What are the Christian Science Quarterly Bible Lessons?

Bible Lessons consist of selections from the Bible with corresponding passages from Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy, who discovered and founded Christian Science. Science and Health offers a spiritually scientific approach to the Bible to bring renewal and healing. These weekly lessons comprise the Sunday sermon read in Christian Science churches worldwide.

🔹A mother who learned that prayer is not a burden
🔹A sister who turned to God to resolve anger toward her sibling
🔹An individual who looked beyond the physical senses to discern spiritual facts
🔹A woman who realized that God’s wisdom and love guide us even in the most challenging times

Does the name Susan B. Anthony ring a bell? Anthony was an advocate for both abolitionism and women’s suffrage. She also expressed an interest in Christian Science. Anthony wrote to Mary Baker Eddy, the Discover and Founder of Christian Science, on multiple occasions, heard her speak, and owned a copy of Eddy's book, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures. She even took Primary class instruction in Christian Science healing with Eddy’s student, Laura Lathrop. http://ow.ly/uEP550B8L0p

We hear all too often of troubling incidents stemming from racism. Here’s a Christian Science Monitor "Christian Science perspective" audio clip in which a Black woman shares experiences of being confronted with racial slurs and the key role prayer played in healing those situations. (Look for the phrase "To hear Rita’s story," and click the link next to it.)

It can too often seem that racism is a problem too big to heal. But nothing is too big for God, infinite Love, and we can each play a part in demonstrating that.

From sense to Soul my pathway lies before me,
From mist and shadow into Truth's clear day;
The dawn of all things real is breaking o'er me,
My heart is singing: I have found the way.

I reach Mind's open door, and at its portal
I know that where I stand is holy ground;
I feel the calm and joy of things immortal,
The loveliness of Love is all around.

The way leads upward and its goal draws nearer,
Thought soars enraptured, fetterless and free;
The vision infinite to me grows clearer,
I touch the fringes of eternity
.
(The Christian Science Hymnal, No. 64:1–3)
