Members of The First Church of Christ, Scientist consider Eddy the "discoverer" of Christian Science, and adherents are therefore known as Christian Scientists or students of Christian Science. The church is sometimes informally known as the Christian Science church.

Autorenporträt
Mary Baker Eddy was born in Bow, New Hampshire, into a devoutly religious family. From a young age, she exhibited a deep interest in spirituality and religion. Her early life was marked by ill health, which influenced her later pursuits and spiritual explorations. "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" (1875): This is Eddy's seminal work and the foundational text of Christian Science. The book outlines her teachings on spirituality, health, and the interpretation of the Bible. It explores the relationship between the divine mind and human existence, advocating for a spiritual approach to healing and well-being. Mary Baker Eddy's teachings have had a significant impact on religious thought and the practice of spiritual healing. She established the Church of Christ, Scientist in 1879 and later founded the Christian Science Monitor, an internationally recognized newspaper known for its thoughtful and balanced journalism. Mary Baker Eddy passed away in 1910, but her legacy continues through the Christian Science movement, which remains active today with churches worldwide. Her contributions to religious thought and her advocacy for spiritual approaches to health and healing have left a lasting mark on both religious and cultural landscapes. Eddy's life and works, particularly "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," continue to be studied and revered by adherents of Christian Science, and her influence extends into broader discussions on the interplay between faith, health, and spirituality.
