The Herald of Christian Science is a magazine published in multiple languages by the Christian Science Publishing Society. It was first published as a German magazine in 1903, and grew to include other languages as well. The magazine is currently published in four languages with informal translations in 10 other languages including braille.[1] [2] [3] The Herald was the third Christian Science periodical after the Journal and Sentinel, which were first published in 1883 and 1898 respectively.[4] Until the 1990s the magazine was bilingual, with English and translated texts side by side. Along with articles and accounts of healing, each issue includes a directory of Christian Science churches, practitioners and other listings applicable to each language.[1] [5] There is also a Herald radio program.[1] Back issues of the Herald, along with the Journal and Sentinel, are made available at Christian Science Reading Rooms and also at some university and public libraries.[6]
