O glorious hope! there remaineth a rest for the righteous, 

a rest in Christ, a peace in Love. 

The thought of it stills complaint; 

the heaving surf of life’s troubled sea foams itself away, 

and underneath is a deep-settled calm.
(Message to The Mother Church for 1902, Mary Baker Eddy, p. 19)

Spiritual healing: Seeing what is already there

The doctor said she had a calcified shoulder that would take from 12 to 18 months to get better
and would require a variety of treatments in the meantime.
That’s when Anita decided to try what she’d learned about growing up: Christian Science.

Join us via Zoom to listen to this week’s Sentinel Watch program

 
(NOTE: The current and past Sentinel Watch programs are always available online.)
     
This week’s  Christian Science Sentinel print edition explains overcoming temptations, praying about climate change and how the prayer of a hymn brings calm during a storm,  finding peace and calm amid political upheavel, listen to a new musical setting for the well-known Christian hymn text “Abide with me”, and hear testimonies of recent spiritual healing.  (All articles are available in audio format.)

Spiritual peacemaking
Does not focus on conflict
Spiritual peacemaking
Begins with the allness of God.
