Harmony.



“About one-half the people in the world spend their time seeking happiness and the other half waste a lot of energy in bewailing their fate because they are not happy. It is the rare and unusual thing for a soul to realize that happiness is not a force but a result of the harmonious action of many forces, and therefore is the inevitable effect of their own thought and actions which have put into operation these forces. Happiness has very little relation to the outside conditions as it relates from causes produced by inner and finer thought effects which act directly upon the emotional centers.” – Grace M. Brown

 Grace Mann Brown ( 1859 – 1925 ) was an American writer and spiritual leader. Her work was related to the New Thought Movement, Divine Science and Christian Science. Much of her work focused on spirituality, metaphysics, mysticism, esoteric and occult sciences.

The Radiant I AM



In 1887, encouraged by her sister, Alethea B(rooks) Small, Nona Brooks attended classes taught by Katherine (Kate) Quiner Bingham (1849 - 1913), a student of Emma Curtis Hopkins. This was the same year that Malinda Cramer started taking classes with Emma Curtis Hopkins. While attending these classes, Brooks "found herself healed of a persistent throat infection" and shortly thereafter Brooks and Small began to heal others.  Bingham had gone to Chicago to seek help for an illness and had been cured by Mabel MacCoy, another student of Emma Curtis Hopkins. The third sister, Fannie B(rooks) James, also studied under Mabel MacCoy. It was in 1898 that Nona Brooks first studied with Cramer.

unveil within your consciousness; and with every truth made apparent
an error will flee before it."   -

ONE for all and all for ONE

There is only ONE
God is ALL in ALL, ONE.
You are stuck in the middle of a kaleidoscope projecting images as it goes round and round and round.
“Be still and know that I am God” – Ps46:10


You seek answers through counseling, books, seminars, church, prayer, psychology or any other self-help-process.

You wait in anticipation of the “other side” where life is wondrous.


You are in Heaven (GOD) NOW.
Christ IS the Light that saves you from a world of thought (the dream of unreality, cinematographic pictures, the script) that is your True Identity.


“IAM THE WAY”
“I AM” the way.




"There is nothing but God."
~ Frederick L. Rawson

The absolute truth is, that there is but One Being in the universe, and that one is God; that man is nothing of himself, separate from God; that it is a delusion, a false belief, that there is any separation that is real.~ Annie Rix Militz
There is only God; all seeming else is a lie.~ H. Emilie Cady
You are because I am.
~ Brother Mandus
"We live in God and know it not."
~ Charles Brodie Patterson

“Since God is health and God is omnipresent, what is there to be healed?” There is only one condition to be healed--our misconceptions.
~NONA BROOKS
My happiness is within me.
~ Fannie Brooks James

All care, anxiety and fear vanished, and I felt that I was cradled in Divine Love
~Henry Thomas Hamblin
God isn't up there. He exists inside each one of us, and it's up to us to seek the divine within.
~ Eric Butterworth

"Human life is a dream and a journey in a strange land"
~Marcus Aurelius
"Matter, motion, and force, are not the reality, but the symbols of reality"

What and Where is Heaven?

My happiness is within me.
My peace and my joy are from God; I have God in my heart to make me happy.
My health and all my good is in God; the kingdom of God is within me.
I will let the truth of God's presence keep my thought pure; I shall find my perfect heaven here and now.
I love to think of God's presence within and all around me, for this is Truth.

New Thought Teacher


Fannie B(rooks) James (1854 – 1914)
New Thought Teacher
The Church of Divine Science founders were Malinda Cramer and Nona L. Brooks. Three others played decisive roles in Divine Science's formative period: Nona’s sisters Alethea B(rooks) Small (1848-1906) and Fannie B(rooks) James (1854-1914) as well as Katherine (Kate) Quiner Bingham (1849 - 1913) who contributed to Nona’s healing.



Teacher and Administrator
Alethea ( 1848 -  1906 ), the oldest of the Brooks sisters, played a key role in the establishment of the Colorado College of Divine Science, serving as its first President beginning in October 1898.  Along with Fannie B(rooks) James, she was instrumental in setting course for the Denver Divine Science activity, serving through the time that Nona Brooks committed to full-time ministry and leadership of the College and Church.
