Additional 3-Minute Course Preview
This was the best class I've taken at MU. It was a great introduction to the Essenes and gave us all the information we require for further studies. -SM
I loved that Jesus explained that "Essene" was related to "essence." So the Essene Community and all mystery schools since time immemorial were created to help us achieve that divine essence--our true nature. -CW
Great opportunity to ask and receive answers for things not always accessible thru other spiritual groups. -VC
I enjoyed hearing about Jesus and the Essene community from all the different sources--the Dead Sea scrolls, Edgar Cayce, past life regressions, etc. And I enjoyed hearing about it from Jesus himself! -JG
We are the Essene community of old and currently. I had a feeling before the class that I and other friends had been in the Essene community around the time of Jesus. Now I know it for sure, especially after I saw how widespread this was over many years and in multiple places. -CA
The resurrection compared to quantum physics. -SW
A main takeaway from the class is how Jesus learned from teachers around the world to be able to do what he did in Palestine. He was extraordinary to begin with, yet he had to study and work hard at learning the ancient teachings also. Of course his great heart of love was the key. -LH
