Recent Article In The Herald Journal
- By Jim S. Brooks - Roebuck, SC
The credibility of the Good News of God in the cross of Jesus Christ has been attacked since the days Jesus walked the earth. Such attacks have even intensified since the message was first revealed, entrusted to and recorded for posterity by Jesus’ personally chosen Apostles until this day. The larger the audience, the more widespread and varied the attacks. The most recent one is in an article by Chris Highland in the Herald Journal, Spartanburg, S.C., March 10, 2023. Chris raised the issue of a possible contradiction in messages between Jesus and Jesus’ personally chosen Apostle to the Gentiles, Paul. The article is subtly offered in a supposed attempt to better understand and appreciate Jesus, despite Paul! It is alluded in the article that Christianity and the Christian life might be better if there was no message from a self-appointed Apostle Paul, who it is claimed, never met Jesus and actually appointed himself.

- By OneHope
POMPANO BEACH, Fla. -- OneHope, an international Christian ministry, has crossed the threshold of sharing God's Word with two billion children since 1987.
To commemorate this incredible milestone, Bob Hoskins, OneHope's founder, traveled to El Salvador, where OneHope's programs launched in 1987. Watch the live recording of this special moment here.
The vision of OneHope was born when Hoskins received a vision of Satan attacking the children of the world. "For days, I was weeping for what I saw--millions of children being slaughtered--and prayed, 'Lord, what am I seeing and what should I do?'" Bob said. "And the Lord said, 'The only thing that will save them is truth, and the truth is in My Word. Take My Word to the children of the world and do it through leaders."

- By Christian Community Credit Union
SAN DIMAS, Calif. -- Christian Community Credit Union (CCCU) has donated $10,000 to aid in the release of MAF pilot Ryan Koher who has been in a Mozambican high-security prison since November 4, 2022. Koher was on a mission to fly supplies from southern Mozambique to an orphanage in the northern part of the country where there has been insurgent activity. Unfortunately, what should have been a routine flight for the greater good, turned into false allegations. Police believed that the supplies were to support terrorists in the region, a belief that simply doesn't align with the facts. Ryan has been detained for nearly four months, still waiting for specific charges to be filed.
