Testimonies of Healing

Verification of Healings

These healings are verified by people who can vouch for the testifier or who know of the healing. Examples of Christian healing from individuals and families around the world have been published in the Christian Science periodicals for well over 125 years.

Quickly freed from pain and immobility

Incapacitating pain in leg and hip along with the fear and despair that accompanied the pain healed when she saw she expressed God's law of harmony

I couldn’t be “hard-hearted”

Abnormal heartbeat healed after resentment over being called "hard-hearted" overcome

Knee healed after auto accident

Someone hit by a car healed of a knee injury after truly grasping that the accident never happened

Two significant healings

Family brought into Christian Science through the restoration of their child's sight, foot healed after washing machine fell on it

Prayer restores normal blood pressure

Elevated blood pressure brought back to normal by handling fear of risk and belief in heredity

One healing led to another

Loss of hearing in both ears healed by recognizing hearing isn't a faculty of physical ears, injured foot by recognizing movement isn't within physical feet

Infection quickly gone

Many years ago, when I was wading through some seaweed in the water at the beach, my foot was cut just below the ankle—probably by a large broken seashell. There was no convenient place to clean the deep wound that was bleeding profusely, so I wrapped up the foot with my T-shirt and had my girlfriend (now my wife) drive me home.

Inseparable from God

Last spring, I was due to fly out on a Friday morning to attend my annual Christian Science students’ association meeting. That Monday, when I got out of bed, my back was out of joint.

Bouts of anxiety healed

As someone who has consistently set high bars for achievement and worked tirelessly to reach certain goals, I’ve been grateful to have found success in various professional, athletic, and personal pursuits. But a sense of accomplishment has often been short-lived and accompanied by a nagging sense of “not quite good enough.

Injured finger healed

A couple of years ago, while some men were working in my home, I was cleaning a piece of equipment they were to move. Unwisely, I did this while its motor was running, and one of my fingers got caught in the mechanism and pinned between a fast-moving belt and some gears.
