Activist Christianity—i.e., Christian Science

From the October 1991 issue of The Christian Science Journal


In a book called Growing Up Isn't Hard to Do if You Start Out as a Kid, the author asks kids lots of questions. Then he stands back to see what happens.

For example, the author inquires of Carla, age six, "What is a politician?" Carla replies, "It might be a man who does women's hair and makes it look good."David Heller, Growing Up Isn't Hard to Do if You Start Out as a Kid (New York: Villard Books, 1991), p. 207.

As we think about practicing Christian Science and relying on it for physical healing, we may be surprised to find that, like six-year-old Carla, we, too, have misconceptions to clear away. But as we're willing to do this, we are in a position to go ahead more readily and have what God, divine Mind, makes known to us of the Science of being and its demonstration.
