Be Set Free
To live a life of liberty, we have to find
the nature and substance of liberty — God, good itself.
| In this talk, we’ll examine liberty from a Biblical perspective, and see how real people find their freedom from all kinds of physical, emotional and circumstantial restrictions so that they may Be Set Free. |

Nicole Virgil is a Christian Science practitioner and member of the Christian Science Board of Lectureship. Nicole’s father was a free-lance church organist, and her parents attended services at many different Christian churches in New England. Her mom had been on a years-long search to find out how to practice Christian healing just as Jesus did, and when she started attending Christian Science church services, she found what she was looking for. As a result, Nicole was raised in Christian Science, and developed a deep desire for an intimate relationship with God. Nicole studied Christian Science with her mom and music with her dad, and found that each discipline complemented the other. Christian Science healed performance anxiety, while learning music honed the skills she needed for spiritual practice — skills such as intuition, listening, patience and diligence. Throughout her life, Christian Science and music have always overlapped: after studying opera at music school, she took her one-woman opera review program (That Can’t Be Opera!) on the road, educating audiences about opera by singing Mozart, Puccini, and Menotti. Christian Science guided her through this entrepreneurial endeavor, just as it led her to start soloing in churches as a teenager (which is something she still loves to do!) — Nicole eventually married, started a family with her husband, and entered the public practice of Christian Science.

Prayer and Healing
Feeling threatened by illness, lack or some other problem? No matter where you are, who you’re with, you can always pray to God and expect an answer. You don’t need to be in church or on your knees … you can pray ‘on the go’. Christian Sciences teaches how prayer works and how to pray effectively, and that we can expect these prayers to be answered. Scientific prayer as taught in Christian Science is powerful and effective and brings healing to any situation.
Watch videos of people healed by prayer in Christian Science. Their inspiring stories tell of lives lived fearlessly, healthfully, and abundantly through the study and practice of Christian Science.

Values and Beliefs
Christian Science is Christian. It's based on the teachings of Christ Jesus, who said, “He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also...” (John 14:12). Mary Baker Eddy (the discoverer and founder of Christian Science) said, “these mighty works are not supernatural, but supremely natural...” (Science and Health, p.xi:14). This can mean resolving difficult challenges with health, relationships, employment, and other personal and global issues through prayer. People who practice Christian Science are free to make their own choices about what to think and do in each situation, including health care. But Christian Science is so much more than a system of self-help or health care. Ultimately, it is a way to draw closer to our loving Father-Mother, God, as well as all of humanity.
The full explanation of Christian Science is contained in Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mrs. Eddy. Written as the result of Scriptural study, revelation, and actual experience in spiritual healing, the book seeks to change the reader’s perception from a material to a spiritual foundation, and this change in perception results in healing.
Christian Science has helped many people find better emotional and physical health, answers to life’s deepest issues and progress on their spiritual journeys. MORE
