Synopsis

COURAGE, CONVICTION AND CONSCIOUSNESS provides more than 365 inspirational messages from more than 107 historic Women of New Thought. The book thereby offers glimpses into the spiritual core of those who took a leap of faith into a fresh spiritual journey of joy and discovery in New Thought – and then sought to spread the Word of God in their own unique ways. What you’ll therefore find within this loving volume are the voices of many of those who (along with their male counterparts) built and sustained the New Thought movement through its first 150 years. Many of them will be known to you. Some will at first appear somewhat less familiar. All have messages of Truth to share that were written especially for you.

About this title

About the Author:

Rev. Dr. C. William (Will) Mercer is the Immediate Past President of Divine Science Federation International and co-ministers the United Divine Freedom Church of the Healing Christ (a church without walls) with his wife, the Rev. Sédare Coradin-Mercer, in New York City’s Harlem neighborhood. Dr. Will also is a retired New York and Colorado attorney and a highly regarded public speaker and adult educator. Dr. Will’s exposure to New Thought dates to age twelve when his Aunt Ruth Carr gifted him a subscription to Unity’s “Daily Word.” Although New Thought material “rained” on Dr. Will for many years he remained remarkably dry, as he describes it. Finally, at age fifty-four, a convergence of events caused a spiritual awakening and a period of non-stop “epiphanation” that led him to seek ordination in New Thought. His specific interest in Divine Science stems from the inspiration provided by his Aunt Ruth, who achieved Divine Science ordination at the age of 87. Will’s love for history is lifelong and plays a central role in his ministry. He recently completed two important books on the history of New Thought’s oldest denomination, Divine Science, and the life and works of Malinda Elliott Cramer: PRESENT AT THE BEGINNING (2014) and THE CHRISTOLOGY CONNECTION (2015). In COURAGE, CONVICTION AND CONSCIOUSNESS (2016), Dr. Will focuses his attention on the larger population of unique women that stood at the forefront of New Thought at its beginning as well as those who contributed to the growth and expansion of the movement’s reach and impact worldwide up through the present day. All are now transitioned and the Timeless Truth of their lessons and other writings resonates with us in New Thought and Practical Spirituality today. All are recognized, acknowledged, thanked and loved for their fine stewardship of our teachings and for the love of God that we see through them. Together, these three volumes compose Dr. Will's TIMELESS TRUTH SERIES.
