Unity means many things to many people, and it is possible
to think of it in many different ways.
Unity has constantly emphasized a new approach to religion,
a universal approach that does not require obedience to a
creed or acceptance of a dogma, but crosses all religious
lines to help people of all faiths and even of none, to
find Truth for themselves and to apply it to live better, more
meaningful, more helpful lives. It leaves people free to
practice their religion at whatever level they have come up to.
Charles Fillmore never called his organization a church, and
for the first fifty or sixty years of Unity's existence,
every Unity group, no matter how churchlike it became, called
itself a society or a center or a school or any other term
than church.
Unity is more teaching than a creed and more an attitude than
a teaching. Each of us must find God and the way of Truth and
life for oneself and in oneself.
Unity stands for unity your unity within yourself. Your unity
with your fellow human beings. Your unity with God.
I love Unity because it set me free to state the Truth in my
words and in my way.
It is time for Christianity that will help people to look into
their hearts and find that they are sons and daughters of God
and that they can live as if they are.
Unity. The universal church of the liberated individual - not
a set of beliefs anyone is required to accept, but a set of
directions anyone may follow to become the perfect person
Life made them to be.
