In-Person lecture: ANGRY NO MORE — FROM HURT TO HEALTH THROUGH FORGIVENESS

Speaker: Michelle Nanouche.

Spirituality and the practice of prayer isn’t a lifestyle choice for Michelle; it is basic to who she is. Her family was introduced to Christian Science through her dad’s healing of acute depression. She was exposed to the idea that God heals sickness from an early age. At twelve, Michelle prayed to God to heal a foot wound. The quick healing fanned her interest in all things relating to God. In her last year of high school she took evening training to be a Christian Science nurse’s aide. Right after graduation, she pursued training for the healing ministry of Christian Science nursing.Nine years as a Christian Science nurse provided her with loads of experience in healing through spiritual means.

By the time Michelle opened her first public office as a Christian Science practitioner in 1989, she had witnessed a great number of healings through prayer. From personal experience, she can share accounts of healings of broken bones, tumors, pneumonia, eating disorders, heart disease, mental and emotional disorders, financial difficulties and more. She has observed in the practice of Christian Science that following the example and teachings of Christ Jesus heals quickly and effectively. Mary Baker Eddy’s Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures unlocks the treasure trove of the Bible explaining the science of the Christ that heals.How does forgiveness help us go from feeling hurt to health, happiness, and peace? This Christian Science lecture with Michelle Nanouche explores how you can find healing for emotional, mental and physical issues stemming from unhealed anger and divisiveness.

For those who have felt victimized, trailed by a sad past, or marked by abuse, Michelle’s lecture offers insights that neutralize anger. The spiritual reasoning through prayer, taught in Christian Science, opens one’s natural ability for peace, forgiveness, restoration and progress. It addresses common questions about Christian Science and its practice:

• How does Christian Science deal with evil and sin?
• What distinguishes Christian forgiveness, as explained in Christian Science, from ignoring or allowing evil to continue?
• Is Christian Science teaching on anger, sin and forgiveness Bible-based?
• Are Old Testament scriptures helpful in practicing mercy and forgiveness?
• Is Christian Science treatment effective in healing emotional, mental and behavioral difficulties stemming from abuse?

The life of Mary Baker Eddy is discussed in the context of the spiritual insight and healing that led to her becoming a world-renowned American religious reformer. It also gives examples of her Christian character and the influence of her faith in dealing with anger.
