Over twenty years ago Christian Science came into my life, and for this I never cease to be grateful, as this truth has been the solution of all my problems during this time. Through the reading of Christian Science literature given to my wife I became interested and found that I could agree with its teachings, which were not at all like my preconceived belief of what Christian Science taught. Although healing was not what attracted me in the first place, it did not take long for me to find out that putting its teachings into practice did heal.

The susceptibility to taking colds was one of the first ills that were overcome by reliance on Christian Science instead of material means. From earliest childhood I had been subject to chronic stomach trouble and periodic headaches, and had taken a great deal of medicine in the attempt to get relief. Many kinds of food I could not eat, as I found them indigestible. But after a short period of earnest study of the Bible and of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, I was able to eat anything without suffering, and there has been no return of the headaches.

Prior to my becoming interested in Christian Science the Bible was a sealed book to me, and attempts to read it only resulted in a confused state of mind. Now it has become a veritable wellspring of inspiration to me through the use of this spiritual "key" to the Bible.
