Spiritualizing our concept of communication

Mind Speaks

From the May 1976 issue of The Christian Science Journal


The task of speaking or reading in public can present a great challenge. The inexperienced speaker may be hindered by the belief that his voice is inadequate for public speaking. Yet he may desire to speak well in order to extend the range of his business activity or his participation in the activities of his church.

Christian Science reveals that the healing Christ, the spiritual idea of sonship, is fully adequate to meet speech difficulties. The requisite qualities are spiritual and God-derived, not material and personal. They are presently available and can be demonstrated by individuals.

Of course, lessons in public speaking can be useful, and suitable practice is undoubtedly wise. Beyond these steps Christian Science provides the divine remedy to meet speech needs and problems. Christian Science reveals that in reality God, divine Mind, is the only communicator and that individual, spiritual man reflects God's power of self-expression. Understanding this truth enables us to speak effectively.
