Why is Christian Science in our name?
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.

Responding to the coronavirus - All Coverage
Our aim is to provide stories that go beyond the course of the illness. We calmly examine how the world is responding, and what that says about our humanity, our responsibility, and our interconnectedness.
As a public service, we have removed our paywall for all coronavirus stories so they can be shared freely.
