About this author

edit data

I was raised on a farm, in a family of seven. After receiving my Bachelors Degree from Colorado State University, I got married (still married, twenty-five years later!) We have two fantastic, spirited, radiant daughters. We also fostered some wonderful children over a period of fifteen years. I had a public office as a Christian Science Practitioner for 13 years. The textbook I study, "Science and Health," was written in 1875 by Mary Baker Eddy. Eddy's book teaches healing principles. And, because science, invention, and the human language have evolved, I produced the first English revision and update of Eddy's book, "21st Century Science and Health." It can be read parallel to Eddy's latest edition.

Cheryl Petersen gave to: Love Wins: A Book About Heaven, Hell, and the Fate of Every Person Who Ever Lived by Rob Bell read in February, 2012	My rating:
Rob Bell covers Christianity with the doubter in mind. It is time to consciously move past the out-dated concepts of hell and heaven and Bell triggers the movement.

Cheryl Petersen gave to: Jerusalem: The Biography by Simon Sebag Montefiore read in January, 2012	My rating:
Too in-depth for me. Or rather, the history of Jerusalem is rampant with horror, that I just couldn't finish the book.
