THE NEW GUY
We all need real hope. There were four ladies in a nursing home one time that were sitting there talking, and the nurse brings in a new man to the facility. He was quite dapper for an older man, and one of the ladies asked him where he had been for so long.

THE NEW BABY...?
For weeks a six-year-old lad kept telling his first-grade teacher about the baby brother or sister that was expected at his house.

GOOD NEWS
Our world is desperately in need of some good news. Suzanne Jennings wrote this song in 1999:

My eyes were barely open, and my mouth began to yawn
Picked up the daily paper, every single headline said,
That this ole world is full of

In addition we have the record of Josephus, a Jewish writer who was not a Christian either, who records the life and death of Jesus of Nazareth.
He wrote this:
Now there was about this time Jesus a wise man, if it be lawful to call him a man; for he was a doer of wonderful works, a teacher of
