Questions and Answers

What does Unity believe?

The easiest way to describe Unity is to say that it is practical Christianity, a way of life.

Unity's five basic truths are as follows:

God is absolute good, everywhere present.

Human beings have a spark of divinity within them, the Christ spirit within. Their very essence is of God and therefore they are inherently good also.

Human beings create their experiences by the activity of their thinking. Everything in the manifest realm has its beginning in thought.

Prayer is creative thinking that heightens the connection with God-mind and therefore brings forth wisdom, healing, prosperity, and everything good.

Knowing and understanding the laws of life, also called Truth, are not enough. A person must also live the Truth that he or she knows.
