Can Christian Science solve my problems?

“Build muscle. Heal your injuries. Get strong.” Sounds pretty appealing, right? The people who own the gym across from my church thought so. Those are the words they put on their front window—the words I see every time I’m going to or from church.

It’s gotten me thinking about what we as Christian Scientists have to offer. Every week on JSH-Online.com we publish testimonies from people all over the world. So healing is definitely one of the things we have to give the planet—and a significant thing. Because the healing we’re talking about goes deep. Maybe you’ve experienced this for yourself. Christian Science healing isn’t just about fixing a broken body or having a quick turnaround when you’re sick.

The healing that results from the practice of Christian Science reaches to your very core, giving you a new, spiritualized, more beautiful understanding of the way God made you. And the effect of that is also a healing of the cold or sprained ankle or whatever it is you’re dealing with. Healing through and through. There’s nothing else on earth that can compete with that.
