Discover the Christ Idea

• What is it and where did it come from?
• What did “Christ” mean to the people of Jesus’ time?
• How did the idea of Christ evolve during the time when the New Testament was being written?
• How can Christ empower you today?

In this class, you’ll rely on the Bible to develop an understanding of Christ—and unlock a new perspective on the relationships of Jesus, God, and humanity. Sign up for “The Christ” and prepare to see the world in a bright, new way.

This course is advanced study for the committed student of Unity. If you’re new to Unity, please take a look at the introductory “Unity for Today” or other online classes.
