William P. Keasbey

In I Peter we read: "But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear." Every person who attends a Christian Science Wednesday evening testimony meeting, or who picks up one of the periodicals, thus mutely asks a reason for the hope that fires the heart of every sincere student of Christian Science. No wonder Mrs. Eddy says (Manual of The Mother Church, Art. VIII, Sect. 24), "Testimony in regard to the healing of the sick is highly important."

I did not take up the study of Christian Science for physical healing. My father was a physician, and I was much opposed to what I thought Christian Science to be. Consequently, I went to a Reading Room and borrowed a copy of the textbook, Science and Health, and read it through solely for the purpose of pointing out its worthlessness! However, even during that first and definitely antagonistic reading, I was healed of the belief that I could not read on a moving train without severe eyestrain and a resultant sick headache.

Finding no flaws in the textbook, however hard I looked, I took up the study of Christian Science and have been wonderfully blessed thereby.
