King James and the Witches
The witch hunts from the era of King James I have echoes in today's political landscape. Just as religious authorities once twisted Bible verses to justify persecuting women, religious nationalists now use faith-based arguments to marginalize and restrict roles for women in society.

I've Already Read the Bible
We each have an arc in our lifetime Bible-reading habits, and some people eventually choose to set aside regular reading. Others maintain the practice despite having read the Bible many times. Bible reading can be like therapeutic coaching that provides perspective, correction, and renewal, much like how athletes and artists require ongoing training.

For Christians, change is a crucial aspect of living a spiritual life. While we tend to want to keep things just as they are, God has different plans. God pushes us to grow and develop in a gradual process that requires trust.

Breaking Free from Burnout
Burnout arrives with recognizable signs, and there are biblical strategies to overcome it. Mitigating burnout requires rest, reliance on God, reframing purpose, honest prayer, trusting God's timing, and community support. Elijah's story and various Bible verses illustrate these points and can encourage us when facing burnout.
Press On is a Christadelphian journal. We publish engaging perspectives, expressed with enthusiasm and love for other believers. Press On aspires to stimulate growth in the Christadelphian community by helping it draw strength from its diversity, following the spirit of 1 Cor 12, and Rom 12 — one body, made up of different parts, all of whom are dependent on each other. As in the first century, our community of faith can benefit from both progressive and traditional perspectives so long as they are explored compassionately and without factionalism. That is what we are trying to do. As a listener of Press On, you may come across perspectives you have not encountered before. Some topics you may immediately resonate with and be thrilled by. Others you might disagree with. Our goal is that either way, you come away without feeling talked down to and with something worth considering.
