Radio Program - Dominion for Man—Now

A Christian Science period in the Columbia "Church of the Air" series was conducted from Station WJAS, Pittsburgh, on May 2, 1943, by Mr. Leon D. Hansen. This program was presented under the auspices of the Committee on Publication for Pennsylvania with the approval of The Christian Science Board of Directors. Mrs. Ann Vernon Root, soloist, was assisted by Mrs. Margaret C. Lunt, organist.

The program opened with Hymn No. 136 in the Christian Science Hymnal, and then Mr. Hansen read an address substantially as follows:

When Captain Rickenbacker gave tribute to the power of prayer, following his deliverance from starvation and destruction in the South Pacific, he focused the attention of an entire nation on a vital fact—that God is, indeed, a "very present help in trouble." This widely recognized proof of God's saving power has stirred the imagination of many people. It has caused them to wonder why divine power is not more generally manifested in the affairs of men and nations. Surely, as God's ready aid was experienced in that critical hour of need, it must be equally available at all times and to all who call upon Him, for "God is no respecter of persons."
