A dear friend gave me a copy of Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy about thirty years ago, just after my mother passed on. My friend saw that I was deeply grieved but also that I turned completely to my Bible for comfort. I was a member, at that time, of a Protestant church.

My friend said, "Please read this book. It will help you and your family. It will help you to understand the truths of the Bible and recognize God as divine Mind, Spirit, Life, Truth, Principle, Soul, and Love." I thanked her very much and, later that day, I started reading it.

As I read, I felt a reverent, spiritual feeling that I had never felt for any book except the Bible. I knew that there was something sacred and divine about this book. For six years I read Science and Health while still attending the Protestant church I belonged to. But it was my twelve-year-old daughter who was instrumental in guiding me to change my membership to the Church of Christ, Scientist.
