Next in our biweekly series on how people have nurtured their public practice of Christian Science.

ANYONE CAN BE A HEALER

LOVE TO SHARE

IF SOMEONE HAD TOLD ME years ago that one day I would be in the public practice of Christian Science healing, I would have shaken my head and said, "No chance; that's not for me." A few of the many reasons would have included that I felt I wasn't a good enough person, was not an academic (which I mistakenly thought was necessary for the practice), and had no desire to study this Science.

What changed?

There was a time in my life, after graduating from the Christian Science Sunday School, when for about 12 years I cut myself off from God. I got into wrong relationships and let my moral standards drop. Then my marriage started to break down, and I was constantly ill. I felt I had lost my purpose in life and that nobody would care if I wasn't here anymore.
