The blessings of a grateful heart
Thanksgiving and always, genuine gratitude for God’s goodness and love brings strength, peace, and healing, as this poem conveys.
Black lives, blue lives, and everyone's true life
Recognizing everyone’s true nature as God’s child heals anger, fear, or hopelessness and empowers us to support all-inclusive safety for our communities.
What the power of music shows us
As we open our hearts to divine harmony and praise to God, strength and healing replace fear and discord, as a man experienced when faced with chest pain and difficulty breathing.
Breathe free
Nothing can stop the limitless flow of inspiration and peace from God, the divine Love that forever “encircles you and me,” as this poem conveys.
Back to school with freedom
Each of us can find the healing and freedom that come from seeing ourselves and others through a spiritual lens – as a middle schooler and his family experienced firsthand at the beginning of a school year.
Touched by the simplicity of Christ
Even just a moment of genuine yearning to feel closer to God, good, can have profound effects.
My ‘done’ list
Sometimes to-do lists can feel overwhelming. But God has given each of us the grace, patience, and creativity we need to accomplish what we need to.
About the Healing Perspectives
Each weekday, the Monitor includes one clearly labeled religious article offering spiritual insight on contemporary issues, including the news. The publication – in its various forms – is produced for anyone who cares about the progress of the human endeavor around the world and seeks news reported with compassion, intelligence, and an essentially constructive lens. For many, that caring has religious roots. For many, it does not. The Monitor has always embraced both audiences. The Monitor is owned by a church – The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston – whose founder was concerned with both the state of the world and the quality of available news.
