Thank you for the continuous efforts to explore options, reexamine existing formats/policies and make changes appropriate for the time and reflective of Christian Science and its Discoverer. I greatly appreciate you and your work.

> Douglas Paul, “Whose hand is on the spigot?” Sentinel, November 10, 2025

This is such an important article. I found it waiting for me on JSH-Online.com as I came away from agonizing over frightening developments in various countries. Earlier today, I had prayed for a better understanding of how to stay close to God, Love—how to pray aright in the midst of seemingly dreadful political situations. Now I have my answer. It felt like a perfect and immediate response to prayer. I am so grateful. Thank you!
