The future of Christian Science

Have you ever wondered about the future of Christian Science?  

I address some of the concerns people have about where Christian Science is headed in an article published in the Christian Science Sentinel, June 23, 2025, titled, “Christian Science is here to stay.”

  1. Thank you very much for this article, Evan – I read it yesterday and it is so good, and essential for us to
    understand and acknowledge. I recommend it to
    everyone. Yes, we can know that Christian Science cannot fade out and be blotted out by materialism –
    it is, as Evan explains, :Here to stay”. Evan says it
    all.

  2. A very important, historically accurate and spiritually instructive article. Thank you very much, Evan, for writing and sharing it. Healing will continue unabated because God and His omnipotent Love continues. We have so much to be grateful for.

  3. Thank you for this Evan.
    Christian Science is the law of God. Nothing can change that.
    The world’s misperception of Christian Science and maybe some church members cannot alter that fact.
    Thank you for your article Evan. Very much needed

  4. I really appreciate this post Evan – because It reminds me that although our society currently might be blinded by materialsm it is a phase like all others….and the age of enlightenment comes after darkness….I really love the LONG TERM perspective you share here on the eternal revelation of MBE’s teachings!

  5. Oh, Yes, Thank You, Evan,
    God, reflected by good, Truth , Life and Love, ever has been and ever will be, here and everywhere.
    Thank God!

  6. Thank you, Evan !! I love this article.! Your articles are always so helpful.. I already recommended it to many !!

  7. Much needed and clear statements about Christian Science Evan…I read it the other day and felt its authoritative truth is much needed. So thank you. Even a little spiritual truth seems to stay with us , waiting for the next revealing moment. Divine Science and its revelation to man is just unstoppable .Let’s share the leaven wherever whenever and with whom ever we can❣️

  8. Thank you Evan. I read it yesterday . Many wonderful ideas to embrace and practice. As there are in your SV every day.

  9. There is no panic in Love, no matter earlier days Cs or today in 2025. thank you Evan for
    Being a keeper and soldier of the Spirit.
    Blessings to all “ seekers of Truth “

  10. Yessssssssssss!!!!

    Straight out from Truth and Love,
    our Wonderful (true) Mind!

    Thank You, and for your clear reflection: Evan!

  11. Following on from Evan’s observation of some of the early Greek belief systems,this is just like the belief in a “flat” earth in more recent times. Based on what presents to the material senses, humanity now knows not to rely on these same physical senses for truth. However, just as the once called “Flat Earth Society” continued to exist long after humanity had more generally accepted the truth about the earth, the solar system and our relationship to these, so there will continue to be those who insist that “Christian Science is shrinking…”. This is almost a direct echo of Mrs Eddy’s own sttement: “…the higher Truth lifts her voice, the louder will error scream, until its inarticulate sound is forever silenced in oblivion.” (S&H 97:22).

    Although Evan has touched on the difference between “belief systems” and “eternal laws” and there is no start date for the latter, yet we discover them step-by-step. So this year marks 150years since the first publication of the Christian Science textbook which recorded these eternal laws in applicable form for humanity today.

    Thank you for the timely reminder, Evan

  12. Thank you Evan for an excellent article. The world would appear to be steeped in materialism…which can feel deeply unsettling and superficial – as with all things mortal/carnal/temporal. Also ever-changing and cyclical. I don’t necessarily see church closings as a sign that religion is dead. I see various religions alive and seemingly well with an online presence on Instagram, Facebook and YouTube. There is definitely a wonderful sense of community here on SV. And Christian Science YouTube lectures reach thousands of people 24/7, compared to possibly a brick and mortar setting. The power of the Christ (an awareness of our inseparability from God) will always find a way to reach hungering hearts.
