A CONVERSATION WITH RON BALLARD

HEALING RULES

From the November 2008 issue of The Christian Science Journal


"My life started out pretty mediocre," told me when we e–mailed each other recently. "I was an average kind of person. But my family believed deeply that human life could mirror the excellence intrinsic to spiritual reality. So at every turn, whether it was academically, athletically, or socially, I felt energized by a more unrestricted expectancy—the expectancy to live the infinite nature of the divine. When it came time to take up a life practice, the public healing practice of Christian Science was a natural choice. How could I not share with others what had been so freeing to me!"

As a Christian Science practitioner, teacher, and lecturer, Ron has had plenty of opportunities to share the gospel—the good news of a totally practical and operative Christianity. He shares some of his insights in our following conversation. He explains how you can tap into the clear rules of the Bible–based system of healing that Mary Baker Eddy uncovered only 142 years ago—and experience transformation, harmony, and freedom.

Ron, we worked together on an article for the Journal about the environment last year [April 2007], but I don't think I know how you became a Christian Scientist.
