From advertisements in your social media feed to tabloid magazines at the supermarket checkout line, the self-help headlines at the start of the new year promise an enticing trifecta elixir: more happiness, better health and greater wealth.

But what about navigating a runaway, godless culture that embraces vice over virtue and which champions symbolism over substance, spurning critical thinking for politically correct tropes?

As we shove off into 2022, here are eleven inspired verses from the Scriptures that Christians can cling to regardless of the storms on this year’s sea:

# 1 “Anyone who trusts in Him will never be disgraced.” – Romans 10:11

Prenatal testing for rare disorders during pregnancy has become a routine practice for women looking to be sure their preborn baby is healthy.

But according to recent analysis provided in a comprehensive article by The New York Times, these tests are often wrong. And not just some of the time. A vast majority of the time.

The tests check for small pieces of missing chromosomes, called microdeletions, missing chromosomes and extra chromosomes. These abnormalities cause various disabilities.

The Times examined various studies to find out how accurate the five most common microdeletion tests are and found “that positive results on those tests are incorrect about 85 percent of the time.”

The microdeletion test for DiGeorge syndrome, which can “cause heart defects and delayed language acquisition,” has an 81% chance a positive result is incorrect.

Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers, a Democrat and abortion supporter, vetoed five commonsense pro-life pieces of legislation passed by the pro-life, Republican-led Wisconsin state legislature. Abortion activists have embraced a radical, all-or-nothing position on abortion and it is deeply out-of-touch with how the majority of Americans think about abortion.

This isn’t the first time Evers has vetoed pro-life legislation. Evers was elected governor in 2019 and has been vetoing pro-life legislation ever since. Unfortunately, pro-life lawmakers don’t have enough votes to override the governor’s veto, so those sensible pro-life policies won’t be enacted until there’s a change in leadership.

In a statement released by Evers on his vetoes, he remarked, “I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again today: as long as I’m governor, I will veto any legislation that turns back the clock on reproductive rights in this state — and that’s a promise.”

Wait a second? How does a law requiring an abortionist to provide medical care to a baby who survives an abortion turn back the clock on “reproductive rights?” It doesn’t.
