American writer, educator, theologian, and feminist pioneer EMMA CURTIS HOPKINS (1849-1925) may well be the most important woman in the history of religion in the United States. Influenced by Mary Baker Eddy and her "Christian Science," Hopkins developed the more metaphysical philosophy of New Thought, an early "New Age" outlook that encouraged its adherents to tap the latent powers of their potent minds. Known as "the teacher of teachers," Hopkins inspired her students, many of whom went on to become influential leaders of the New Thought movement, to give full expression to their creative genius.
In this 1888 book, considered by many her masterpiece, Hopkins explores the wisdom of Jesus Christ from twelve different perspectives, all of which demonstrate, in their own unique ways, how we all hold within us the mystical energy to transform ourselves, our lives, and the world itself for the better, and to fill our hearts with the joy of the infinite.

Scientific Christian Mental Practice
I have known of this author for a long time and was looking forward to reading this book.
And her teachings seem to be similar to those of Catherine Ponder and other such spiritual writers whom I admire. But she is of an even older generation, and this is perhaps why her writing seems so strange and can be somewhat incomprehensible.
Thus, I could not get through this book, though I may try one of the author's other works at a later stage, or again perhaps not.
In the present book the writing is repetitive and abstruse. She talks of Jesus Christ, Truth and Good.
She tells us, "My Good is my God". "I am seeking my Good, therefore, I am seeking my God".
"The acknowledgement that 'I am seeking my Good, and my Good is my God' is telling us a simple truth."
"The first name of God is Good, and the first name of the Good is God. There is Good for me and I ought to have it."
She continues like this for a long time.
The book is probably inspiring if one could get through it, which I could not.
If you do wish to tackle the book, you will need to own it, since you will have to devote much time to perusing it.
It contains much about healing and the healing she tells us of is based on denying that any form of disease exists.
"God is your Father and Mother. You have not inherited disease."
"You are free from all thoughts of disease. God is your life. --- God is your health. You cannot be threatened with disease in any part of your health, nor fear disease, nor yield to disease in any part of your body forever."
You will see her style from the above quotations and will be able to judge for yourself whether this is a book for you.
