Why This Magazine? This magazine takes inspiration from two key passages in scripture: Mark 1:14-15 and Philippians 4:8. The first passage shares the greatest news ever proclaimed —THE GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM— while the second encourages a life that reflects those values and is pleasing to God. The Worldwide Church of God (WCG) produced a magazine called The Good News, which aimed to provide valuable support and encour- agement to those seeking the path to eternal life, while also proclaiming the good news of God’s soon-coming Kingdom. In the same spirit, A Good Report, published by the Church of God Assembly (CGA), seeks to car- ry on this commission, offering insight and encourage - ment to both our members and visitors. We trust you will find each issue informative, helpful and inspiring.
