SUMMARY:Hybrid lecture: Effective prayer: finding healing and wholeness in divine Love
DESCRIPTION:Effective prayer: finding healing and wholeness in divine Love\n\nA FREE Inspirational Talkby Bobby Lewis\nIn this lecture\, explore practical and transformative prayer\, as taught in Christian Science.\nThrough compelling personal stories\, Christian Science practitioner and lecturer Bobby Lewis illustrates how the spiritual laws of divine Love operate– and how prayer brings us into alignment with these laws. Whether you’re feeling lost or struggling with illness\, effective prayer can restore clarity\, peace and wholeness in every area of life. \nThis is an in-person lecture at 1003 4th Street\, Bremerton\, WA with an option to also listen on Zoom from wherever you are. \nAbout Bobby Lewis\n \n\nBobby grew up in the mountains of Colorado in the US and has found inspiration in wild places all of his life. During some tough teen-age years\, his mother (a Christian Science Practitioner)\, helped him begin to see himself as spiritually whole and loved by God right in the midst of those challenges. It made all the difference and that dark time was left behind. \nThe care he received\, and those early lessons of the value of seeking spiritually and listening deeply to God\, set him on a trajectory of wanting to give back to others by supporting their growth. Over the years that took shape in work as a camp counselor\, experiential educator\, and chaplain for service organizations. \nAfter studying religion in college and graduate school with a focus on learning more about how to put the teachings of the Bible into day-to-day practice\, Bobby began work as a Christian Science practitioner\, reaching out to others with healing focused prayer. \nBeing “moved with compassion\,” as Christ Jesus modeled\, and connecting people with God’s healing love is at the heart of Bobby’s ministry and life. \nBobby still lives in Colorado with his family and animals on a little ranch along the river\, where he loves to write poetry\, walk\, listen\, and stand in awe of Spirit’s infinite creation. \n\nThis free talk is sponsored byFirst Church of Christ\, Scientist\, Bremerton\, WA\nOn Zoom: EFFECTIVE PRAYER | ZOOM LECTURE 22 SEPT 7PM \nMeeting ID: 867 8890 8713Passcode: 306079

SUMMARY:In-Person lecture and livestream: THE JOY OF BEGINNING WITH GOD
DESCRIPTION:The Joy of Beginning with God\nA FREE Inspirational Talk\nby Mark McCurties\nHave you ever wondered what it means to start with God first?\nJoin us for this free Christian Science Talk with international speaker and Christian Science healer\, Mark McCurties on Tuesday\, April 16\, at 7 p.m. at the Christian Science Church\, 1003 Fourth Street\, in Bremerton\, WA.\nThis talk will also be livestreamed at https://us02web.zoom.us/j/89535965640?pwd=UWlHUzQzKzJva0hIUFN4TGdTOXNhZz09\nDuring this inspiring hour\, Mark will share his ideas on the spiritual law of causation\, or how to start with God and stay with God.\nSays Mark: “The very first verse of the Bible in the chapter Genesis offers the most wonderful news: ‘In the beginning\, God created the heaven and the earth.’ Part of what this glorious verse tells us is that in reality\, everything and everyone begins with God. In other words\, God is the only cause and the only creator\, and God is causing good and right developments for each one of us. “ \n\n  \n\n“Mary Baker Eddy\, the woman who founded the Christian Science church\, knew that this subject of causation\, cause and effect\, might just be the most important discussion of our time. In fact\, she boldly stated that making progress in the world depends on understanding cause and effect in the right way. She wrote: “Spiritual causation is the one question to be considered\, for more than all others spiritual causation relates to human progress.” (Science and Health p. 170:22–24) \n“To that point\, perhaps you’ve noticed that the world is talking nonstop about causation right now.\ \nIn this lecture\, I’m going to take a different approach. I’d like to talk about causation\, from a spiritual point of view. In other words\, what is God causing? What kind of effects does God’s causative power produce? The Bible promises that God is causing only good. So in this lecture\, I will explore how a better understanding of the good that God forever causes\, can help us to experience more of that goodness in the form of health\, peace\, and safety for our world. In the beginning\, from the beginning\, and without beginning\, God is causing good. As loved children of God\, we each have a divine right to feel the effect of that divine goodness in our daily lives. I invite you then\, to come learn more about the joy of beginning with God.” \n  \nAbout Mark McCurties\nEver since he was a little boy\, Mark had a deep love for the Bible. When he read about men and women in the Bible overcoming hatred\, famine\, war\, physical disease\, and other hardships\, their triumphs inspired him. It didn’t matter what the odds were\, or what conditions they faced\, individuals in the Bible seemed to flourish in adversity based on one common theme: their deep love for God. \nGrowing up in a Christian Science household\, there was another book that Mark loved to read daily: Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures written by Mary Baker Eddy. The very purpose of her book is to help unlock and reveal the deeper divine meaning and inspiration of the Bible. Together the Bible and Science and Health point to the practical healing and saving power of God and its present availability for all mankind. Mark knew that someday he wanted to share that healing message with the world. \nAs he grew into adulthood\, experiences in the field of education as a summer camp director\, outdoor educator\, athletics coach\, and resident counselor all helped to develop his understanding and practice of Christian Science. While working with young people\, Mark had multiple opportunities to witness God’s healing power. These examples proved to him that the healing power of the Christ is just as alive and relevant today as for the men and women of the Bible. In 2010\, with a desire to focus solely on healing through prayer\, Mark entered the full-time public practice of Christian Science. \nThis free talk is sponsored by First Church of Christ\, Scientist\, Bremerton\, WA.\nSunrise photo by Ivana Cajina on Unsplash
