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.

Skyhorse, author of "The Madonnas of Echo Park," tells the story of his childhood in his new memoir. In "Take This Man," Skyhorse details how his mother decided to reinvent her son's identity, claiming that he was the son of a Native American activist. Later, Skyhorse tries to find his real father. "[It's a] really sort of searing book about your identity and what you're told versus what you know to be true," says Nelson.
