The May issue of JOY! Magazine is now on sale

Our latest issue of JOY! is bursting at the seams with biblical content that will encourage, inspire, and educate all our loyal readers. For our cover story, we feature a powerful and incredibly personal interview with Herman Mashaba, a politician who is seeking to bring God back into our country.

Other important articles in this issue include a section on mental health, asking questions such as “What does it mean to guard your heart?”, “Am I a weak Christian if I have to get help for my mental health?”, “What is biblical happiness?”, as well as an encouraging feature on 3 ways to win the battle for your mind. We also share some topical features on the end times, including an infographic on Europe, as well as on transhumanism (and what the Bible says about this).

As always, we seek to report on real life, real people, and real Christianity. Our magazine is filled with devotions, testimonies, reader participation, competitions, and more. Don’t miss out on this phenomenal issue!
