Christian Science

Christian Science is a religious movement founded in the late 19th century by Mary Baker Eddy. It emphasizes the belief that spiritual reality is the true reality, and that the material world—including sickness and death—is ultimately an illusion or a mistaken perception. Followers seek healing and guidance primarily through prayer and understanding of God’s spiritual laws, as taught in Eddy’s book Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, rather than relying on medical interventions. Christian Science places a strong focus on the study of the Bible alongside Eddy’s writings and encourages adherents to live in alignment with divine principles to experience spiritual and physical well-being.

And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth.  Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen.

-Matthew 28:18-20
