There's a new Mary Baker Eddy biography...

A World More Bright: The Life of Mary Baker Eddy
by Isabel Ferguson and Heather Vogel Frederick
The Christian Science Publishing Society 

Jenny Nelles and Jeff Ward-Bailey, the Sentinel’s Teen Editors, give you a glimpse into a new biography from The Christian Science Publishing Society: A World More Bright: The Life of Mary Baker Eddy by Isabel Ferguson and Heather Vogel Frederick. What makes this biography different from the rest? While the book certainly appeals to all ages, it was written with youth in mind. 

Jenny: As someone who enjoys reading biographies in general, this book really spoke to me. It was cool to see an emphasis on how Mary Baker Eddy navigated relationships with family, friends, and even people who called themselves her enemies and pretty much made it their goal in life to bring her down. A lot has been said about her discipline and how spiritually empowered she was, but it really struck me how she also handled things with so much love and a readiness to forgive. She wasn’t a pushover, but she gave people so many opportunities to make things right. Her spirituality and her deep devotion to God really informed all of her actions. I think that’s a lesson we can all learn!
