Finding Joy, Health, Hope For All

By Dany Turner

What if good is inevitable? There is a reason for unshakable joy!

Sometimes we can feel that joy seems hard to find – and seems even harder to keep! But what if joy is really fundamental to our nature? What if it is something all of us have permanently?

Christian Science lecturer Steve Salt, CSB, says, “What if we could find the good in life for which our hearts yearn is invulnerable to surrounding events, that it’s never ‘on the line’ for any reason, actually? If there was a way to trust that, and to prove it, that would give us a compelling reason to have hope. Even a reason for unshakeable joy. Christian Science explains the incredible good endowed on us by God–a good all of us deserve and can even expect–all the time.”

Mr. Salt will share how he was healed of mental darkness, and subsequently regained his sense of joy. Through praying with ideas from the Bible and Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy, he was transformed–uplifted by a better understanding of joy as a quality of an all-present, all loving God.

He will also share other healings, thoughts on identity, prayer, and what Jesus taught about joy. And he’ll describe Mary Baker Eddy’s life. She founded Christian Science, wrote Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, and modeled a prayerful approach to life, through good happenings and bad, health and sickness, security and poverty, safety and homelessness–prevailing over all of these obstacles, and helping many others along the way.
