The latest issue of JOY! Magazine is now on sale
Our August issue features renowned worship leader Matt Redman on the cover, as he returns to South Africa for a series of worship nights. In this heartfelt interview, Matt reflects on reverence in worship, writing songs that hold to truth, and what it truly means to keep Christ at the centre.
Inside, you’ll find powerful teachings on discerning spiritual gifts, understanding why God created Adam and Eve despite knowing they would fall, and learning to navigate cultural Christianity with Biblical clarity. Be encouraged by stirring stories of modern-day miracles from the African mission fields and bold testimonies of lives transformed by the Gospel.
We also unpack relevant topics like navigating life’s storms, making healthy choices in church life, and how the early Church shaped Christian doctrine. Regular favourites include Bible quizzes, Ask Val, fascinating facts, and uplifting columns to equip and inspire.
