Lesson Application Ideas From 2018
- Learn how to "sing a new song" to God every day!
Monday, December 31st, 2018
What is this new "song" that we are to sing? Newness and gratitude are key to a lot of things when we are searching for progress in our lives. I've often heard people wonder aloud why it is that newcomers to Christian Science often seem to have so many impressive healings, while those of us who are "lifers" struggle... - W's Post Scripts: See New Jerusalem!

Monday, December 24th, 2018
The Bible Lesson on “Christian Science” during Christmas week is a perfect gift, timeless and universal. It is a reminder of the open secret that Christ is here with us, to comfort, guard and guide. This week’s lesson describes how we can all prepare ourselves to receive Christ truth. Christ is our awareness of... - W's Post Scripts: Let Love Lead the Way to Your Gift that Keeps on Giving!

Monday, December 17th, 2018
If we’re not careful, we can get duped into believing that we are — at least sometimes — subject to the ever-changing, constantly evolving conditions of matter. Understanding that God created all things and that “he made man a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour” (B4)... - W's Post Scripts: Sort out and end mixed-up messes!

Monday, December 10th, 2018
Would you say you feel safe? The media is constantly reporting dangers of every sort. When confronted with danger, where do you turn? Right off the top of our heads, many of us would say we turn to God. But there are others who aren’t so sure, and even those who’d like to think they’d turn to God, might be... - Welcome new inspiration at www.hymnstream.com !

Monday, December 3rd, 2018
We no longer will be held hostage to a material world’s view of cause and creator. We will begin to practically accept what God’s Truth is regarding life and its prospects! The norm will not be babies dying, old folks struggling. We will expect to live as long as trees and God will answer, we will not work in... - Apply this lesson: Seize new views of yourself as God made and maintains you!

Monday, November 26th, 2018
As I approached the study of this week's lesson I realized I had a less than thoroughly clear understanding of what is meant by "necromancy".

Tuesday, November 20th, 2018
The Golden Text and Responsive Reading introduce the theme of gratitude, but, at least to me, they also highlight a theme of unity. Our gratitude unifies us. We are “called in one body” to be thankful. We are drawn together with lovingkindness, brought from the “north country,” gathered from the “coasts of... - Discover your unlimited nature as the temple of God — the reflection of Soul!
Monday, November 19th, 2018
This week’s lesson makes the relationship of Soul and body very clear. Soul is Spirit, and the source of identity. Soul is never in a material body! Matter, which can be thought of as a false, limited sense of being, is a counterfeit and has no life, truth, intelligence nor substance to it. Rather than our identity... - Give the world convincing proof of the validity of the scientific statement of being!

Monday, November 12th, 2018
Have you ever felt the need to be transformed? Most of us have from time to time. The Golden Text refers to what is perhaps the most significant transformation of all. Some may feel this particular change is unattainable or even fantasy. The Apostle Paul didn’t think so. He’s talking about exchanging a... - Finally Connect to a Poem & a Monologue for this week's Lesson!

Monday, November 5th, 2018
Have you ever visited a fun house? The kind of place you find at a fair or carnival? In particular the place where they have distortion mirrors.

That’s all God Gives Creation!
Monday, October 29th, 2018
When we are sinning, missing the mark, willfully ignoring God's call to right doing, we suffer. This suffering continues until we turn away from the wrongdoing with our whole hearts and recognize the man that Jesus best illustrated for all time—the Christ man. To this man, sin is utterly foreign. This is the man... - Find punishment (expunged by flood-tides of Love) to be never-lasting

Monday, October 22nd, 2018
As I studied this week’s Lesson I was struck by why we do not need to — and must not — fear death. References to sheep and Shepherd, including the 23rd Psalm, run throughout. God is Life and the light of Life is ever-present. Thus, the darkness of death (which can come in a variety of forms) is as powerless as a... - Persistently Affirm that All, ALL is Well!

Monday, October 8th, 2018
This week’s Bible lesson is all about waking up and discovering that we do not need to linger in dreamland when there is great good just waiting for us. The wake-up call in this Lesson is not just about getting out of bed and embracing the day, it is about a much more significant wake-up call. A wake-up call to rise... - Say NO WAY to nightmares' reality! Make Your Own the Master’s Decision and Salvation!
