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.

Solomon, also the author of "The Noonday Demon," explores family in all its complexity in his examination of families who raise children who are in some way different – gay, disabled, gifted, etc. – from their parents. Nelson says one of the most powerful chapters is one which focuses on parents raising a child who becomes a criminal. "He's a very good writer," she says of Solomon. "He doesn't come to pat conclusions."
