Our name is about honesty. The Monitor is owned by The Christian Science Church, and we’ve always been transparent about that.
The Church publishes the Monitor because it sees good journalism as vital to progress in the world. Since 1908, we’ve aimed “to injure no man, but to bless all mankind,” as our founder, Mary Baker Eddy, put it.
Here, you’ll find award-winning journalism not driven by commercial influences – a news organization that takes seriously its mission to uplift the world by seeking solutions and finding reasons for credible hope.

From the new book 'The Moment,' 6 examples of a moment that changed a life.
The author of "A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius" was in high school when he submitted a paper on "Macbeth" to an English teacher named Mr. Criche. When he got it back, Criche had written under the grade, "Sure hope you become a writer." "It was the first time anyone had indicated in any way that writing was a career option for me," Eggers wrote. "Even when I was discouraged by some instructors in college, Mr. Criche's words always came back to me and gave me strength."
