Testimonies of Healing
I first read the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, out of curiosity.

About three years ago I had a beautiful healing of a broken arm entirely through the power of Truth, as we are taught to apply it in our textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by our dear Leader, Mary Baker Eddy.
