The Study
Christian Scientists use two books as their primary method of study: the Bible and Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures. These two books together are the pastor of the church. Each day they study the Christian Science Bible Lesson from these two books. There are 26 topics that are repeated twice a year. In addition, there is a Thanksgiving lesson that is read at the church service on Thanksgiving morning.
