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.

'The Office' actress Mindy Kaling writes about karaoke and a horrible audition where she looked like Angelina Ballerina.
"Though I have the voice of an eleven-year-old girl, I have no natural rapport with children," Kaling wrote. "I'm not one of those women who melts when a baby enters the room and immediately knows all the right age-specific questions to ask.... I'm the one who looks at the infant, smiles nervously, and as my contribution to small talk, robotically announces to the parent, 'Your child looks healthy and well cared for.' "
