The Bulletin Board is for gratitude for Christian Science and the Church, as well as timely excerpts from the Bible, the works of Mrs. Eddy, and the early workers that help and encourage. We are very grateful for all posts that conform to these guidelines, but will edit or remove anything that the Practitioners feel is not in complete accord with pure Christian Science or in any way disrespectful of it.

We also ask that you keep your postings as concise as possible. If you quote the Bible, please use The King James Version, as this is what Mrs. Eddy used. Thank you!

At our Roundtable we reviewed how excuses interfere with our growth. I realized that excuses can used to avoid the discomfort of the burning process. It was helpful to review this habit that takes us off the path.
A article titled, Alibis and Excuses can be found in Addresses by Martha Wilcox in the Chapter titled, Definition of Intelligence.

Some of the things I have learned here that I am grateful for are: excuses are intolerable, don’t judge, no comparisons, don’t complain, honesty heals, watch ruts, keep moving on, make a covenant with God. I can’t imagine, anymore, going over this once a year such as association now that I have seen the blessings in my life of these weekly classes.
