Host: Doreen Virtue

Show Summary
In this episode of New Age to Christ with Doreen Virtue, Doreen reflects on one of the most comforting truths in Scripture: God is good. In a world filled with anxiety, discouragement, spiritual warfare, and troubling news,
believers are reminded to turn first to the Lord for wisdom, strength, comfort, and peace.
Drawing from passages such as Psalm 100:5, Psalm 34:8, Proverbs 3:5, Psalm 23, Psalm 73, 1 John 1:5, Mark 10:18, and Romans 8:28, Doreen explains that God’s goodness is not occasional or situational. It is part of His eternal, holy, and unchanging character.
This devotional encourages believers to remember God’s past faithfulness, to praise Him for both seen and unseen blessings, and to trust Him even when present circumstances feel confusing, painful, or unfair.
