"Divine Science, rising above physical theories, excludes matter, resolves things into thoughts, and replaces the objects of material sense with spiritual ideas."
(Science and Health, page 123)

Why do our thoughts matter? Because what we think becomes what we experience, what we see. Join us Wednesday at 7:30 pm to hear from the Bible and from Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures on why that is true. Stay to hear examples from our congregation from people right here in Richardson who have proven this in their own lives. Click the image for more.

"It is scientific to rob disease of all reality; and to accomplish this, you cannot begin by admitting its reality." — Mary Baker Eddy
(No and Yes, page 2)

"Man is never sick, because God is never sick; and man is God's image and likeness, the divine manifestation of His presence and power. Man, your true selfhood and mine, is fixed in its divine Principle and enjoys a natural immunity to sin, sickness, and death. This statement cannot be reversed." Click the image for more.

"...If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;"
(John 8:31)

When Jesus called the twelve to be his students, they followed him without hesitation. They knew of his works and could sense his love and authority. This week's Lesson-Sermon deals not just with Jesus' words and works, but particularly with how they apply to us today. It is not merely stories from long ago, but examples of Science at work today.

"Mind is the source of all movement, and there is no inertia to retard or check its perpetual and harmonious action."
(Science and Health, page 283)

How do we stay strong and healthy? Is it through exercise and right eating? Or is it through understanding the power of God, divine Mind? God is the creator of all and maintains us in perfect health and harmony. It is God which moves us. Join us Wednesday evening at 7:30 pm to explore this concept further. Click the image for more.

"...the kingdom is the Lord’s: and he is the governor among the nations."
(Psalm 22:28)

Mind governs all. This is a central fact of Christian Science. One infinite Mind causes, creates, and governs man and all existence. When Solomon asked God for wisdom, he acknowledged only one source of intelligence and power. This was nearly three thousand years ago but the same thing applies today: Turn to God as Mind, and you will see how man reflects these very qualities of wisdom, life, and light.

"To those leaning on the sustaining infinite, to-day is big with blessings."
(Science and Health, page vii)

Are you worried about the future? Are you limited by your past? Or are you living in the present moment, trusting God's ever present care for you right now? Join us Wednesday at 7:30 pm as we explore this idea through passages from the Bible and the writings of Mary Baker Eddy in Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures. Click the image for more.

"Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord, my soul! Click to open the research content...I will sing to my God all my life."
(Psalm 146:1,2)

In Soul, we feel God's presence. In Soul, we see what is true, and are led to the discovery and demonstration of what is real and good. Man, as God's image, every quality of God is seen in man's existence. Soul is the expression of this perfection, an awareness of God's goodness and healing power. As Science and Health puts it: "God is infinite, the only Life, substance, Spirit, or Soul, the only intelligence of the universe, including man." Click the image for more.

"Only through radical reliance on Truth can scientific healing power be realized."
(Science and Health, page 167)

It is so easy in this day and age to turn to material remedies, to follow the rules of diet, exercise, hygiene. Sometimes the temptations are subtle, and we don't even realize where we are putting our faith. Join us Wednesday at 7:30 as our pastor reminds us of the importance of putting our entire faith in God alone. Click the image for more.

"Be still, and know that I am God:"
(Psalm 46:10)

Spirit is all. Christian Science teaches that matter is the supposed opposite of Spirit, and thus has no real existence. Spirit is seen in the knowledge of ourselves as God's children. It is seen in feeling God's presence in every human situation; in the ability to embrace what is good and reject evil; in the healing of disease. Click the image for more.

"The voice of the LORD is powerful..."
(Psalm 29:4)

When you are praying, are you talking or listening? Join us Wednesday at 7:30 to listen to the word of God. Let God do the talking. Click the image for more.

"...the God of love and peace shall be with you."
(II Corinthians 13:11)

God's love for man, His own image, is a fact. The Bible teaches us that God is Love, and this teaching is in this week's Lesson-Sermon. The mission of Jesus was to demonstrate the scope and power of God's love, in healing disease and destroying sin. Mary Baker says in Science and Health: "God is Love. Can we ask Him to be more?" We cannot, for divine Love is the ultimate of existence, health, and perfection. Click the image for more.

"The one Mind, God, contains no mortal opinions."
(Science and Health, page 399)

Do you seem to be plagued by a plethora of different human opinions? Think again. There is only one Mind, and that Mind is God. Come hear how this could possibly be true at 7:30 pm tonight, with readings from our Pastor, and comments from members of the congregation. Click the image for more.

"I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. Click to open the research content. . . Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful."
(Revelation 1:8; 21:5)

Truth is real. Truth is absolute, and this week's Lesson-Sermon teaches God's covenant with his creation to sustain its perfection and immortality. In God's covenant with us we learn, as Mrs. Eddy states in Science and Health, "No wisdom is wise but His wisdom; no truth is true, no love is lovely, no life is Life but the divine; no good is, but the good God bestows."

"...but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world."
(John 16:33)

What is true joy? How do we attain it? Is it a human emotion - sometimes here and sometimes not? Or is at a gift from God? Something we experience because God made us to be joyful. Join us Wednesday night at 7:30 to explore this topic further. Click the image for more.

