Christian Science is a religion. It was discovered and founded by Mary Baker Eddy. Christian Science is based on the words and works of Christ Jesus, who taught humanity the true meaning of Love. One of the two foundations for healing. Thus, the center or heart of this Christian based religion is Love and about feeling and understanding God’s love for each of and seeing that in all humanity.
Christian Science is a prayer-based healing process, practiced and studied by individuals around the globe. It can help you as it helps them. Here are some examples of what people in the Raleigh area have said about why they love and appreciate Christian Science

Prayer is a common practice in many religions and is often used as a way to communicate with a higher power as Christ did, thus effecting a healing of some kind. Also to seek guidance, or express gratitude. It can also be a way to connect with others in a community of faith and to find comfort and support and encouragement during challenging times.
Mary Baker Eddy organized her "to commemorate the word and works of our Master, which should (1) reinstate primitive Christianity and (2) its lost element of healing.” (From the Church Manual, p. 17. TO be an effective prayer-based healer, you must Love in a true Christianly manner and study spiritual prayer-based healing as found in the study of Christian Science.
Mary Baker Eddy (July 16, 1821- December 3, 1910) An American religious leader and author who founded the Church of Christ, Scientist in America in 1879. She was raised in a Puritan home and loved and studied the Bible. Throughout her life, in the 1800's and early 1900's. She questioned conventional views about science, theology, and medicine and of that day and continually searched the Bible for answers. One overarching question she sought to answer was: How was Christ Jesus able to heal the sick? She found the answer in 1866 when she prayed and had a healing from a severe fall. Reading one of Jesus’ healings, she found herself well. Eddy could not explain to others what had happened, but she knew it was the result of what she had read and prayed about in the Bible. Over the next years she continued intensive scriptural study and this led to her discovery that there is a spiritual “science” that underlies the universe, the laws of which can be relied on for healing today as they have been throughout eternity. She became a public speaker, teacher, and bestselling author. She founded a college for teaching Christian Science healing, an international church, and multiple publications, including the award-winning newspaper, The Christian Science Monitor.
It’s up to each person who practices Christian Science to choose the form of health care he or she wants. Many Christian Scientists decide to pray first about every challenge –including health issues – and find it effective and it works. Many healthcare professionals today are recognizing options outside of conventional medicine. Some even encourage prayer and some level of spiriatual awarness. And in Mary Baker Eddys' day medicine was almost barbaric, just look at images of medical practices on the battlefield during the Civil War. Christian Scientists recognize and respect the interests of medical professionals and don’t oppose them. We all care about the preventive and curative aspects of health care. Like all systems of healing, the track record for Christian Science isn’t perfect. Yet, over 100,000 Christian Science healings have been given at Wednesday prayer healing and Testimony meetings or published in through the Christian Science Publishing Society for over 125 years. Some of these healings including cancer, broken bones, diabetes, smoking, and countless other problems were healed using this love centered prayer. Christian Scientists are not forbidden to seek medical treatment. This is false perception that many have about Christian Science.
