Melanie Wahlberg, Speaker
In discovering more of God’s universally loving nature, we naturally give more of ourselves. Giving freely of ourselves lifts everyone.
The talk focuses on universal healing precepts found in the Holy Bible, especially in Christ Jesus’ life and teachings, showing how they are available for anyone to understand and experience through the lens of Christian Science.
“When we feel overwhelmed by life’s problems, we may want to try to get more from the world,” says Wahlberg. “But when we do the opposite – give more of ourselves or focus on the God-given qualities we already have to express or contribute, we find that we end up not lacking anything. Really, we gain the unexpected good of joy, health, and strength that move our lives and the world forward.”
Sharing examples of healing from her own life and professional practice of Christian Science, Wahlberg explains why Christian Science is both Christian and scientific, meaning that people can prove its effectiveness for themselves, as fully described in the book Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, written by the founder of the Christian Science movement, Mary Baker Eddy.
Wahlberg also touches on the life of Mary Baker Eddy, and how she came to understand, confirm, and teach what she felt was original Christian healing. Eddy herself said she was especially inspired by Jesus’ demand, “He that believes on me, the works that I do will he do also; and greater works than these will he do, because I go unto my Father” (found in the Gospel of John 14:12 in the Bible).
For over 150 years, people around the world have worked to follow Christ Jesus in this practice of Christianity and continue to do so today, with healings of physical ills and personal difficulties.
Wahlberg is a Christian Science practitioner and member of the worldwide Christian Science Board of Lectureship. The talk was sponsored by the Christian Science Churches in Fullerton and Yorba Linda, CA.
