As he walked the streets of the city, the prostitutes, pimps, runaways, drug addicts and hustlers he saw, filled his heart with anguish. "All true passion of life comes out of anguish," David Wilkerson said, years after founding an international drug rehabilitation program. Teen Challenge has one of the highest success rates in the world. Wilkerson continued, "Search the scriptures and you'll find that when God determined to recover a ruined situation, He would share His own anguish for what God saw happening... He would find a praying man and He would take that man and literally baptize him in anguish."

Mike loved to hike. You'd find him on a trail in all kinds of weather...that was until he got sick. Doctors think it started with a tick bite. These tiny insects can carry an infection-causing bacteria that spreads to joints, hearts and the nervous system. Mike couldn't remember getting bitten by a tick, but months of chronic illness had turned into years. He's prayed for healing, others have prayed for healing, but God hasn't granted it. "This is discouraging," Mike admits, "but like it says in scripture, God keeps carrying me onward."

She's raising 27 AIDS orphans while living next to the mass graves of those who've fallen to the disease. And yet, Makena shares the source of her hope with a quote from C.S. Lewis, saying, "Our longing for ultimate beauty, for perfect justice, for unending love, is a reflection of the greater reality that awaits us beyond the confines of this world. The weight of glory is the deep yearning within us, drawing us toward our true home and reminding us that we are made for something greater."[1] [1]Lewis, C.S., (Clive Staples). "Introduction."

Antonio Monda has asked a lot of people this question: "Do you believe in God?" Monda asked everyone from strangers on the street to politicians and celebrities, about their belief or unbelief, saying, "I think it's the most important subject of...all times."[1] But for many, questions about faith bring up doubts. It's commonly thought that the opposite of faith is doubt, in the same way that many believe that the opposite of courage is fear. But we learn to be brave while feeling afraid. In the same way, we explore, strengthen, and grow in faith while wrestling with doubts. We start the faith journey holding questions and maybe even accusations against God. Then God does His work in our lives.

Ever been asked, "What's your sign?" Since the beginning of time, we've wanted to know what's coming next, turning to fortune-tellers, tea leaves in teacups and horoscopes. Astrology is often viewed as little more than a fun conversation opener. But God alone is our only sure source of self-knowledge, understanding and guidance for the future. One writer puts it this way: "Astrology is an attempt by humans to find God's divine will through means other than what God has appointed and... attempts to attribute to the stars and planets power that belongs to God alone."[1] [1] Grandchamp, Greg. “What Should Christians Know about the Study of Astrology?” Christianity.Com, 11 July 2022, www.christianity.com/wiki/cults-and-other-religions/what-should-christians-know-about-the-study-of-astrology.html.
