Knee pain healed

Kim Wiklund

Last August, after having retired early, I found out that someone I had worked with was a Christian Scientist. She and I happened to be playing in the same golf league, and without the constraints of the workplace, were starting to get to know each other better. I had little knowledge about Christian Science and had always been curious about why people choose the paths to God that they do, so I began to ask her questions, which she answered openly and candidly.

My interest being piqued, I decided to find out a little more about this religion and its founder, Mary Baker Eddy. I knew that Eddy had written a book called Science and Health, but I knew absolutely nothing about it, so I had a sample downloaded to my Kindle. I started to read the first chapter, “Prayer,” and within the first few paragraphs I was almost yelling to myself, “Yes!” The God that I had always known in my heart was unfolding right before my very eyes in this book that had been written by a woman over 100 years earlier. I was amazed that the absolute Truth had been completely organized into the religion of Christian Science, and that it had been under my nose all this time.
