Life of Faith 2022/04

The Life of Faith - The Many Facets of the Church
an interdenominational monthly magazine published by the Christian Missionary Society

In the April issue you will find:

Caleb and Haley Patty on their mission in Albania; Russia, Putin and the Church; We know what we believe and why; Responsibilities and pressure to perform.

* topic: Do we know what we believe?
Would you sit in a wheelbarrow carried by a tightrope walker over a precipice? David Novak shows that belief in the resurrection is something similar. Is Jesus really the only way to God? How to answer the questions of unbelievers? Jiří Unger, Mark Pickering and Peter Saunders reflect on the topic.
+ cartoon joke by Pavel Bosman

* interview - Caleb and Haley Patty: We learn not to be in control
Both are children of missionaries, and although the call to mission cannot be inherited, they are also serving in mission, specifically in Albania. In the interview, they describe what it is like to work alongside local Christians, depend on their neighbours and adapt to a different culture.
