The Wednesday evening meetings have about 10-15 minutes of readings chosen by the reader from the Bible and Science and Health, followed by testimonies and comments on Christian Science from people in the congregation. There are also lectures held once or twice a year,which are very helpful for the interested searcher. There are some sample -mini lectures up on Youtube, which you can find by searching for Christian Science Lecture. The lecture given in Edinburgh spring 2013 by Jon Benson called Step out of your Story was a good summary of the thoughtful nature of prayer and healing. A short version of this can be found on Youtube. We intend to have another lecture in March or April 2014 which is open to the public. The announcement will be in the newspaper and on our website: www.christianscience.org.uk/edinburgh Happy Soul-searching.An otherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08368029067251367440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-702498547782657636.post-52454899470669527512013-08-29T09:36:17.549-07:002013-08-29T09:36:17.549-07:00Thanks for your comment, and sorry not to have rep...Thanks for your comment, and sorry not to have replied before now. Somehow I allowed it to slip past my radar. I can see the logic of having a worldwide regimen that keeps everyone reading the same texts; it means you get round them all in time and you're not at the whim of individual clerics. It just seems a bit inflexible, although maybe there are other opportunities during the week for people to discuss it outside the context of the Sunday service.

Many are helped and healed by this lesson. It is impersonal. How often we get wrong advise from ministers couselors who are just learning and growing themselves. My family and I have had many healings over 30 years from our joyful study of the Bible and Science and Health by Mary Baker Eddy. I dont go to Church to be entertained but to learn and share and grow. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
