Ideas for studying the Lesson on "Mind" for February 19, 2017

Dear Friends, This lesson is filled with words like wisdom, knowledge, understanding, the way, teach, etc. Many are synonymous with each other.

Mrs. Eddy tells us that Christian Science 

". . . is not a search after wisdom, it is wisdom:"

". . . it is God’s right hand grasping the universe, — all time, space, immortality, thought, extension, cause, and effect; constituting and governing all identity, individuality, law, and power." Mis. 364:12-17

Idea for studying the concept of "Mind." Sometimes it is helpful to take a portion of S&H and spread it out in Concord and Word, and then go through that section looking up every word, explaining what something is, what it does, what it frees us from, writing treatments using the ideas, and also seeing all the biblical connections. It is just a way to see a concept we are familiar with in a whole new light. Here is the question in S&H 469, "What is Mind?"

I'm sharing this with you as an example. You might make a blank copy of something, and fill in the blanks yourself with your own insights. This is my beginning study on this question, "What is Mind?" Hope it is helpful as we all learn how to study more deeply!

If you are a member of Biblos Foundation (my sister, Kristy Christian's foundation), you have FREE access to a Disciple Study Booklet that is really good. Just log into the website www.biblosfoundation.org, and go to Study Packets. You can run it off or use it on your computer.  There are timelines, charts, resources, etc. The cover looks like this:
