This Series Of Articles will be unusual in a number of ways. First of all, its roots can be found in a statement from the Christian Science Board of Directors in the June 2006 Journal and in extensive discussions among members of the Board over the last several years.
All five Board members will be contributing articles to the series, along with a few other officers and senior managers of The Mother Church. The series will be initiated in January by a message from the Board and a listing of the authors and topics to be found each month beginning in February.
Also, the series comes at what many feel is a rather unusual time—a time of sizeable challenges that are no longer confined to distant regions, but are worldwide in scope. The world clearly needs now the focused prayer and healing that flows out from a renewed, vital, and unified Christian Science movement.
