> Kyle Schaberg, “My ‘great concern,’ ” Sentinel, September 8, 2025

This article was a game changer for me. After days of a frustrating situation, I picked up this Sentinel and found my answer. I could continue being annoyed and frustrated or, as the author found in Hymn 224 in the Christian Science Hymnal, “Henceforth my great concern shall be / To love and praise Thee more” (John Ryland). All day, I put away negative thinking and praised God for His ever-present goodness. This filled me with joy, and the next day, two beautiful resolutions took place. Thank you for all of our periodicals!

> James Shepherd, “Keeping prayer simple,” Sentinel, September 8, 2025

Many ideas in this article helped me to rethink how I pray—in particular, not always needing to find a perfect statement or just the right words. Too often prayer can get stuck on those very things.
