“Finding joy, health, hope for all”
by Steven Salt, CSB — from St. Louis, Missouri, USA

Sponsored by First Church of Christ, Scientist, Orinda, CA

WHAT IF GOOD IS INEVITABLE? THERE IS A REASON FOR UNSHAKABLE JOY!

Sometimes we can feel that joy seems hard to find––and seems even harder to keep! But what if joy is really fundamental to our nature? What if it is something all of us have permanently?

Christian Science lecturer Steve Salt, CSB, says, “What if we could find the good in life for which our hearts yearn is invulnerable to surrounding events, that it’s never ‘on the line’ for any reason, actually? If there was a way to trust that, and to prove it, that would give us a compelling reason to have hope. Even a reason for unshakeable joy. Christian Science explains the incredible good endowed on us by God–a good all of us deserve and can even expect–all the time.”

Mr. Salt will share how he was healed of mental darkness, and subsequently regained his sense of joy. Through praying with ideas from the Bible and Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy, he was transformed–uplifted by a better understanding of joy as a quality of an all-present, all loving God.

He will also share other healings, thoughts on identity, prayer, and what Jesus taught about joy. And he’ll describe Mary Baker Eddy’s life. She founded Christian Science, wrote Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, and modeled a prayerful approach to life, through good happenings and bad, health and sickness, security and poverty, safety and homelessness–prevailing over all of these obstacles, and helping many others along the way.

“The How, Why and Wonder of Spiritual Healing”
by Beth Packer, CS — from New South Wales, Australia

Sponsored by First Church of Christ, Scientist, San Francisco, CA

Don’t be a victim of circumstance. Learn to live life with dominion!

This lecture explores the phenomena of spiritual healing as recorded throughout the Bible — healing that for centuries had allowed people to live their lives with dominion and not be victims to their circumstances. And it shows by present-day examples, that such healing is not something of the past, but is a present possibility — an accessible transforming power for good in our lives today.

It’s shown how a knowledge of our inseparable relationship to God brings practical healing solutions. Also, how practical, effective prayer can help us all experience divine power and protection in our lives. Included are multiple examples of the practicality of spiritual healing, including protection from an attack, healing of a medically diagnosed ‘incurable’ illness and effects of a severe accident.

“How spiritual perception brings healing”
by Alexandre Fischer, CS — from Paris, France

Members of First Church of Christ, Scientist, Orinda, First Church of Christ, Scientist, Danville, and First Church of Christ, Scientist, Oakland, CA, USA invite you to join us for a live web lecture!

This lecture, or heart-to-heart sharing, will give you an overview of Christian Science, its key principles, a bit of its history, some examples of healings and some clarifications about typical misconceptions.

About the Speaker

I practiced law in France and in the United States for several years. As a litigation lawyer in France, I used to argue cases in court and I did my best to meet my clients needs. Practicing law was not just my job, it was a passion. To me, being a lawyer meant precision in thinking and a desire to help others get out of trouble.

During those legal years, I got more and more interested in Christian Science. At first, I was just impressed by its remarkable healings and resolutions. As I dug deeper, I found a profound spirituality. To me back then, religion and spirituality meant accepting a system of beliefs and the letting go of discernment and critical thinking. But the more I studied and practiced this deep spirituality, the more I found that it was not about believing in anything. It was about exercising critical thinking in understanding spiritual concepts, which in turn could be applied to my life to bring healing.

Gradually, I gave up my law practice and became a full time Christian Science practitioner. I’m not a lawyer anymore, but I still work to help others get out of trouble, to get out of a sense of limitations, to find more freedom. But the way I see it, Christian Science is not just about feeling better or fixing problems. It’s about being willing to challenge one’s world view as entirely molecule-based and soulless, to be open to see the world as spiritually based, and experience how this change in perspective brings inner peace and healing. It is about understanding more clearly our relationship with God, infinite good. It is about understanding Christ Jesus’ message in a non dogmatic way, bringing healing, harmony and freedom to our life.
