Letters & Conversations

Letters to the Journal from our readers. Opinions expressed in this column are not necessarily those of The Christian Science Journal.

OPEN LETTERS

Practical Thoughts It seems to me that we are inclined to cry "peace, peace," while victory still sits perched upon error's banner. We have learned through Science and Health that evil is unreal, i.

NOTES FROM THE FIELD

It has been thought expedient to organize another church in the upper part of New York city, to which Mrs. Laura Lathrop is called as Pastor.

OPEN LETTERS

I want to add my mite to the testimony of those who, through the understanding of Divine Science, ascribe to God the glory for that which has indeed made all things new to them. For several years I have labored with the world's "bread-winners," my chosen field of work that of school teaching.

NOTES FROM THE FIELD

I send you herewith a letter received from one who was (seemingly) led astray through false teaching, and who, as a consequence, has been bitter towards the Journal, but who always read Science and Health together with other, so-called, Christian Science literature. Truly is the Scripture being fulfilled: "Other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.

OPEN LETTERS

I think few of us realize how much Christian Science has done to change our modes of thought, and topics of conversation, until we listen for a few minutes to the conversation of those about us, and find how void, how entirely empty of interest to us, most of the talk is. We feel, even more than we see and hear, the "crying want," which is the companion of material means, and which is so fully supplied and satisfied by Christian Science, when we come to know it and live it.

NOTES FROM THE FIELD

I know  you will be interested to know that my mother is  well and  happy . She has gained so rapidly during the past week,— it is really wonderful.

OPEN LETTERS

About four or five weeks ago, during my absence from home, our house was entered by burglars. Relatives, who were left in charge of the house, were confronted by a man holding a pistol, and demanding money.

NOTES FROM THE FIELD

It is with great pleasure I can assure you our meetings and our views are in line with Science and Health; some of us may be classed as lukewarm, but all are loyal to its teaching, so far as they understand. We belong to the farming class, and, in this sparsely settled country, perhaps, are not subjected to temptation, as in densely populated districts, where, generally, something new is constantly "on the go" to tempt the unstable.

OPEN LETTERS

Extracts from letters to Mary B. G.

NOTES FROM THE FIELD

In answer to the request that our experiences be written for the Journal, I can truly say that I know they are already written on the hearts, and in the memories of the many dear ones, to whom this blessed Truth has come with "healing in its wings," as a sacred thought; and so many times when I have attempted to put it into words, they fail me, for there is a something connected with every case of true healing, that words cannot express. Many and varied are our daily experiences in manifesting the Christ-love to human consciousness.
