Re: Metaphysical Study for the Year 2007–2008
The metaphysical topic for the year is: “Love impels good works” (Mis. 358:1). Christian healing and doing good daily is the backdrop for this year’s theme. The Trustees have asked us to focus on “The Way” from Miscellaneous Writings, and this theme is taken from that article. The full article is included in the September readings. Below is a list of study citations that the Trustees and administrators will be using in their metaphysical support for the school. We invite you to join in this monthly study.
