A different kind of pastor…
- The Christian Science Sunday Bible Lesson-Sermon is not preached by a traditional ordained pastor but read from the Bible and the Christian Science textbook, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy
- Two readers are elected from the church membership to serve as readers on a rotating basis. One reads citations from the Bible, and the other reader reads correlative citations from Science and Health.
- The Bible citations are selected from both the Old and New Testaments
