TO OUR READERS

The Editors

"Honesty is the best policy" trips off the tongue so readily. Yet, a pervasive sense of dis honesty seems to influence the way many people relate to government, to their jobs or their businesses, to academics, and even to their husbands and wives, neighbors and co-workers. The dishonesty then seems so easily to open the door to cheating.

The authors in this week's focus tell how they dealt with dishonesty and cheating from a radical, spiritual standpoint. As you'll see, being honest helps people discover how wonderful they really are.

Also in this issue, you'll learn how a woman found comfort as she reached out to God following her dad's death. Another author tells how he stopped a recurring nightmare through prayer.

"The love that bonds a community together" explains how prayer helped the author in the face of potential violence. And anyone dealing with discord in menstrual cycles will find encouragement in "Life cycles without suffering." The "Introduction to the Bible" series continues this week with "Paul's good works." And the editorial—"What are today's driving forces?"—urges us to recognize the control we all have over our thoughts and, therefore, our lives.
