Beginning and continuing in Christian Science

VIRGINIA T. GUFFIN

After the first day of school, the mother of one of my six-year-olds called to tell me her little son had announced he wasn't going back anymore. The trouble? I hadn't taught him to read or write his first day!

Understanding Christian Science and demonstrating its teachings in healing, like learning to read and write, come step by step. Through daily prayer and study of the Bible and Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures the truth of being will begin to dawn.

Reading Science and Health through from the beginning is a good way to start. Containing the complete statement of Christian Science, it is the textbook for beginners as well as seasoned students. Those who have studied Science seriously for a long time continue to find expansive ideas and meaning in Science and Health. Even its author, Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, studied this book. Wherever students are in their progress, they will find in Science and Health the truths they need in order to move ahead.
