New Thought is Practical Christianity that empowers people to realize their potential by becoming consciously aware of Spirit within them. New Thought teaches universal spiritual principles that enable people to build happy and prosperous lives. New Thought helps people to change their circumstances by changing their thoughts, feelings and beliefs.
The Bible and Metaphysics
"The Bible is our primary textbook. The Bible is the story of our spiritual growth. It records how we were created, how we lost our divine heritage, and how we may regain it." Let There Be Light—Elizabeth Sands Turner
We interpret the Bible metaphysically and allegorically in order to discover the teachings embedded within the scriptures.
We believe the Bible offers nourishment for the soul, and we use its lessons as reminders of our divine origin and purpose.

Meet Your Teachers
One God One Thought Center for Better LIving teachers are licensed through the Johnnie Colemon Theological Seminary (JCTS). Through theJCTS course of study teachers understand that "the gift of teaching is the supernatural ability to explain clearly and apply effectively the Truth of the Word of God." Becoming a channel through which the Holy Spirit works, teaching becomes a partnership between the teacher and the Holy Spirit. It requires the teacher to be well prepared. In teaching, the teacher’s knows that it is not of themselves that the Truth comes forth, but by the Spirit within…it is the Father within. The main goal of teaching is to impart knowledge of the Truth, transform lives, thereby enhancing one’s own spiritual growth.
