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.

These 10 books represent the best of narrative nonfiction.
The 216 weeks that Berendt’s book spent on The New York Times bestseller list is still a record. A murder mystery set in Savannah, Georgia, the book is a rare case where popular and critical success coincided. It’s a suspenseful detective story with a taut narrative structure. It’s an immersive plunge into the mores and idiosyncrasies of society in the Deep South. It’s an affectionate and evocative depiction of several outlandish and outsized characters. The only thing it’s not is fiction.
