What, Me Worry?
by Mike Ford
It is not uncommon to worry about one's financial situation. It has never been easy for most people to make ends meet, causing anxiety. Yet, in His Sermon on the Mount, Jesus Christ commands us not to worry about our lives, food, drink, or clothing. Considering what life was like in His day, Mike Ford explains, Jesus' simple solution to this common problem will work for Christians just as well now as then.

by Charles Whitaker
In Galatians 6:16, the apostle Paul refers to the church as "the Israel of God." Why? Why does he choose to compare God's elect with the patriarch Israel, whose name was originally "Jacob" until God Himself changed it. Charles Whitaker helps to connect the dots between the man who wrestled with God and those whom God has called into His church.
