DIVINE SCIENCE IS:
- A LIFE PHILOSOPHY FOR PEOPLE WHO CONSIDER THEMSELVES SPIRITUAL BUT NOT RELIGIOUS
- TEACHINGS THAT BRING TOGETHER ANCIENT WISDOM WITH NEW INTERPRETATIONS OF WHAT IT MEANS TO BE ALIVE AND HUMAN
- ONE OF THREE ORIGINAL NEW THOUGHT CHURCHES:
- DIVINE SCIENCE
- UNITY
- RELIGIOUS SCIENCE
- DIVINE SCIENCE HONORS ALL SPIRITUAL WALKS THAT DO NOT JUDGE OTHERS OR DECLARE THERE IS ONLY ONE RIGHT WAY TO EXPERIENCE THE DIVINE

NEW THOUGHT ORGANIZATIONS SHARE CORE BELIEFS:
- IMMANENCE OF GOD: Rather than being a distant, separate entity, God is present within all things and within each individual, .
- THE DIVINE NATURE OF HUMANITY: Humans are inherently Divine and capable of manifesting their highest potential through positive thinking and spiritual practices.
- THE POWER OF THOUGHT: Thoughts are powerful and influence one’s reality, both internally and externally.
- ONENESS IS POSSIBLE: People can live in harmony and oneness with each other and God by changing their thoughts to align with spiritual principles.
- SPIRITUAL HEALING: Sickness and disease can originate in the mind and, therefore, can be healed by the mind, as well.
- JESUS AS A TEACHER AND HEALER: New Thought views Jesus as a teacher and healer who demonstrated the power of positive thought and spiritual awareness. He is seen as a way-shower that should be honored and emulated, not worshipped as a deity.
- MYSTICISM: New Thought is rooted in mysticism, emphasizing intuition and direct experience of the Divine rather than dogma or doctrine.
- SCIENCE IS USEFUL: Rather than seeing science as opposed to spiritual belief, New Thought considers science a useful tool for understanding God’s creation and being effective practitioners of New Thought principles.
