Does being spiritual mean giving up life as you know it? Will life still be fun—can you still eat and drink, love and laugh? Jesus, the purest example of living a spiritual existence, ate and drank with people, and he loved his disciples and the people who came to him for healing. His spirituality enabled him to accomplish things that are still being pondered today.

So how can we get closer to living the life example that the Master Christian showed us? In this chat with a Christian Science practitioner and teacher, you’ll get some insights into how to understand God as Spirit and to see yourself as His reflection—full of health, strength, goodness, and promise. Bring your questions and find out how prayer can change your life and give wings to your God-given potential.
