If you have never been to a Unity church, TRY IT! It doesn't hurt, really! It is one of the most non-judgemental and open-minded churches out there and that is what was attractive to me. I came from a Catholic background but have been to many other types of churches. I find that many other Christian religions can be very close-minded and judgemental. I haven't found that to be the case with Unity. People are friendly and I feel a loving-spirit that welcomes everyone, regardless of your past or present religious views. Jesus is our way-shower and Jesus LOVED everyone, no matter who they were or where they were from. So, give Unity a chance. I had stopped going to church for a long time before I chose to attend a Unity church...I was curious because a client of mine had told me a little bit about Unity. I have been attending ever since. It is my Spiritual Home that feeds my Soul every day.

Dee, I imagine Emerald Eyes is trying to be helpful, but it doesn't appear to me she has read what you said. I've always thought of Unity as a cross between mystical Christianity and the meditative traditions in the east. Since it sounds like this is what you have going on in your household you may be quite comfortable at Unity. Emerald Eyes84, speaking for myself as a member of a Unity Church and not in any official capacity for the Unity movement, I think it is rude to go to another denomination's website and try to put off people who are seeking answers to questions from members of that denomination. This seems to me more about control than God.

I don't think your answer is becoming a member of this church. I have a husband who isn't exactly an atheist, but he isn't a christian either, so I can relate. You need to be a witness to your husband. You need to set an example for your daughters in letting them know that your husband beliefs are not the same. If you are truly a christian you know that Jesus is the only way, it says so in the Bible. If I were you, I wouldn't make it easier for your husband to believe in Buddha by going to a church that believes no what matter what religion a person has they are going to heaven, I would go to a Bible believing christian church. Hope this helps. I will be praying for you and your family. God bless.

I want to caution anyone new to this religion and even the people who have been members a long time. Please be careful to read your Bible and trust in what God says. Do not just take other people's word for it. This organization believes there are many ways to get to heaven and that they are all equal. If you read the Bible, you will find that is not true. Jesus said he is the only way. The only things you need to have a personal relationship with God is your Bible and Jesus. I will be praying for all of you. God Bless.

I am looking into the unity belief and possibly going to a church soon. I am ofcourse really not sure what to expect. I have two daughters and dont want them to feel to uneasy about a new church. We have a unique family in religous aspects I am basically christian based, but am opened to other beliefs. My husband meditates with Zen Buddists at a temple on Saturdays. He is supportive with what faith we believe and I am of him. I honestly would like for him to join us on occasion to show his support to our daughters religous journey as well as mine. Can anyone describe or help me in this area?

I just want to say thank you for the prayers and that my request was answered YES! This is an answer for a life long inner gift needing to be lifted and blessed. I know that God has shown me the direction now to go. I carry in my heart the affirmation that "I am a successful child of God and blessed with unlimited talents and abilities". Thank you and many blessings for you love :) joobee

I want to say thank you to Silent Unity because with out you I don't know where I would find comfort I pray on my own but sometimes I think that because of my faith that the Lord doesn't hear me I need help and I want to be able to others forever and ever tell me what should I do

Wonderful idea, New Man! I think I still have an old Weight Watchers "point counter" bracelet that I can use in the same way. Thanks so much for sharing your inspiration...
