Whether you're a Christian Scientist searching for answers or a former follower still struggling to let go of the difficult and confusing teachings of Christian Science, this book can help you on your search for truth. In these ten intensely personal narratives, former Christian Scientists bravely recount their journey out of the religion and into authentic, biblical faith in Jesus Christ. Each chapter addresses a different theme, shining light on theological inconsistencies taught by Mary Baker Eddy in her book Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures. These themes include matter, Jesus Christ, contagion, prayer, and sin. With reflection questions, pastoral teaching, related Bible verses, and a guiding letter from the author, each story navigates common obstacles and paves the way for a deeper understanding of the Christian faith. For those yearning to find truth, there is hope to be found here.

Book Description
This book uncovers Mary Baker Eddys skill in seizing upon images of comparison to clarify her religious perspectives. Metaphors reveal her knowledge of nature and the arts, war and courtrooms, cities and towns, the home and farm environment, and the modern inventions of her day, nineteenth century America. What did Jesus, among others, and Mary Baker Eddy, see in teaching by parable, allegory, and metaphor? This book is not a biography, but sheds light on Eddy as a person you will want to get to know. Seeing her through her metaphors will complement the insights that the biographies supply. This book will renew your appreciation of metaphors which use objects, persons, and places to convey spiritual ideas, moving us from known specifics to unknown abstractions. Jesus chose language specifically targeting his audience, the likes of farmers, shepherds, and fishermen. Eddy in turn targeted her audience of consumers and merchants. All her symbols were well known in the nineteenth century. The excerpts are drawn from the Bible, Eddys writings, and the Christian Science Hymnal. As author and compiler, I am sure you will gain much from the read. What a treat!

Book Description
Excerpt from Christian Science in the Light of Reason An objection not unfrequently urged to works of this kind is that they are iconoclastic - negative and destructive in character, rather than affirmative - constructive. For the purpose of discrediting such work is sometimes invoked the maxim, Build your own house, but don't pull down your neigh bor's. But one is not engaged in destroying his neighbor's individual structure who simply addresses him through the ordinary channels of information, calling attention to the unsanitary and dangerous character of materials being imposed on the building public. If he kindly and courteously give his reasons for discrediting certain types of houses and certain brands of material, leaving it entirely optionary with each individual whether to heed or ignore his sug gestions, the maxim is irrelevant, because it fails at the very point of analogy; viz., imposition, constraint.

Book Description
Excerpt from Christian Science in the Light of Holy Scripture If it did not come in the name of Christ, quote the Bible, use Christian nomenclature, and profess to be the faith once delivered to the saints, I would have paid no more attention to it than to other false religions of the earth. But just because it does come in the name of Christ, teaches in His name - and yet - denies all for which that name stands in Holy Writ; because it exalts a false Christ and preaches a false Christianity, I have sent forth this testimony of warning.
