Inspiring weekly podcast

Women in the Bible:

How their stories help us

March 20 - 26

Guest: Madelon Maupin

When you think of notable women who've shaped the world we live in today, do you think of Lydia? Or how about Abigail?

Our guest this week discusses the stories - and impact - of these and other female biblical figures and invites you to consider with her their continuing relevance.

If the current podcast is not posted by CSPS Internet Radio on Monday morning, go to Sentinel Watch Archive.

NEW lecture video

Learning to love your enemies

Giulia Nesi Tetreau, Speaker

What makes us think we have enemies? Our differences don't need to divide us if we're understanding and living what the Bible calls agape love. Giulia presents a new way of seeing ourselves and others as never separated from God, good. She shares examples of intense feelings of hurt, anger, resentment, and fear confronted and healed.

Giulia is a Christian Science healer and a member of the worldwide Christian Science Board of Lectureship. She has dedicated her life to the healthcare field, formerly as a psychotherapist and now as a Christian Science practitioner and teacher. The talk is sponsored by the Christian Science Church in Claremont, CA

Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God, And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel. Mark 1:14, 15

Jesus of Nazareth was the most scientific man that ever trod the globe. He plunged beneath the material surface of things, and found the spiritual cause. (Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, Mary Baker Eddy, p. 313:23–26)
