July 2014:

John Doorly  in "The Book of Moses" explains how Moses used the Commandments for handling the error of his day and correlates it to how Mary Baker Eddy handled it in "The Apocalypse" chapter in Science and Health.  A very revealing anlaysis!  Book of Moses by John Doorly  

June 2014:

The lesson for June 2014 is in two parts. The first is from SATELLITES, SCIENCE, AND PEACE by Clifford and Daisy Stamp, which has been on the site for many years, this month we bring it "front and center". The second is a pamphlet by Peggy Brook titled "THE DIVINE INFINITE CALCULUS."

May 2014:

For May we are presenting a short, but most helpful piece, well worth a month's study. It has been on the site for a long time but someone recently re-called it to my attention. The following excerpt is from Volume II of Talks given by John W. Doorly at the OXFORD SUMMER SCHOOL-1949-The Nature of a Christian Science Treatment. Read more »

Divine Theology VERSUS False Theology
For April 2014 we present an Association Address by Clara Armitage Brown CSB (Teacher of Christian Science). In 1967 this Address was given on the subject of Theology . The Bookmark in California recently republished it along with one other of her Addresses. Hard copies can be purchased from The Bookmark.More »

The 1929 Association Address by Frances Thurber Seal
The great basic statement of Christian Science, the Scientific Statement of Being, contains enough truth to redeem man and the universe. This statement understood is the greatest healer the world has ever known since the days of Christ Jesus. For many years I wondered why Mrs. Eddy began this statement with a negative, rather than placing the affirmation first, but I finally came to see that the only thing that necessitated Christian Science or mental healing is the one error, the belief of life, truth, substance and intelligence in matter.

January 2014–The Richard Oakes’ book, “Mary Baker Eddy’s Six Days of Revelation,” we find the following vital information:
“To Mrs. Annie M. Knott, C.S.D., Principle of the Detroit Christian Science Institute, she gave warning that the time might come when medical thought might be so organized that it would make the practice of Christian Science almost impossible.

The remedy given was not the counter power of Christian Science churches, but:”
‘When (that) time comes I want my students to take every means possible to make Science and Health available to the whole world.’ (Quoting Mary Baker Eddy).THE TIME IS NOW, and in response to Mrs. Eddy’s direction above, the Mary Baker Eddy Science Institute and the Christian Science Foundation & Research Library, Cambridge, England, are privileged to share a deep study of “Science and Health With Key to the Scriptures,” narrated on cassette disc by Gordon Brown.

This study will constitute the Mary Baker Eddy Science Institute Lessons for the coming year. The cassette disks are available upon request. We will send out sets of two or three chapters at a time.

Each student will be able to listen at his or her own pace and we will send them out as needed. What follows is an introductory commentary by the Christian Science Foundation and Library, Cambridge England. More »

Revelation being such a current subject we switched the order of the books we are presenting this year. As we think of Revelation it is good to remember Mrs. Eddy's definition of Prophet in The Glossary of "Science and Health" "Prophet: A spiritual seer: disappearance of material sense before the conscious facts of spiritual Truth"

January 2012 – We learned this morning that our planned January 2012 Lesson is delayed for technical reasons. So, the question is, what next? A recent re-reading of "A TALK ON THE BOOK OF HEBREWS", by Peggy Brook, is most enlightening. Thus an excerpt from this "Talk" is what we present here.
