What are Unity's distinctive characteris- tics?

Unity students are encouraged to align with the spirit of the Christ
within for personal guidance and direction that will best enhance their
spiritual growth.

The Unity ministry provides a safe and sacred space for study,
participation, fellowship, support, transformation and awakening to the joy of
living in God's world. Each Unity ministry is sup- ported by the
freewill offerings of those who share its vision.

Unity affirms the freedom of each individual to advance spiritually
according to his or her own level of understanding.

Respect for and faith in the spirit of God in every person makes it
unnecessary to set down fixed creeds or impose limiting beliefs.

Each individual is encouraged to follow the Unity teachings in
determining personal responses in his or her life.
