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.

The good that’s all around, if we look for it
Mark Sappenfield
We usually talk about our own stories in this space, and appropriately so. But today, I stumbled upon this podcast as I was scanning the Morning Dispatch newsletter: “Country Over Self.” The synopsis says, “Country Over Self and Country Over Party have always been cornerstones of the American Presidency.”
Sometimes, it can seem that seeking mutual humanity and our higher natures can be a lonely place in today’s media landscape. But it’s not. The podcast was a welcome reminder to look for the good all around. It’s out there to be found.
