"Satan came also"

From the August 1973 issue of The Christian Science Journal


If you attend Wednesday testimony meetings in a Church of Christ, Scientist, are you often disturbed by the feeling that these services could be improved?

Are you irritated or depressed by the thought that more testimonies should be given—or that the ones given should include more specific healings instead of so much metaphysical talk—or that the ones given usually contain too many details of experiences and not enough spiritual truths? Does it worry you that there are those who testify more than they should and others who hardly ever testify but should? Are you apprehensive about the effect of these services on young people and visitors?

Most people who attend the testimony meetings have surely felt troubled occasionally. They want them to be inspired and effective. They want the walls of the church to ring with praises to God for the glorious blessings received as a result of the application of Christian Science.
