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!

Thanks, Pam. Recently, I learned that same lesson. I opened the door just a crack to the material world, and got clobbered, as it took me for a ride. Which was all good as it helped me to choose to stay on the straight and narrow.

In the blue book, Notes on Mary Baker Eddy’s Course in Divinity, etc. On pg. 158, Mrs. Eddy writes: “For every material sacrifice there is a spiritual blessing. Right desire is the deepest form of prayer.”
