Here's a link to a most interesting interview at the Mary Baker Eddy library. The interviewee is Ruth Duck, who has written the words of several hymns in our 2017 hymn book:
439 As a fire is meant for burning
509 In Christ there is no East or West
590 To God compose a song of joy
593 We gather together
One of the interesting aspects of her work includes making the language of hymns (and worship in general) less male-gendered. She also speaks about healing.
Jonathan Eder and Ryan Vigil spoke to Ruth.
