Have you ever thought that meekness might be an antidote to violence? This week’s guest, George Nutwell, has come to realize that the kind of meekness Jesus lived was the strength by which he defeated and overcame violence. Listen in as George shares with host Tony Lobl how we can live this meekness, too.

Hear George share highlights of this talk in a Daily Lift interview titled: I Forgive You and I Love You.
A Daily Lift by Deborah Huebsch, a Christian Science practitioner and teacher.
In this brief podcast Deborah relates how one of her beloved horses was diagnosed with an incurable kidney condition. She describes how she prayed and how this passage from Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy helped her. Three months later the vet announced that there was no longer any trace of this condition.
The effect of this Science is to stir the human mind to a change of base, on which it may yield to the harmony of the divine Mind. p162
.. God does not show favoritism. (The Bible NLT – Romans 2: 11)
God is no respecter of persons: … but in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him. (The Bible KJV – Acts 10: 34, 35)
There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: (The Bible KJV – Galatians 3: 28)
A Daily Lift by Judy Olson, a Christian Science practitioner and teacher.

In this brief podcast Judy tells how she was cautioned by a well meaning friend with the old saying: “Don’t be so heavenly minded that you are no earthly good”. She explains how, when she thought about this, she realised that the more heavenly minded she was then the more use she was to the world. She gives a beautiful example of this in her own life.

If God really is all good and omnipresent, then where did evil come from and how can it exist?
An interview with John Biggs
In this podcast John talks about how a new hobby of his – learning magic card tricks – gave him an insight into how spiritual healing happens. He explains that he leaned that in card tricks the audience believes they see something that wasn’t there or didn’t happen because they become distracted from the truth of what is happening by the performance. Healing in Christian Science is not magic but when we are distracted by an inharmonious situation we are blinded to the truth of what is really happening. Being alert to the distraction and focussing on the spiritual truth allows us to experience the true harmony of any situation. In this interview John explains this fully and gives examples of his own healings.
The magnitude of Jesus’ work, his material disappearance before their eyes and his reappearance, all enabled the disciples to understand what Jesus had said. Heretofore they had only believed; now they understood. The advent of this understanding is what is meant by the descent of the Holy Ghost, — that influx of divine Science which so illuminated the Pentecostal Day and is now repeating its ancient history.
Jesus’ last proof was the highest, the most convincing, the most profitable to his students. The malignity of brutal persecutors, the treason and suicide of his betrayer, were overruled by divine Love to the glorification of the man and of the true idea of God, which Jesus’ persecutors had mocked and tried to slay. The final demonstration of the truth which Jesus taught, and for which he was crucified, opened a new era for the world. Those who slew him to stay his influence perpetuated and extended it.
Jesus rose higher in demonstration because of the cup of bitterness he drank. Human law had condemned him, but he was demonstrating divine Science. Out of reach of the barbarity of his enemies, he was acting under spiritual law in defiance of matter and mortality, and that spiritual law sustained him. The divine must overcome the human at every point. The Science Jesus taught and lived must triumph over all material beliefs about life, substance, and intelligence, and the multitudinous errors growing from such beliefs.
Love must triumph over hate. Truth and Life must seal the victory over error and death, before the thorns can be laid aside for a crown, the benediction follow, “Well done, good and faithful servant,” and the supremacy of Spirit be demonstrated.
