Christian Science lecturer Mark Swinney will present \"The Healing Effect of Your Prayers\" at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, May 2, at the Darien Library. <\/p>\n
The event is sponsored by First Church of Christ, Scientist. <\/p>\n
The lecture is a \"how-to,\" illustrating how the universal laws of God, rightfully understood, bring freedom from pain and suffering. <\/p>\n
\"I explore what happens when you commune with God in prayer,\" Swinney said. \"There is a potent, healing effect that results when the power of God is allowed to transform your thoughts. Spiritually sensing the presence of God as divine love has the effect of bringing moments of wonderful inspiration and enlightenment -- moments that actually reform and cure.\" <\/p>\n
Swinney's ideas are based on the teachings of Jesus as recorded in the Bible and as discussed in \"Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures\" by Mary Baker Eddy, the textbook of Christian Science. <\/p>\n
For more than two decades, he has devoted himself full time to the public practice of healing spiritually. He has traveled much of the world speaking about the healing power of prayer. <\/p>\n
A writer, he was managing editor for several Christian Science magazines and editor of the book \"Healing Spiritually.\" A member of the Christian Science Board of Lectureship, Swinney resides in Sandia Park, N.M. <\/p>\n
