Truth Unity

“All The Way” is a series of six talks given by Rev. Thomas E. Witherspoon that provides an overview of the Christian faith given to Unity by Charles and Myrtle Fillmore.

The six talks are segmented in 91 sound clips that allow you to pick and choose the topics of interest. Some of my favorites are:

• The 24 basic teachings of Unity as distilled by the author (clips 10-34)
• The Mystical Christ consciousness of Myrtle Fillmore (clips 35-47)
• Witherspoon’s commentary on the last chapter of Keep A True Lent, which describes how Jesus’ decision to go “All The Way” inspired the Fillmores (clips 81-91)

These recordings were made from audio cassette tapes at Unity Library and Archives. If you are blessed by hearing Witherspoon’s message, be sure to a give back to the Archives.

We've now got a series of three talks by Rev. Jack Boland on the subject of Unity and Alcoholism. Jack Boland is a well-known and much beloved Unity minister and leader of the Unity movement. He needs no introduction.

Here's why we need to hear his message:

• he will bring support and encouragement to all who struggle with chemical dependency
• his impassioned and thoughtful message will challenge others who struggle with hearing the phrase "I am an alcoholic"

Here's something lots of Unity people are going to love (at least the history buffs) ... click here and you go to a six-lecture series by Rev. Philip White on the Background of New Thought. These talks are so engaging and packed with useful information that I couldn't stop listening once I started. Phil is just a wonderful speaker and he is so filled with wisdom. These talks by Phil will deepen your faith and enrich your life.

The talks are segmented into 167 sound clips to allow you to skip around. Some of my favorites are:

• (preachers take note!) the discovery that images and ideas are more powerful than words (clips 62-63)
• where we got our ideas about the goodness and immanence of God and the divinity of man (clips 100-102)
• the split of the priestly way and the medical way of healing (clips 111-113)
• mesmerism, hypnotism, Freud and the origin of affirmations (clips 126-132)
• Quimby's theological basis for healing (clips 144-145)
• why some Unity ministers stress Mind and others stress Idea-Expression (clips 153 and 163)

This Palm Sunday, at Unity Church of the Hills in Austin, Texas, Rev. Steve and others dedicated ourselves and our church to the achievement of world peace through the dedication of our Peace Pole.

The Revealing Word is now included in the TruthUnity Wiki, which has added about 125,000 new links to the online Bible version. Go here to open an index for The Revealing Word, click on any word of your choice, such as Baptism and see that there are links not only to Bible references, but also dozens of links to other entries in The Revealing Word itself. And there are now entries in the Bible that link back to The Revealing Word. For example, go to Gen. 1 and see that there are entries for earth, Heaven and good.

I hope this makes doing Metaphysical Bible interpretation easy and enjoyable. And I also hope that you will be able to see connections that we had previously overlooked. Be sure to forward this email on to anyone you know who may be doing Metaphysical Bible interpretation and encourage them to stay in touch. There's lots more coming and I want to make sure they know about it.

Thursday is a day to count our blessings and to call to mind our bounty. In Unity, we place our attention on our good, that which blesses us, that which God provides to sustain our physical and spiritual needs. By gently focusing our attention, with clarity and interest, we expand our good. Let me share with you a new way to grow our bounty ...
