"Is the United States Still a Moral Nation?"
I have just finished your article on whether the United States is still a moral nation. You did a good job of unraveling a tangled misrepresentation of the morals issue. And the article truly brings the issue to the feet of the reader, compelling him to action. I appreciate the research and the crafting.

World News and Trends
I wish to continue receiving The Good News. My favorite section has been "World News and Trends." It gives me the opportunity to know current issues all over the world in just two pages. But please include stories about African countries and South American countries in subsequent editions of your magazine.

The Word of God online
I could not sleep and was on the computer doing some research. I had grown tired and the thought came to mind to look up God's Word. So I typed in "Jesus Christ" and found there were 18 million choices to choose from.
I selected yours and for the next two or three hours, I have been reading your Bible study program. It has easily provided me with a few hours of complete enjoyment and fulfillment. I am a believer with no doubt of whom my Creator and Lord and Savior are. But like most people, I am not as dutiful about reading as I should be. I have renewed ambition and desire to further understand our Father's desire for our lives. Thanks for this wonderful opportunity to study the Word of God online.

Understanding the Bible at last
I want you to know that I have learned more about the Bible in the last year and a half than I learned all my life before. And I'm 78 years old. Thanks to you people, I'm very committed to it and I read at least two hours a day. Before I never understood a thing that I read. You have taught me how to look up the Scriptures and fully understand what I am reading.

Australasian readers
Enclosed please find my card to receive The Good News, which I started to read at my doctor's office. I also would like to receive the booklets mentioned in other copies of the magazine. I believe we must as Christians really understand these things, especially in relation to the rise of Islam and wars around the world—like those involving the Middle East and the United States.
—Reader, Mentone, Victoria
It is great that you continue to distribute The Good News of Jesus Christ to all parts of Australia and the Oceania region, including Papua New Guinea (PNG). Despite PNG being regarded as a Christian nation, reading and studying deeper into God's Word is lacking. By reading thoroughly and diligently through your inspirational Good News magazine and booklets, I found the information to be convincing and containing great truths. I was thus motivated to distribute some copies of my magazines to friends who developed the interest to study them as well.
—Reader, Papua New Guinea
Thank you very much for all your magazines which I always find interesting, informative and stimulating. I have particularly enjoyed your booklets Creation and Evolution: Does It Really Matter What You Believe? and Life's Ultimate Question: Does God Exist? They have often been a topic of animated discussions with my friends.
—Reader, Leabrook, South Australia
Ethiopian reader
I appreciate your tireless efforts in publishing The Good News and distributing it for the readers who are keenly interested. It is very helpful in teaching Christians how to understand the Bible, how to give answers to questions in the Bible and how to practice it in our daily lives.
—B.F., Ethiopia
Reaching Egyptian youth
I just wanted to encourage you that your work gets a lot of people to Jesus Christ in my country. I saw many of the Egyptian youth touched by your words and their hearts moved to the right way. I am praying to God to see your magazine in the Arabic language one day. I am sure it will be a great project for the ministry of God.
—W.W.R., Cairo, Egypt
Brazilian reader's questions
One day by chance I linked up with the United Church of God Web site and found the rich material that is available all over the world, and amazingly, totally free. I just want to know a little more about you. Are you an evangelical or Catholic church (as we know it here in Brazil) or some other denomination?
—K.F., Brazil
We are neither Catholic nor Protestant nor even evangelical in the usual sense. Our name, the United Church of God, an International Association, signifies that we are united in our commitment to faithfully follow the way of life and the mission of the Church revealed and established by God and His Son, Jesus Christ, in the Holy Scriptures. To understand our mission and key activities, please request or download our free booklet This Is the United Church of God.
Attending a United congregation
I am a new believer as I have read the Bible for the first time. From what I have read, most Christian churches fall short of the commandments of God. Yours is the first and only church that I have found that agrees with what I believe to be the truth. I am looking for a church here in the Colorado area that I might attend. Can you help me find a real Bible-believing church here?
— P.B., Colorado
The United Church of God welcomes to its church services anyone who wishes to worship in peace and to learn more about the Bible. The Church has hundreds of congregations around the world dedicated to serving God and doing His work. If you would like to talk to one of our pastors, please contact the appropriate regional office listed in the editorial staff box on page 2 of this magazine. We have several congregations in Colorado.
