Progress: publicity? Or prayer and proofs?

From the May 1982 issue of The Christian Science Journal


How can we best advance the Cause of Christian Science in the world? And in our own community? Such questions are prompting a great deal of prayerful searching on the part of those who love Christian Science and yearn to share it more widely.

Nobody has ever sought the answers more earnestly, or seen them more vividly, than the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, Mary Baker Eddy. Nobody else has grasped so thoroughly the implications of this Science of Christ in its impact on human thinking. And nobody else has recognized with such clarity and accuracy, from the standpoint of Christian metaphysics, the reaction of the human mind (both positive and negative) to this impact of Truth on mortal illusions.

Plainly, the encounter between the revealed Science of Spirit and the material-mindedness of mortals takes place at levels much deeper than mere surface opinions or attitudes. This Science penetrates to the bottom of the most fixed and cherished human convictions. It challenges their very foundation: the hypothesis that there is real life and intelligence in matter.