"This is the way, walk ye in it..."
(Isaiah 30:21)

Is it really possible to change for the better? To drop bad habits? To see ourselves differently? Even after years and years? Of course it is. All it takes is a foundational change in our belief of who we really are as expressions of the infinite, divine Mind. Join us Wednesday at 7:30 pm to hear more on this topic, and to share your own stories of change.

"...ye are my witnesses, saith the Lord, that I am God."

(Isaiah 43:12)

Who is it that speaks? God is Mind, and Mind has all power. It is a healing truth that it is Mind that speaks, and what Mind speaks is Truth. In Psalms we read, "O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me." When Mind communicates to us, these ideas illumine our path and guide every step of our lives. Mind brings to us the Christ, which speaks through the voice of Love. Come join us for this uplifting sermon.

"In him we live, and move, and have our being..."
(Acts 17:28)

What does it mean to live in the kingdom of God? Is it a place? Is it something that we get to after we die? Or is it a state of consciousness that we can claim for ourselves here and now? Join us Wednesday at 7:30 to hear inspiration on this topic from the Bible and Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy. Click the image for more.

"The days are at hand, and the effect of every vision…the word which I have spoken shall be done, saith the Lord God."
(Ezekiel 12: 23, 28)

The Lesson-Sermon on the subject of "Christian Science" tells of the basics of Christian Science treatment, of the nature and purpose of physical healing through metaphysical means, and the overarching mission to destroy sinful beliefs.

“Anatomy, when conceived of spiritually, is mental self-knowledge, and consists in the dissection of thoughts to discover their quality, quantity, and origin.”
(Science and Health, page 462)

Are we physical beings? Do we need to know how all the physical parts of our body work together, and examine each muscle and body part? Or are we spiritual? And do we need to examine instead, each thought to discover its origin and how it might be affecting us? Click the image for more.

"Is not God in the height of heaven? and behold the height of the stars, how high they are! And thou sayest, How doth God know?"
(Job 22: 12,13)

The question of atomic force deals with the supposed existence of matter. Today there are theorized four fundamental forces of matter, from the attraction of the tiniest particles to the gravitational reach across many billions of miles of space. Is man's existence and purpose determined by these forces? In fact, infinite Spirit reigns supreme in our lives, and this week's sermon explains how Christian Science unfolds this spiritual evolution in thought.

"...in Spirit all is harmony, and there can be no discord; all is Life, and there is no death."
(Science and Health, page 331)

Is harmony really supreme? It doesn't look like it. Nations are at war, there is strife in the workplace, in families, in politics. How can we look past this appearance of discord to find the Truth beneath? Join us Wednesday at 7:30 pm to hear words from our pastor, the Bible, and Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy. Click the image for more.

"I will show you my faith by my works."

(James 2:18)

Jesus made plain in his teachings that true devotion is only between you and God. He taught his disciples that true sacrament was atonement, being alone with God and at one with God. Click the image for more.

"He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: … I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it:"
(Ecclesiastes 3:11,14)

Since man is made in God’s image, it follows that God sustains His image without fail. It also follows that God preserves man even in the face of material claims of sin, disease, and death. Click the image for more.

“Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.”
(Mark 12:31)

What is the basis of Christian Fellowship? Is it about getting together with our friends and those who are like us? Or is there a deeper basis, rooted in divine Love?

"…the earth is full of the goodness of the Lord."
(Psalm 33:5)

If God is the only cause and creator, what can we expect of His creation? According to Genesis 1, this creation exhibits perfection of order and beauty, showing only goodness, and sustaining man as His image. The mission of Jesus was to show the way to see and demonstrate man’s eternal existence as the image of Mind, God. Come join us to rejoice in this week’s lesson.

“All is infinite Mind and its infinite manifestation, for God is All-in-all.”
(SH 468:10–11)

The world presents a picture of lack and limitation. But is this reality? What is the source of all goodness? Is it material or spiritual? Is it divine Mind or mortal mind? Is it limited or infinite? Join us Wednesday at 7:30 pm to hear from our pastor about the infinite manifestation of divine Mind. Click the image for more

"Fear not;…No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord."
(Isaiah 54:4,17)

Necromancy is the practice of communication with the dead. It is a false belief with an ancient origin, and is still around today. Our lesson this week shows the connection of necromancy with mesmerism and hypnotism as the belief of life and intelligence in matter. Click the image for more.

"Existence, separate from divinity, Science explains as impossible."
(Science and Health, page 522)

The source of all discord, violence, and disease is the false belief that we are individual bodies of matter separate from each other and separate from God. Healing comes when we recognize that we are not separate, but whole -- one with God and thus one with each other. Click the image for more

"He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: … I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it:"
(Ecclesiastes 3:11,14)

"Let thy work appear unto thy servants, and thy glory unto their children" (Psalm 90). The body is not a material artifact that decays and dies. It is actually a spiritual image, an idea of God, divine Mind. This fact points to a coexistence with God that is not finite, but infinite. God imparts His own qualities of perfection and beauty to man, His own image. What a wonderful truth! Come hear it with us on Sunday.

"...where shall wisdom be found? and where is the place of understanding?...God understandeth the way thereof, and he knoweth the place thereof."
(Job 28:12, 23)

Just last week a popular online publication noted that "...we stand at the threshold of perhaps the most profound identity crisis humanity has ever faced." It suggests that AI technology is ushering in "the twilight of human intellectual supremacy" and is "reshaping not just our economy but our very understanding of what it means to be human beings." Sounds pretty ominous. Click the image for more
