Youth

God was protecting us 

Wondering what you might get out of attending Christian Science Sunday School? When this author’s horse bolted with her on its back, she found out for herself.

Two healings in one 

For this teen, feeling sick wasn’t the only issue she was facing; she was also feeling scared and unsettled about a friendship that had fallen apart. Could one prayer resolve both issues?
“I remembered how, in the story of Nehemiah, he never fell for the tricks of enemies who were trying to stop him.”
Sometimes it seems like our lives are full of scary things we have to deal with. But as this author discovered, when we see these problems through the lens of Christian Science, we don’t have to be intimidated by them anymore.

Why I believe in God 

Find out how this teen went from feeling disconnected from God, to realizing she could pray effectively not just for herself, but also for others.
“I was pretty scared about the trip and the injury, but I realized I didn’t have to let fear keep me from feeling confident in the spiritual truths I was learning.”
Feeling overwhelmed by all the problems in the world, this author got new insight into God’s presence and love from a place she didn’t expect: a choir concert.
In school, note-taking was both a crutch and a burden for this student. But she couldn’t do things differently and still do well … could she?
At first, when her neck was hurting, all this teen wanted was to feel better. But as she prayed, she found that the healing was about something so much bigger than that.

How I prayed after I got mugged

“At school, I was loving to those kids and tried to be their friend because I know they aren’t my enemies.” 
Sometimes, when you’re facing something difficult, it feels like the only answer is to run around trying to find a solution. This author, however, learned the efficacy of literally and figuratively standing still.
