Whether you're taking a trip during the upcoming Christmas holiday, out and about searching for gifts, or watching the new movie about the RMS Titanic's ill-fated voyage, you'll find something in this issue.

The author of "Safe travel: a Titanic or an ark experience?" discusses the value of knowing God's presence no matter where you are. His article is accompanied by a reprint of a testimony from Lt. C. H. Lightoller, an officer on the Titanic, who tells about how he prayed when the ship was going down and threatening to take him with it. Air travelers, especially those who aren't thrilled with flying, will empathize with—and find new ideas from—the author's experience in "Ladies and gentlemen, enjoy your flight!"

"Where is God if tragedy strikes?" describes how a woman and her friend prayed after a mudslide buried a nearby ski village, and the results of their own and others' prayer. In "Wake up and watch," the author speaks of rejuvenation in her own life and in her church as she adopted a more spiritual approach.
