There is something of New Testament Pentecost about The Herald of Christian Science. In the Bible's book of Acts, the account of the apostles gathered from many lands tells of the Gospel being preached in its native Greek, the language commonly spoken at that time, but actually heard by each traveler in his and her own language.

During the nearly one hundred years that the Herald of Christian Science has been published, there have been several multi-language editions, as well as one-time issues that combined more than one language. In the Spring of 2002, a special edition of the Herald was issued to tie in with the World Cup Soccer finals in Japan and Korea, So-Whan Hyon, who lives in Seoul, Korea, and is a member of the Christian Science Society there, tells about how the magazine affected him and others.

While the magazines are generally in languages other than English, the My Herald (for children) and Teen Heralds are published in English as well as other languages.

For years, readers of the various Christian Science magazines in many countries asked for more articles and materials for children. With the Herald team's expanding view of the magazine and its mission to proclaim the availability of Truth to humanity, the editors began to explore the possibility of producing Herald issues for special audiences, including children and teens.
