Spiritual Education

 

What is Spiritual Education?

 
Go deeper. Spiritual Education is your opportunity to connect to Spirit more than you ever can by just listening to the Sunday talks.
 
Our classes are interactive. Our approach is not to lecture you, but instead get you involved in the flow of the class, so the subject truly interests you.

Make friends and deepen connections. Because our classes are so interactive, they become a chance to meet new people and reconnect with old friends.

 
Small groups are more intimate. Some of our classes are broken up into a handful of people, led by a facilitator, instead of the usual 20 or more. This allows deeper discussion of the subject and an even greater chance to connect with others.
 
Jesus, Eckhart and Katie. Not a barroom joke, just indicative of the broad diversity of our Spiritual Education. Throughout the year, our classes and workshops can vary from Bible (from a non-traditional viewpoint), to modern mystics such as Byron Katie and Eckhard Tolle, to Unity teachings such as Metaphysics or the 12 Powers, and even quantam physics and how it relates to spirituality.
 
Om. We also bring in meditation teachers from a variety of traditions, for workshops to recharge your spiritual practice. Recent meditation workshops included Robert Brumet (Unity writer) and Bhante Wimala (Buddhist monk).

There are ususally 5 or 6 such classes throughout the year.

Spiritual Education and Enrichment program (SEE)


This is a Unity-wide program to provide some of the best spiritual and metaphysical education available. Some of our classes, though not all, fall within this program. What that means is that taking the class makes you eligible for SEE education credits, as well as for church Membership. This will be indicated in the class description.


Classes are also available online through Unity Institute: www.unityinstitute.org/online or at occasional regional conferences (we will announce those).


Personal spiritual enrichment is the goal. However, you do not have to enroll for credit, you can just take these classes for personal spiritual growth. 


Want to be a teacher or minister? If you are even thinking about someday becoming either a Licensed Unity Teacher or a Unity Minister, this is a good place to start on that path, and earn some credits towards that. You can also earn a SEE certificate after 25 courses.


Information Sessions. We hold occassional informational sessions explaining the SEE program. Look for those being announced, or go to www.unityinstitute.org/see for more information.
