    The Day Of The Lord Will Come

In the first part of chapter 1, Joel predicts that a locust plague will befall the people of Judah. In the ...read more

    This week it's 'Christian Aid Week' (in the UK). Christian Aid calls on Christians to 'give, act and pray.' All good things to do. But we might wonder, is it worth it? Isn't the situation for Planet Earth hopeless?
