From Time4Thinkers:

“What do you love most about Christian Science?” is a question we asked participants at the recent TMC Youth Summit in Hamburg, Germany.  We didn’t just hear “What Christian Science has done for me” but how students are living and sharing Christian Science as a universal teaching that belongs to everyone.  We also heard some inspiring examples of healing, including how two infants’ lives were forever changed by Christian Science after being abandoned at birth.  Check out the video and let us know what YOU love most about Christian Science.  And if you’d like to be a part of this global church community, visit christianscience.com/membership to find out how.  You can also download a membership application and email it in today!

]]> 62 “Uplifted thoughts take us beyond self-pity to healing.” https://christiansciencesacramentovalley.org/2012/07/18/uplifted-thoughts-take-us-beyond-self-pity-to-healing/ Thu, 19 Jul 2012 01:44:14 +0000 http://sacramentochurches.sharethepractice.org/?p=55 The genesis of this article is a little protracted. I originally sat down to write a sort of treatise on the value of never complaining. It had become clear to me in my study of Christian Science that a human tendency to find things to complain about can keep someone from grasping truth wholeheartedly. I had been particularly adept at doing just that, and I wanted to share my insight with others.

So I set out my new-found understanding that I could only entertain joy and love if my thinking was not in “complaint mode.” However, along the way, the article took on too much of an accusatorial tone and its language lacked compassion. In making a metaphysical argument it is easy forget that one is not going to have much of an audience if entreaties to “rise higher mentally” lack love. Net result: The article needed a rewrite.
