Supporting humanity's safe passage into the next century

From the May 1991 issue of The Christian Science Journal


The technology making possible the satellite-transmitted programming of The Monitor Channel (featured on pages 29-30 in this issue) may call to mind Mary Baker Eddy's phrase "useful wonders."

At the beginning of the chapter "Science of Being" in Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, Mrs. Eddy writes: "In the material world, thought has brought to light with great rapidity many useful wonders. With like activity have thought's swift pinions been rising towards the realm of the real, to the spiritual cause of those lower things which give impulse to inquiry."Science and Health, p. 268.

Certainly "great rapidity" would describe the launchings of the new broadcasting activities of the Church of Christ, Scientist, within the past few years! This global publishing activity has the potential to leaven public thought in meaningful ways through presenting problem-solving ideas in education, the arts and sciences, government—in fact, in nearly every realm of human endeavor.
