The cover of the May issue depicts what the Bible tells us in Psalm 127:3 — that “children are a gift from the Lord. The children born to us are our special reward.” (New Life Version). As we celebrate the children among us, let us also not forget that we are all God’s children (Galatians 3:26) and continue to walk in childlike faith with our Father.
The Bible doesn’t talk about 21st century family struggles, so what should we do?
In this second instalment of our Methodist Social Principles essays, focusing on The Sphere of the Family, Dr Cheah-Foo Fung Fong shares how the restoration of God’s original design for individuals and families starts with a relationship with Jesus. Through the transforming power of Christ, may we then walk with the broken and hurting so that God’s kingdom may be real to them.
