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.

Quick healing of severe headache

Learning about healing in Christian Science was an important part of my Sunday School years. With the Bible and the Christian Science textbook, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy, as study guides, we students were taught how to pray, and that we would find the answer to every problem by turning to God.

Reading Science and Health heals long-standing infection

The winter of 2022 was extremely bleak for me. Within a short time, three family members and a good friend passed away.

Recognition of Christ brings quick healing

I am deeply grateful for Jesus’ example, his expression of love, compassion, tenderness, spiritual clarity, and most of all, for his understanding of God, which enabled him to teach, preach, and heal with tremendous authority. Mary Baker Eddy, the Founder of The Church of Christ, Scientist, explained Jesus’ words and works—his demonstrations of the healing Christ, the true idea of God—in such an inspired way throughout her textbook, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures.

Walking freely after foot injury

In my yard there is a mango tree. In the summer of 2021, it yielded so many mangoes that one of the branches split from the weight.

Confidence found, child’s cough gone

When our son was in grade school, he had periods of dry coughing. These instances came at different times of the year and for no apparent reason, as he seemed to be in perfect health otherwise.

Trust in God heals paralysis

Several years ago, I awoke one morning feeling very strange and realized that one side of my body was paralyzed. However, I knew from past experience that I could be healed through prayer.

Prayer overcomes panic and heals menopause symptoms

As a child attending a Christian Science Sunday School, I learned that God is a reliable source of help, but I never knew that the hymns we sang would be prayers when I needed them. I realized this when my dad signed me up for flying lessons the summer that I turned sixteen.

Persistent sore healed

In September of 2001, when I had recently retired from teaching, the branch Church of Christ, Scientist, where I was a member was holding elections for First and Second Reader. While church members are free to withdraw their names from the eligibility list, it had always been my practice to keep my name on the list for Readers and other church officers.

Wasp sting proved harmless

When this author was stung by a wasp, she was led to pray for the world. Her prayers had a healing effect.

Worthy of God’s love

When I walked across the street from my house into a Church of Christ, Scientist, for the first time, I was greeted with love. It was love that kept me coming back, because I had felt broken and unlovable up until that point.
