The Divine Science Way is a gathering of individuals interested in applying the contemporary teachings of Scientific Metaphysics and in research as a community of metaphysical scientists. For us, this means "being the Science" and involves the practice or discipline of applying metaphysical principles to our daily lives. More...

"The Divine Scientist refers to the Spirit of Truth as the very nature of our Creator. When we use the expression Truth in Divine Science, we're not speaking of material facts which change from day to day. We mean the eternal, underlying verities of life from which temporal things emerge. There isn't a material blessing in this universe of ours that did not originate in infinite Intelligence. We do know that there is a Spirit of Truth which holds the right answer to every question or human predicament. The Spirit of Truth, therefore, is the intelligent, operative law of God or good.

Now you will find as you study with us that we often use the word LAW. Some people think this is a rather cold, arbitrary word. But the law of anything is the way the thing works. It is the nature of that thing. So when we speak of God as Law, we're thinking of God nature expressing itself according to its own innate qualities and characteristics here among us. It acts as a liberating factor in our lives when we cooperate with it. There must be cooperation. We're never any further away from this Presence than the length and breadth of a thought, because we live in it. We live because of it, we exist from it; and therefore, it's always with us, but if we have not included it in our thinking or our deliberations, we sort of break the contact, or we sever ourselves from reality."

The Divine Science Way is a gathering of individuals who define Divine Science for themselves by being the individual divinity of humanity or true humanhood. For us this means embracing a scientific approach to existence and in so doing rejecting the traditional God-idea or theological approach of mysticism as obsolete. This is the Science Age. The references listed in our reading list and other materials of authors and teachers are not our personal teachers. They represent ideas. Through long searching we have discerned the clearest articulators of contemporary metaphysical science speaking to our present understanding. The writers of the materials of traditional, denominational Divine Science are for us historical, mythical examples of the search for Truth at a particular stage in human unfoldment and present beliefs that are were evolutionary at the time, but which we find confusing today. We find Dr. Irwin Gregg's book The Divine Science Way to be a clear and simple summary statement of his living of divine Science for someone new to metaphysics and who appreciates a traditional Christian view. But since that material is now out-dated, Rob Craig has undertaken to re-write it in his own paraphrase attempting to flavor its essential ideas with the awarenesses of today. For us, the works of Mrs. Margaret Laird and Hubert Benoit, studied together, offer a very challenging vision of true humanhood for the more advanced student and which exercises our power of discernment (Christ) more than any writings we have found to date. We have found Mrs. Laird to be the evolving of that late 19th century teaching of the early pioneers of Science far beyond itself and into a challenge to today's thinkers to make the teachings of divine Science relevant to the 21st Century. Mrs. Laird's courage in being the Science of one infinite spiritual Mind is inspiring to us.

Also, we have found the works of the Jesus Seminar scholars to be a great contribution to our spiritual understanding of the Jesus teachings. Ignoring these findings which more correctly evaluate the New Testament in an analytical, scientific manner may impede the unfoldment of one's advancing metaphysical understanding.
