When I’m driving to my local Church of Christ, Scientist, on a Sunday morning, I’m filled with gratitude. I know that God’s divine grace permeates every part of the church service.
One of the things I like to do during the drive is to think about the “Present Order of Services in The Mother Church and Branch Churches” as described by Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, on page 120 of the Manual of The Mother Church. It so clearly sets forth the purpose of each activity to bless the congregation.
Lately, I’ve been thinking about and deeply valuing the healing ideas expressed in the Explanatory Note. This is the text found on page two of the Christian Science Quarterly.
