Teach the children

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!

    “Parents should teach their children at the earliest possible period the truths of health and holiness” (S & H, p. 236:23-25) – Citation #5

    “May 5, 1907. Mr. G.H.K. repeated from Mrs. E.: The way I would teach a child to learn the Bible would be to teach her to love it, and then she would go to the Bible to read it for her own entertainment. I would also tell her the Bible in story fashion; it will stick to the memory that way, and she will become interested to look it up for herself. I would preferably confine myself to the New Testament for a child; but the Old is good, too” (the “Blue Book” – p. 30).
