Robert Rosenthal, MD

Robert Rosenthal, MD, is copresident of the Foundation for Inner Peace, the authorized publisher of A Course in Miracles. He was introduced to the Course in 1975 at the age of twenty by Judy Skutch Whitson and became a close friend and protégé of its coscribe, Bill Thetford. His first book, From Plagues to Miracles: The Transformational Journey of Exodus, From the Slavery of Ego to the Promised Land of Spirit, reinterprets the biblical story of Moses and Pharaoh as a parable of the spiritual journey: the mind's struggle to escape ego and identify once again with Spirit, guided by miracles. He has written many articles on different aspects of the Course and is a popular speaker at Course-related events and online forums.
