How I Found Christian Science

My search for truth

Previously, I was always complaining about my luck and blaming God for all the negative things in my life. Nowadays, I am certain that I am a beloved son of God, without limitations. I feel completely free and satisfied. 

Christian Science found me

I had always believed in God, and was looking for something that would satisfy me and help me understand who I was and what my purpose was in life. So I went to the meeting.

The demand for church

I like to think of each church that grows up in a community as that community's answered prayer for the presence of the saving Christ—the message of God's love for humanity.

I took home several copies of The Herald of Christian Science from the Christian Science Reading Room. The testimonies of healing in the magazines inspired me so much that I realized everyone could perform such healings if we understood and applied these teachings.

Our family members and friends noticed the big difference in our family, through our tranquil attitude. I understand this to be due to the fact that we are constantly conscious of the truth governing us and the whole universe.

I learned that God, as divine Mind, is the source of all movement. This transformed my thought about the mobility difficulties. I immediately acquired the Christian Science textbook, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy, and soaked up its spiritual truths like a sponge.
I went upstairs to the medicine cabinet and threw the pain relievers and sleeping pills away. I never took another one, nor have I had another headache since.

I yearned for heaven on earth

I learned that I could embrace the world in my prayers and recognize everyone as truly being in God’s kingdom. To me, these practices constitute the essence of Church and the recipe for healing.
I had publicly stated my commitment to Christian Science and my desire to be healed through its study and practice. This was a big step for me.

My life changed forever

Since my son’s return to health, I have been reading the Christian Science textbook, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy, and I’ve realized that a life dedicated to God brings out a beauty and love that have always been deep inside of me.
The inspiring ideas contained in the Sentinel were right on target—just what I had been searching for.
