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.

This year’s Forbes list of the world's most valuable teams is heavy with two kinds of football and features a new top squad. Can you guess which team, and which sport, nabbed the number one spot?
Sport: Soccer
City: Madrid
Owner: Club members
Value: $3.3 billion
Real nabbed the top spot on this year’s list thanks to the sports world’s highest revenues ($650 million annually and a 62 percent increase over the last three years, according to Forbes) and pricey new sponsorship deals with Adidas and Emirates Airlines. Like Barça, Los Blancos are owned by club members.
