A search for home brought me to Christian Science
Back in the spring of 2001, I was interested in buying a fixer-upper in a historic neighborhood in a midwestern city. While doing research on the home I wanted to buy, I came across some interesting information regarding previous owners. Two daughters of the original occupants had been charter members of the local Church of Christ, Scientist, which was just a few blocks away.
So, shortly after closing on the house, I went to the nearby Christian Science Reading Room to find out more about these people. The Reading Room attendant had no information about them, but had a wealth of information about Christian Science, and I left with a copy of Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy.
