Gilbert to present ‘God and Health’ International speaker Rob Gilbert will present “God and Health” on Thursday, April 18 at 7:30 p.m. The discussion will be held at the First Church of Christ, Scientist located at 259 Godwin Avenue in Midland Park. Gilbert will share ideas that will break down the longheld beliefs that assign the body to material theories of medicine and the mind to religion, thus hiding the power of spiritual understanding to heal. Exploring the early investigations of Mary Baker Eddy in the mind/body relationship, not unlike investigations going on today, Gilbert reveals the path that eventually led her to the discovery of Christian Science and the practice of spiritual healing that corrects misconceptions about God, secures health, and restores the body. Gilbert’s ideas are based on the teachings of Jesus as recorded in the Bible, and as discussed in “Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures” by Mary Baker Eddy. Gilbert is a member of the Christian Science Board. A practitioner and teacher of Christian Science healing, he holds a master’s of theology degree from Boston University School of Theology, where he majored in biblical studies. While serving as a chaplain in the United States Army, he had a variety of assignments, including military prisons, hospitals, and a tour of duty in Vietnam. Gilbert retired from the Army as a lieutenant colonel. More recently, he co-produced two educational videos for medical nursing schools and hospitals, answering commonly asked questions about the practice of spiritual healing, how it informs health care decisions, and spirituality in nursing care. He has addressed medical audiences on the practice of spiritual healing, college classes in women’s studies and alternative healing, high school classes on the subject of comparative religions, and has spoken in jails and prisons.
