Christian Scientists are rejoicing that rising in their ranks are young and sturdy spiritual thinkers. Christian Science Sunday Schools and homes are largely responsible for the spiritual education received by these young men and women, many of whom have never known any other concept of existence than that set forth in Christian Science.
It is encouraging and enlightening for us to recall that, although today the activities of Christian Science reach to every quarter of the globe, its discovery is comparatively recent. The Mother Church Sunday School, which was established by Mary Baker Eddy in 1895, and the Sunday schools of its branch churches, since established, have brought large numbers of youthful workers into the activity of the movement.
It should be clear that as Christian Science increasingly unfolds to the so-called human consciousness, there should be less and less distinction made between age and youth and more and more should one see the evidence of God's spiritual man, of whom Mrs. Eddy writes in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" (p. 244), "Man in Science is neither young nor old." This realization must inevitably result in a generation that is freer from the restrictions resulting from the belief in age and more spiritually conscious of God's all-presence and Love's eternally unfolding creation.
