The Parable Of the Grass

Grass can be

greener wherever you

want it to be. It can

be in town at the

Philharmonic, it can be

at the Bronx Museum of the

Arts, it can be in an

unveiled labyrinth filled

with nostalgic longing

for the old ways, it can

be in a courtyard apartment

where a woman with shoulder-

length

hair streaked with gray writes

at the kitchen table.

Why is Christian Science in our name?

Our name is about honesty. The Monitor is owned by The Christian Science Church, and we’ve always been transparent about that.

The Church publishes the Monitor because it sees good journalism as vital to progress in the world. Since 1908, we’ve aimed “to injure no man, but to bless all mankind,” as our founder, Mary Baker Eddy, put it.

Here, you’ll find award-winning journalism not driven by commercial influences – a news organization that takes seriously its mission to uplift the world by seeking solutions and finding reasons for credible hope.
