What is a New Thought Center?

One God One Thought Center for Better Living

A New Thought (Metaphysical) Center teaches that life's potential is greater than the outer appearance. We understand our true selves to be more than the physical, but to be that perfect, whole and complete idea of God. OGOT supports the development of UFBL New Thought centers throughout the mid-Atlantic, including The Divinity Center for Better Living in Washington, D.C, The Spiritual Unfold-ment Center in Richmond, VA, and the Path of Life Center for Better Living on the Eastern Shore.

  • To teach principle and a practical Christianity based on the abundant teachings of Jesus the Christ.
