When I share Christian Science perspectives with other prisoners…
When I share Christian Science perspectives with other prisoners, I emphasize that we already possess the traits we desire. We just have to acknowledge the spiritual, inspired qualities that are our inherent nature. We only have to recognize that.
I am renewed in the spirit of my mind daily…
I am renewed in the spirit of my mind daily. You have to remember that not one word of God is going to fall to the ground — not one word! That’s a principle that I use daily.

I had a couple of healings through Christian Science when I was locked up. My knee was hurting real bad around 2010. I prayed on it and one of the CS volunteers prayed for me also. I was pretty sure it was going to be a permanent situation, but now I can run, jog, do […]
I was going through a down spell, and I said to myself…
I was going through a down spell, and I said to myself: “Look, something has to change.” So I picked up Science and Health and started reading — and I got a feeling of peace and home. The way the book explained the question and the answers, she made it into something I could really […]

I heard about a Christian Science meeting in the prison. You know what I found there? It was a peace that I have never experienced. It just came over me and I relaxed and I felt like I should be there. I just love “Footsteps of Truth.” That’s my favorite chapter — it tells the […]

Three years ago, my doctors told me I was sick with leukemia. I was consumed with worry. Since coming to CS, my health has had a total change. The more serious I got with God, with MBE, the better I felt. I have overcome the sickness. The past year the cancer has been undetectable.
People ask me how I made it through prison?
People ask me how I made it through prison? I made it through with Christian Science — by knowing spiritual reality (knowing God as well), and all the stuff around me became illusion. I knew that the kingdom of God was within me and I didn’t have to be so intimidated by what was around […]
We are tempted to think that we are dependent on ourselves…
We are tempted to think that we are dependent on ourselves, that we are self-sufficient. We may go through this phase of thinking, only to learn that we are completely dependent on God. We are guided, guarded, governed by divine Mind, divine Principle, God.
Christian Science educated me on the nature of God…
Christian Science educated me on the nature of God. He is in almost everything. God is every minute all around. And I started understanding that I wasn’t alone. Even here in prison I wasn’t alone. God was always steady with me — I just had to recognize his presence in my life.
[Christian Science is] so refreshing…
[Christian Science is] so refreshing. When I read how God is love, God is spirit, God is not corporeal, I’m like “wow, I’ve always felt that way: like God was all things and everywhere and inside of me. Jesus says “the kingdom of God is within you” and it was brought to light by Christian […]
