HOW CAN I LEARN CHRISTIAN SCIENCE?

DOROTHY HUNT SMITH

Like Christian in "Pilgrim's Progress," each one of us must find his own way to the Celestial City, that is, to the full recognition of God's allness and ever-presence. Each individual who has answered the call of the Christ has indicated a willingness to go up higher, and evil has no power to prevent his progress. Yet those who are beginning the study of Christian Science often wonder how and where to start. Those who once made a start but find they have missed the road wonder how to get back to the highway. And those who have stayed on it are always eager to progress more rapidly. Where can such seekers turn for guidance? No two people follow exactly the same path. However, the diversified and well-knit organization founded by our Leader, Mary Baker Eddy, has signposts and reminders for all with eyes to see. The way is easier and less lonely if we follow the route indicated by these signposts.

In "Miscellaneous Writings" Mrs. Eddy says (pp. 113, 114): "The systematized centres of Christian Science are life-giving fountains of truth. Our churches, The Christian Science Journal, and the Christian Science Quarterly, are prolific sources of spiritual power whose intellectual, moral, and spiritual animus is felt throughout the land. Our Publishing Society, and our Sunday Lessons, are of inestimable value to all seekers after Truth."
