Christian Science teaches how to find a deep-settled calm within ourselves that cannot be disrupted by fear or outward disturbances. In this talk, Lari will share examples of how the ideas in the Bible and the writings of Mary Baker Eddy can help us find lasting peace and bring healing to our lives.

The dependable healing power of Christ’s Christianity. A lecture by Kari Mashos, C.S.B.
Saturday, May 18 11:00 a.m. First Church of Christ, Scientist 3218 W. Arkansas Lane Arlington, TX 76016
“Buildings of great cultural significance, like the Acropolis in Athens, draw visitors from around the world to admire their historical importance, as well as their beauty and ingenuity. I love seeing the Acropolis every time I go home to Athens, but what’s really captured my attention is the careful restoration of its monuments.
Restoration
is a theme that most of us can relate to. Whether it’s the restoration
of a relationship, financial restoration after a hardship, or a
restoration of our bodies, the desire to bring some aspect of our lives
back to wholeness is a fairly universal one. But is restoration always possible? And if so, how?
Through my study of the Bible and Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures
by Mary Baker Eddy—the textbook of Christian Science, which has helped
me understand the practicality and spiritual significance of the
Bible—I’ve learned that the restoration of our bodies and lives is
actually completely natural. Yet unlike the restoration of the
Acropolis, this spiritual restoration—the regeneration of our lives
through the power of God—is not the effort to bring back an object to a
close version of its original. Instead, the divine healing method that
restores lives is a spiritual awakening. This holy inspiration does not
restore us from a lost state; instead, it is the revelation that we can
never lose what our divine, loving Father gives us: health, wholeness,
peace.
In this lecture, I’ll share healings from my own life that shed more light on this spiritual approach to restoration, and on the system of healing that allows each of us to feel more of the regenerating power of God in our lives: Christian Science. “

Monday, April 22 at 12:00 pm The Science of Christianity
Ever since I was a little girl, I have appreciated the scientific nature of Christianity through my study of Christian Science. I enjoy sharing and exploring this point with audiences in this lecture.
I so loved this logical approach to problem-solving that I majored in meteorology and computer science in college and worked for 20 years in different areas of applied physical science. This lecture points out the similarities and the differences between my study of physical science and my study of Christian Science.
The lecture also explores one of the laws of God that is ever-present and ever-operating: “God is Love.” That law comes from the book of First John in the Bible. The lecture includes several examples of healing which illustrate how the law of God as Love is relevant and practical today.

Monday, April 22 at 7:00 pm Practicing Christian Healing Today
What do you think of when you hear the word Christianity? For some today, Christianity may have negative connotations, or perhaps provoke something other than an entirely positive response. But the Christianity I know—the Christianity I understand that Christ Jesus taught—is a vital, crucial agent for healing in the world.
My heart yearns for people to know what Christianity truly means: To me, it’s so about love. And there is no better example in human history of genuine, unconditional love—and its healing effect—than Christ Jesus’ own life. The love he taught and demonstrated actually transformed lives—so it must have been more than mere sympathy or kindness. It must have been the inspiration of divine Love, God, that enabled him to embrace each individual as the beloved child of God.
Living Christianity is about how we can do the same—how Jesus himself expected us to do the same. He taught that those who followed him by living and loving according to his teachings could heal as he did. And he left us with the promise that spiritual healing is possible for everyone to experience and practice.
At the heart of this healing is love—the true vision of our neighbor which flows from God, Love itself. In this lecture, I’ll share how this love impels us to go beyond our preconceived notions and discover more of each individual’s God-derived nature in order to help others. I’ll also discuss some other ideas basic to Christian Science—which is founded on Jesus’ words and works—that allow any of us to heal and be healed.
My hope is that you’ll be able to walk away from this lecture with the essence of true Christianity in your own heart: love that reforms, transforms, and heals.
