We hear everywhere of the challenges of this moment. Civil chaos, mental health issues and climate or pandemic-related social and economic worries dominate the news. Some are asking, “Is there a lasting, healing solution to these challenges?”

As far back as Biblical times and during Jesus’ ministry these have been issues of concern–and practical transformative prayer brought healing. This lecture will share through modern and Biblical examples why it is realistic to have a trusting expectation of good. It discusses ideas from the unique perspective Christian Science brings–a Science based on divine laws of good.

About Alison:

Exploring the meaning of Bible stories has always meant a lot to Alison. She has found this deep exploration of the Bible has opened up spiritual insights into how applicable these ideas are today for our world, whatever challenges we’re facing. She has a deep interest in faith and its role in community life and has been an active member of a local interfaith network that included individuals from many world faiths.

She’s increasingly found each step of her career and spiritual journey has opened up new views of how God’s loving care for each one of us provides hope for our world today. This is what she wants to share as a Christian Science lecturer.
