Book Description
This book describes how the origins of the New Thought movement, the uniquely American spiritual philosophy that developed at the turn of the 20th century, can be found in the oldest philosophical systems of humanity, and how it is closely connected with the revival of Transcendentalism which occurred in America about 1800 to 1825. The text of this new edition has been edited into gender neutral language in recognition of the author's desire to bring the insights of New Thought to all people. Gender neutral language is a subtle but important way to promote equality, and equality is at the core of Atkinson's thinking. It also includes the author's "Working Creed", a summary of both his personal beliefs and the New Thought system in general. This new, gender neutral edition brings Atkinson's insights to a new generation of readers in need of his timeless insights. William Walker Atkinson (1862-1932) was a lawyer, businessman, publisher, and prolific author writing under his own name and various pen names. After suffering a mental and physical breakdown, and financial disaster, he found renewal in the New Thought movement that took the American spiritual landscape by storm in the late 1800's. Atkinson regained his mental and physical health as well as his material prosperity after embracing this philosophy. William Walker Atkinson contributed immeasurably to the development of New Thought through his many books and articles and other activities.

Book Description
New Thought is a spiritual philosophy with a diversified following of individuals who come from a wide variety of religious backgrounds and now find spiritual nourishment and comfort from organizations such as Unity, Science of Mind, Religious Science, and Divine Science. Regardless of the name on the building or label on the door, what ties them all together is the predominant belief in one God Universal Mind, creative intelligence, omnipresent a principle (not a being), an impersonal force that manifests itself personally, perfectly, and equally within all. For anyone at the doorsteps of New Thought seeking a personal, loving, joyful, spiritual life that resonates truth without judgment, the answers to many of their initial questions are within The New Thought Christian, a brief over-view of the key beliefs and topics that form the basis of New Thought.

Book Description
Beyond Christianity draws on rich ethnographic work in a Religious Science church in Oakland, California, to illuminate the ways a group of African Americans has adapted a religion typically thought of as white to fit their needs and circumstances. This predominantly African American congregation is an anomalous phenomenon for both Religious Science and African American religious studies. It stands at the intersection of New Thought doctrine, characterized by personal empowerment teachings,and a culturally familiar liturgical style reminiscent of Black Pentecostals and Black Spiritualists. This group challenges oversimplified concepts of the Black church experience and broadens the concept of Black religion outside the boundaries of Christianity—raising questions about what it means to be an African American congregation, and about the nature of blackness itself. Beyond Christianity adds a new dimension to the scholarship on Black religion.

Book Description
THE MESSAGE OF NEW THOUGHTBy Abel L. AllenI have decoded republish this very famous, but the almost forgotten book "The Message Of New Thought", by one of the very first new thought authors of the 19th century, Abel L. Allen.Anyone who has been following the "New Thought" movement for any number of years should be familiar with the famous writings of Allen. However, if not, you are about to read one of the very best and most respected new thought books in history.I have not changed any of Allen's original writings. However, I have added the following bonus sections:*What Is The New Thought Movement*Universal Declaration of Human RightsJames M. BolinNow let us continue.Abel L AllenThe Message of New ThoughtTHOUSANDS of people are constantly asking three questions: What is New Thought? Wherein does it differ from the orthodox religions ? What is the line of divergence between New Thought and Christian Science? The purpose of this volume is to answer these inquiries. To that end it has been my endeavor, not only to set forth the basic ideas of New Thought, but also to compare its principles and teachings with those of the orthodox religions and Christian Science.This course has been adopted for several reasons. So many cults are springing into existence whose teachings differ widely from those of New Thought, yet are parading under its banner, that it is thought desirable to state its principles and philosophy with such certainty and clearness that its real message may hereafter be understood and that its name may be rescued from those seeking to appropriate it without a warrant. Great efforts have also been made to blend and combine the philosophy of New Thought with the teachings of the recognized creeds. I leave it to the reader to judge whether such a result is possible or not, when he has finished reading this volume.The hope and belief are freely entertained that the fundamental distinctions between New Thought and Christian Science have been stated in such a manner that they may be readily understood. The ethical values of the teachings of New Thought as compared with those of the orthodox religions are duly set forth and emphasized, that each may be carefully studied and weighed.New Thought is largely a restatement of old thought, vitalized with new life and meaning from the discoveries of modern psychology and the latest deductions of science. The reader must bear in mind, however, that the Old Thought was suppressed in the Western Hemisphere for nearly two thousand years; for the first time it is sending its illuminating rays to gladden the Western world.The effort has been made to set forth the essential teachings of New Thought in a concrete form in one convenient volume, and to that end, I have drawn with considerable freedom from modern science, philosophy, and the leading writers on New Thought. The quotations employed embrace some of the best thoughts of modern times. It is my earnest hope that this volume may arouse and animate a general interest in the study of New Thought and awaken a responsive chord to the beauty and sublimity of its teachings.
