About This Book

A collection of essays, sermons, addresses and letters articulates the theology, ethics, and practical methods of Christian Science, blending spiritual metaphysics with guidance for healing and church governance. It ranges from concise epigrams and prefatory reflections to detailed answers to students' questions, public addresses, and pastoral letters, and includes instruction on prayer, mental practice, and moral conduct. The writings emphasize a spiritual cause-and-effect view, a Scriptural interpretation grounded in spiritual law, and the application of those principles to personal reform, communal practice, and the responsibilities of students and congregations.

About the Author

Mary Baker Eddy

Mary Baker Eddy (1821-1910) was an American religious leader and the founder of Christian Science, a spiritual movement that emphasizes healing through prayer and the study of the Bible. She is best known for her seminal work, "Science and Health, with Key to the Scriptures," which outlines her theological principles and healing practices. Eddy's writings, including "Miscellaneous Writings" and "Retrospection and Introspection," reflect her deep engagement with spirituality and metaphysics. Her influence extended beyond religion, impacting health and wellness practices in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Eddy's legacy continues to shape discussions on faith, healing, and the relationship between mind and body.
