Reaching for a Strong Hand From Someplace
In our November-December 2024 issue, we explored the many threats facing our world, the source of those threats, and God's plan to intervene in solving them once and for all.
Dear friends, I received the second issue of my subscription to Beyond Today magazine, and as with the previous issue, all the articles provide an outstanding view of the real situation in our nation and the world. The cover article is a must-read for everyone who still cannot understand that no human is able to solve the problems that are affecting our daily lives. The article "Are You Looking for Direction in All The Wrong Places?" is a wakeup call for those seeking the answers from the wrong sources, in "a deceived world gone astray."
Yes, keeping away from the lies of the devil and seeking the truth through our Lord is the only pathway to victory. I thank you for giving me the opportunity to read a magazine that provides a solid stand for the Christian faith of persons like myself. May our Lord and Savior keep everyone at Beyond Today blessed. -- From the Internet
My hat off for "Censorship, Intimidation & Rising Tyranny." I hope that Beyond Today will continue with publication of articles concerning politics, because nobody can live unaffected by politics in this world. -- Subscriber in Ontario, Canada
A response to "Persecuted for Righteousness" in the July-August 2024 issue
I so enjoyed the article about the believers in Bangladesh and their struggles with persecution. How inspiring to learn of their giving of water which is actually the gift of life to their tormentors. That gave me pause to reflect. I cannot honestly say that I would be as forgiving, so Christlike in my thoughts and actions if I faced the same problem. Thank you for presenting to this angry world this much-needed testimony. God bless and keep our brothers and sisters all over the world. God bless you and your life-changing work! Please accept my donation. I truly do look forward to receiving your magazine. It never disappoints as a source of inspiration. -- Subscriber in Pennsylvania
More letters regarding our free resources
I have read your magazine and am amazed at the research you do and the articles you create. Thank you for your magazine. -- From the Internet
I really enjoy reading all the booklets you have sent to me and all members of our Bible study group in this healthcare facility. We have Bible studies often during the week here. God bless you all. -- From the Internet
Notes from prisoners
Editor's note: Beyond Today television episodes are available to watch on an in-prison digital resources platform called Edovo. We receive many notes from prisoners, a few of which are printed below.
I have watched all 40 episodes of Beyond Today that are available to me on the Edovo app on my tablet. I have reached out to one of United Church of God's congregations, and have been in contact with one of the pastors. There are 13 Bible study aids that I am interested in reviewing. Thank you!
We all love your magazines, plus we watch your videos on prison tablets. They are great! You are great. Thank you all for everything you do. May the good Lord bless you.
Dear fellow brothers in Christ at Beyond Today, I am currently incarcerated in prison in New York. My addictions to drugs and alcoholism have contributed to my being taken away from my children and family. After losing my wife to Covid over two years ago I went into a downward spiral, drinking to numb the pain. I began using drugs, and I wish that I could have just put my faith in Jesus instead; it shames me greatly to say this. But you have given me optimism and have started the process of restoring my faith, bringing me closer to God. I am thankful for this experience, and I'm not mad anymore. I know that I was saved before things could have been worse for me, where maybe I could've seriously hurt or killed someone through reckless actions due to drugs and alcohol. I would like to send my deepest thank you to all of my brothers and sisters in Christ at Beyond Today. I would also like to ask for prayers for my son and daughter. I know that prayers are worth more than gold.
Location of church services
My question is in regards to seeing if there is a Church of God where I live. I'm looking for a church that teaches only truth. A lot of churches are scammers that lead you into the darkness. It's like the blind leading the blind nowadays. Please lead me to the right church. Thank you and may God bless you. Amen, and glory be to God. -- Reader in Queensland, Australia
Thanks for your letter! We have many congregations around Australia and the world; simply visit ucg.org/congregations and you'll find a map with all of them listed. Reach out to the pastor of the one closest to you and he'll be happy to assist you. We hope to see you soon!
