Issue 124

Dear Readers

Here’s some good news: the cold chill of winter is now making room for the warmth of spring — a season that signifies new beginnings, which is reflected in this new edition of KeepTheFaith

We are now in Lent, that period of the year which directs us to Easter — the most important event in the Christian calendar. Christianity exists because of Easter. If Jesus hadn’t died on the cross, risen again and conquered death, Christianity would not exist and millions of people throughout history would not have experienced the life-changing power of God’s grace.

Bishop Mike Royal, General Secretary of Churches Together in England, reminds us of Easter’s ability to touch people — no matter where they are on life’s journey — in his article about this momentous event. You can also read testimonies of individuals who have personally experienced the power of Easter to change lives.

March is also Women’s Month. Women contribute so much to this world, and they also comprise the backbone of many churches. With this in mind, KeepTheFaith has turned the spotlight on 24 Christian women making a difference in the Church and wider society. There is also content about the Mothers of Zion — mature, older women who are held in high regard within the Church; How to improve the mother/daughter relationship; and Standing with our sisters in Afghanistan. Check out our interview with Lola Tomorrow, an American businesswoman who desires to help Christian women build successful prosperous businesses. We say, “Bring it on!”

And, of course, KeepTheFaith is filled with interesting, informative and inspiring content to help you in all aspects of your life – whether it’s your emotional health, fitness, money or peace of mind.

If you enjoy KeepTheFaith and would like to order a box of magazines to distribute to your church or community, drop us a line. Please help us to spread the good news of what God is doing in people’s lives, communities and the wider world.

Enjoy.
