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.
Explore values journalism About us
Can any human
wunderkind
rival the sculptures
of water and wind?
Can any voices
charm or please
like the singing sands
that vibrate, tease
on the Island of Eigg
in the Hebrides?
Can any artist's
painting vie
with the Maelstrom's
giant, piercing eye?
Gorges, cascades,
canyons, hills:
Scan, copy,
probe them as we will -
earth's wonders always
are wonders still
that Nature revises
endlessly,
never content
to let them be.
