I was raised Catholic, then spent many years attending fundamentalist non-denominational churches. Studied energy and healing techniques, alternative medicine & explored a lot of New Age ideas. Studied A Course in Miracles, which really helped me rethink "religion" and Jesus Christ. Then I found the Unity Church and felt "at home" at last. It grew out of the New Thought movement of the late 19th century, and focuses on a metaphysical interpretation of the Bible. It's not so much a church as a school of thought. (and not to be confused with the Unitarian Church - that's not us) People come to Unity from all kinds of backgrounds and with a wide range of spiritual beliefs... "Unitics" are an interesting bunch!
