Mary Baker Eddy: A Life from Beginning to End (Biographies of Women in History Book 10)


Hourly History - 2019
     Mary Baker Eddy stands unique in our collective remembrances of supposed prophets of the bygone past. She was a girl that quite literally felt a calling at an early age when she thought she heard a supernatural voice call her name. Shortly thereafter she was intermittently beset with chronic illnesses and remarkable bouts of healing. Mary Baker Eddy did not claim to understand where her spontaneous remissions were coming from until much later in life; it was in old age, when no one expected Mary Baker Eddy to do much of anything except retire, that she entered into her great final act, and in doing so, she rocked the entire religious world to its core. Inside you will read about... ✓ Healed by Prayer ✓ Early Love and Loss ✓ Separated from Her Son ✓ Mary during the American Civil War ✓ The Birth of Christian Science And much more! Whether or not you believe her claims of healing and divine intervention, the story of Mary Baker Eddy, founder of the Church of Christ, Scientist, is a riveting one all the same.
