Introduction
If you are ready to unleash your True Potential, your Christ Nature, this is the course for you! During this 12-week course of study, each student will be dedicating themselves to 12 weeks of spiritual practice. One week will be devoted to each Power, examining how each is used from various levels of awareness – from unaware to developing Christ Consciousness.
About the Course
In this course, we will study, explore and experience Charles Fillmore's teachings on the Twelve Powers amplified by more contemporary material as well as some gems from the Unity Archives. The Twelve Powers is Unity's central teaching for developing Christ Nature. It seems like almost every chapter of Charles' other books contain some reference to this powerful teaching. We will review the book, The Twelve Powers, by Charles Fillmore. In doing so, we will also review many of our basic Unity principles. Our working knowledge of our Truth Principles will then be put into practical application in our own lives. Through the use of these Twelve Powers and other Truth Principles, you will begin unleashing your Christ Potential and a new destiny as you choose.
Course Presentation
Faculty will prepare a Learning Guide for each week's work. The Learning Guide will include comments about the topic to be studied during the week, as well as suggestions about what to look for in the assigned readings.
Questions of special interest to individual students will be answered by e-mail.

Enriching the Experience
Prayer, Reflection and Journaling
