This book by a first-hand observer provides an important chronicle of Mary Baker Eddy, the Christian Science church, and the challenges faced by the early workers. Descriptions of the individual roles of the pioneers of the church and its Founder, Mary Baker Eddy, are woven in and out of reminiscences and the author's commentary. Several difficult and triumphant periods of the church's growth are candidly recounted. The author also shares his individual views of the future of The Mother Church, its roots in Biblical prophecy, and the requisite dedication of church members. The Destiny of the Mother Church is an interesting and unusual text which adds significantly to the biographic literature of Mary Baker Eddy and the history of the church. Originally published for private circulation in 1947, The Destiny of the Mother Church is here available in print by The Christian Science Publishing Society., ISBN13: 9780875102313 ISBN10: 087510231X Material Type: hardcover
