These days there is a lot of rethinking going on. A revitalized recognition of the significance of the Science of Christ for the whole community compels this rethinking. Many branch church memberships are beginning to recognize that the health and vitality of their churches is directly linked to the degree of active spiritual purpose they are demonstrating in the community.
