Who We Are

Unity is a positive, practical, progressive approach to Christianity based on the teachings of Jesus and the power of prayer. Unity honors the universal truths in all religions and respects each individual's right to choose a spiritual path.

The Nature of Humankind

We are each individual, eternal expressions of God. Our essential nature is divine and therefore inherently good. Our purpose is to express our divine potential as realized and demonstrated by Jesus and other master teachers. The more we awaken to our divine nature, the more fully God expresses in and through our lives.

Our Teachings

Heaven is not a place, but a state of consciousness; we create our own heaven and hell here and now.

We all have an innate capacity to know God through direct experience.

The “Christ” is that part of God that is in every person. There is a spark of divinity within all people, just as there was in Jesus.

Prayer works.

We are here to set a positive example and be a role model for others.

We are here to make the world a better place.

Affirmative prayer is the highest form of creative thought. It includes the release of counterproductive, negative thoughts, as well as holding in mind statements of spiritual truth. Through meditation, we experience the presence of God. Prayer and meditation heighten our awareness and thereby transform our lives.
