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.

It's Earth Day. Check out these 13 books for the literary equivalent of a green boost of antioxidants and protein.
What if humans suddenly experienced a mass extinction? Read this book as a flight of fancy rather than a prophecy, though that flight is well-researched and compellingly told. Weisman imagines the slow decline of cities, speculating as to which animals would take our place at the top of the food chain, and envisioning what would happen to the environment without us. He also tries to provide solutions to many of the environmental problems that his book focuses on.
