For this Christmas Eve edition, we offer you a special audio presentation.
Here’s how to listen:
If you’re reading the Daily in our email format, you’ll need to click through to the full web-based version. Do that by clicking on the headphones icon at the top, or click on any story in the email – and then scroll to the audio controls at the bottom. If you’re already on the web version, then you’re all set!
Here’s the bonus you’ll find there today: Four of our editors read excerpts from their favorite holiday stories.
Please enjoy this offering. And Merry Christmas.
Now, to our five featured stories for today.
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.
