Turning Points In Spiritual Growth

I grew up in Christian Science, but as a young adult with a baby daughter, I struggled with my faith in Christian Science healing.
I would like to express gratitude for all the ways in which Mary Baker Eddy’s timeless writings counsel us continually.

Write for JSH

Last year, as a junior in high school, I learned a big lesson in humbly trusting God to lead me where I need to be.
I was brought up with Christian Science.
I had always been proud of the religion ingrained in me from childhood.

The demand for church

I like to think of each church that grows up in a community as that community's answered prayer for the presence of the saving Christ—the message of God's love for humanity.

No more aggressive doubt

I grew up in a dedicated Christian Science family.

Never unwanted

As a child, I was often told I was unwanted, unwelcome, even a “thorn in the flesh.
In 1944, a series of physical exams for enlistment in the United States Armed Forces consistently indicated I had contracted tuberculosis.

Cover to cover

I was literally knocked off my feet.
My great-grandparents were contemporaries of Mary Baker Eddy, and my great-grandmother was the first in our family to become a Christian Scientist.
I was raised going to the Christian Science Sunday School, and I think it’s fair to say that I have never known a time when I didn’t know Christian Science.
