“Pastors and Teachers from Mary Baker Eddy’s Youth: Part Three, Reverend Enoch Corser”

Fall/Winter 1996 issue

Mary Baker Eddy often spoke reverently and affectionately of the religion of her youth, and particularly of the “grand old divines” who taught her as a child and young woman. This issue of Library Notes is the third in a series that focuses on some of those pastors and teachers. This article, as well as others in the series, discusses the religion which the young Mary Baker imbibed earnestly and eagerly, as well as questioningly. It sank so deeply into her thoughts and heart that she would write in later years, long after her discovery of Christian Science: “I never left the Church, either in heart or in doctrine; I but began where the Church left off” (Message to The Mother Church for 1902, p. 2).
