Discussion of Annual Meeting and its theme: Church: ‘Healing and saving the world’*
Live audio chat with the Christian Science Board of Directors
In this chat from April 26, 2016, the Christian Science Board of Directors answered questions like: What is the healing light of the world? Why is it important to pray so much? And, as members of the Board, can you share your own prayers for the world? The Board responded to these questions and more by turning to the Bible and the writings of Mary Baker Eddy for inspiration and guidance.
