St Pete’s newest hot spot for spirituality, music, books and more is open! And if you like recent hits like the movie The Secret and What the Bleep, then you'll love us!

We used to be known as simply First Unity’s bookstore. And for more than 20 years this small room--run by volunteers--held the Unity classics, Daily Words, Bibles, and some cards and small gifts. In the late 1980s and early 90s, we saw evidence of a world waking up, as Deepak Chopra and Marianne Williamson appeared on the scene, followed by James Redfield’s The Celestine Prophecy in 1995. The Dead Sea Scrolls were made public, the energy body was discovered, our connection to Mother Earth and ancient cultures was re-discovered, and Oprah talked about meditation.

Yes, the Unity message was out of the closet, but our bookstore was still nestled in its 300-plus sq. ft. nook inside the church. And it was bursting at the seams.

In the meantime, an apparently unrelated set of circumstances in 1998 brought about First Unity’s purchase of a parcel of land connected to our church property in St. Petersburg. The annex contained two buildings. One was to be used for a church school, and the other building, a small 4-unit strip center, became rental property and was leased out.

Sometime in early 2005, a thought arose…why not move our bookstore into the building on 4th Street—one of St. Petersburg’s busiest commercial streets—and create a place to introduce Unity to the community?
