About Me
- Evan Mehlenbacher
- I am a practitioner and teacher of Christian Science. From an early age I wanted to help others find spiritual healing for the problems they faced. After graduating from Stanford University and working with my dad in the family farming business for five years, I decided my heart was elsewhere. I left the business and went into the full time practice of Christian Science Mind-healing. For over 22 years I have been healing people of pain, suffering and disease through my prayers. I have written dozens of articles on spiritual healing that have been published in magazines and on the Internet. I teach a two week class annually on how to heal through Christian Science, and have a wonderful wife and two teenage children. I hope you stick around and enjoy this blog.

Thank you for sharing, Evan. It was a helpful reminder to me of a lesson I learned as a young adult. I was thinking back on Christmases one day, and remembered a Christmas when my dad spent the whole day playing Monopoly with my sisters and me. I realized that I couldn't remember the presents, the things I had received over the years, but the one thing that stuck in my mind the most was the Christmas my dad gave us his time. It truly is a precious gift.
Thanks for the reminder!
Wow! Your comment is powerful...
