Mary Baker Eddy: A woman for all seasons

Mike Davis

Listen to this chat to learn more about Mary Baker Eddy and her notable contribution to the world as the discoverer and founder of Christian Science. Responding to a questioner, Mike says when you compare how well known she was in her life to how little people know her today, you might wonder what happened. But he emphasizes that the most important thing for people who follow her teachings today is to do more outstanding healing work. He says, "It was really the healing that brought Mary Baker Eddy to public notice in her own time."

The chat questions range from queries about biographies of Mary Baker Eddy, to the many editions of Science and Health that she revised, her relationship with her community, her leadership of the Christian Science church, and her comments/writings on apocalyptic thinking.
