A Christian Science Reading Room is a place where lives can be changed. Similar to a library or bookstore, a Reading Room offers a place to read, pray, and get inspired. It’s a space where many have been healed by studying the lessons of the Bible and nurturing a connection with God.
Reading Rooms are quiet community based spiritual resource centers that function as both bookstores and drop-in centers for the exploration of spiritual healing, prayer, and spirituality. In our Reading Rooms we welcome your questions about Christian Science. You are invited to study, borrow, or purchase the Bible, and other literature and audio products from The Christian Science Publishing Society. We also carry the complete writings of Mary Baker Eddy and other Bible related products (in various languages) for study or purchase.
