Tamsin, Andrew, Airlie: Tell me about how you formed as a musical group and why you got started. Tamsin: We have known each other since school days together.

God’s complete sovereignty is one of the reigning themes of the Bible. In few places is this life-changing fact more compelling and powerfully told than in the book of Daniel.

The day after I graduated from college in the Midwest, I went on a road trip to California with college friends. The sporty-looking car was very little! Every inch of the trunk and the backseat was packed, leaving only a little room on the backseat for one person.

No matter what our profession or vocation—fishing, athletics, exploring, or working in an office—each of us can rely on divine Mind for perception, courage, dedication, and intuition. As Mary Baker Eddy writes, “To those leaning on the sustaining infinite, to-day is big with blessings” (Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, p.
