The divinity of man In KEEP A TRUE LENT, Charles Fillmore, co-founder of Unity, writes: Easter is the celebration of the resurrection of Jesus. Its inner meaning and spiritual significance is the awakening and raising to spiritual consciousness of the I AM in man, which has been dead in trespass and sins […]
WATCH THIS VIDEO The people you hang around with The people you “hang around with” really make a difference in your life and as I got more involved in Unity, I came across this concept of “we become what we think about” and its Lenten corollary, “giving up error thinking.” This idea became very interesting.

Who are you? You are a divine being of incredible potential having a human experience, not a human being having a divine experience.

I feast on faith Simple beauty I walk by this retention basin every day. It’s the same big hole, the same dead grass, the same few scraggly trees. Why should I pay attention to it? And yet, on this day, and in this ONE perfect moment, and right in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic, […]
