LUMINOUS WITH INSPIRATION Was it just me, or did other readers notice a halo around the Journal for May 2006? The front cover beckoned us inside to read about "My huggin' church" [p. 14], where we also found exquisite art on pages 11 and 27, gratifying news about The Mother Church's chaplain program, convincing testimonies of spiritual healing, heartfelt articles by experienced students of Christian Science, and simple wisdom from a youthful writer in India.
A BANG OF AN ARTICTLE I certainly thought that I did not believe in the big-bang theory of the universe, but I am so grateful to have read and reread Nathan Talbot's editorial "Beyond the grapefruit" in the February Journal [p. 61].
SQUARE ONE (TIMES ZERO) I especially liked Amy Baker's Square One in the February Journal [p. 7].
SOUL-READING Thank you so much for "Soul-thinking: A conversation with Kiatezua Lubanzadio Luyaluka" in the January Journal [p. 20].

ARMED WITH INSIGHT The August Journal, which was so filled with refreshing inspiration, was to me like the water pouring forth from the rock in the wilderness. Every article seemed to address my every concern and need.
BEYOND PHYSICS I enjoyed very much the article by Jeffrey Hildner "Time, space, matter: Seeing through the grand illusion" [July, p. 44] and his interviews with a physicist and two Christian Scientists.
