This month's featured article
HELP WITH ANXIETY?
"That feeling of being overwhelmed by nerves and fear broke apart and dissolved. The deepest peace I'd ever felt settled over me."
In this article, from the Christian Science Sentinel, Jenny Sawyer recounts how she overcame feelings of sadness, fearful thoughts and anxiety by changing her own thinking to imagine how she would pray to help a friend struggling with the same issues. She became convinced that aniety could never control her "friend" and stopped herself thinking any negative or fearful thoughts about the "friend". We are all the image and likeness of God and since God does not suffer from anxiety, neither do we.
About us...
We are a small oasis of peace in the city of Haarlem where you can come to read and study the Bible and Christian Science texts, sit quietly to pray, drink coffee or discuss aspects of Christian healing. We also hold weekly Christian Science church services each Sunday morning and on the 4th Wednesday of each month in the evening.
What is Christian Science?
Christian Science is a way to use the teachings of Christ Jesus and Bible texts to heal and transform people's lives through prayer
How was Christian Science discovered?
Christian Science was discovered by Mary Baker Eddy, more than 100 years ago. She developed the laws of Christian Science after being healed of critical injuries. Through her study of the Bible, she rediscovered the same healing techniques used by Jesus.
Does Christian Science work?
There are many tens of thousands of documented and verified healings published. Everything from broken bones to cancer, panic attacks to mental illness; but also finding work, improving personal finances and improving self-esteem.
“ God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. ”
