a man after the flesh, but as the resurrected Spirit. This was the only hope for salvation.

In our own times, the mystic impulse has gained renewed interest from many different perspectives, especially with the rise of hermeneutical and deconstructionist philosophies in the 20th century. Some scholars seek to identify a common core of mysticism, while others argue that experience and interpretation cannot be so easily separated, and that mysticism is in most cases tied to specific religions and contingent upon their teachings.
