I CORINTHIANS 13:

In 1890 a book was published by Henry Drummond, a Scottish evangelist. It is entitled, “The Greatest Thing in the World.” It is a beautiful study of I Corinthians 13. Here is a link where you can read this book if you do not already have it.

“THE GREATEST THING IN THE WORLD” BY HENRY DRUMMOND

______

Listen to it read aloud: just click on this link

__________

From the MBE LIBRARY: June 28, 2018

Henry Drummond (1851–1897) was a Scottish evangelist. His book on First Corinthians 13, The Greatest Thing in the World and other Addresses, was first published in 1890.

In the May 1913 issue of The Christian Science Journal, Kate Davidson Kimball mentioned Drummond and his book. “Mrs. Eddy once said she had intended to write such a book herself,” she recalled, “but Professor Drummond had done it so well that he had saved her the effort.”

We’ve been unable to find any additional information concerning this comment. Kimball and her husband Edward A. Kimball, a Christian Science teacher and lecturer, were both students of Mary Baker Eddy, who may have conveyed what Mrs. Kimball recalled simply through conversation.

Miscellaneous:

WHY DO WE KNEEL AND PRAY IN THE COMMUNION SERVICE?

Praying in Communion Services:

"The sacrament shall be observed ... by a short interval of solemn and silent self-examination by each member, as to his or her fitness to be called a follower of Christ, Truth; as to his real state of love toward man, and fellowship and communion with Christ; as to whether he is gaining in the understanding and demonstration of Truth and Love, coming out from the world and being separated from error; growing less selfish, more charitable and spiritual, yea, walking worthy of his high calling.” (Mary Baker Eddy, The Christian Science Journal, volume 7, 1889-90, page 259).

“One should turn into his consciousness with renewed carefulness the ever- searching light of Truth. Shall it not be a specific time for purging from one's thought all that is unworthy and untrue?”

(Ella W. Hoag, Communion Services, July 5, 1919 Christian Science Sentinel)

As far as funding for this new venture, I am leaving it all to the gratitude that you as the listener might feel. I long for this to be completely free to the audience, however, after leaving Peace Haven, now my own need for supply is greater. 

If you feel the conference calls and blog have helped you in any way to grow in your understanding of the Scriptures, if you find they have developed your ability to study, to teach Sunday School, to be a better Reader, or practitioner, or if you are feeling more inspired when reading the Bible, please consider donating to csbibleinsights. 

Also if you think these calls have leavened thought in the Christian Science Movement, then please consider how to express your gratitude in a monetary way so I can continue to offer these services to you and the Christian Science Movement. I am so grateful to each one of you and for your receptivity and love of the Bible. 

If you want to do bill pay, here is my information:
