"HOW can I progress most rapidly in the understanding of Christian Science?" This question, found on page 495 of the textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, is doubtless in the thought of many a seeker for Truth who has learned that Christian Science is the promised Comforter. Perhaps this plea is most pressing for those who, quite alone, wait for an increased measure of true understanding and for those who are in localities where strengthening associations with other Scientists are rare.
The textbook propounds the above query and deals with it, starting off with this counsel: "Study thoroughly the letter and imbibe the spirit." This precept was tendered with the full understanding that provision for this study would always be available in the most direct and helpful form.
We find one means for inspired study in our weekly Bible Lessons, which are published regularly in the Christian Science Quarterly. When we study and become imbued with the spirit of each of these lucid Lesson-Sermons and daily demonstrate this spirit, our thoughts are brought into at-one-ment with our Maker and with all true Christly thinking.
