Each issue will have regular features, including two editorials, a regular news feature that analyzes world trends and a regular series titled "Christ vs. Christianity" (which takes commonly held religious beliefs and shows how Christ taught something entirely different).

Other articles in the inaugural January/February 2014 issue include:

• "Neither Shall They Learn War Anymore."
• "World Peace: How It Will Come."
• "Why Am I Suffering?"
• "Seven Keys to Better Relationships."
• "Change Your Life in 2014."
• "Bible Software: Tools to Maximize Your Study."
• "Can You Handle the Truth?"

"Our editorial goal is to preach the gospel of the coming Kingdom of God as Jesus Christ did in Mark 1:14-15," said Clyde Kilough, who heads the team producing the new publication.

"We want it to be meaty, relevant, practical, encouraging and challenging—and we wanted to capture that sense in the title of the magazine. Discern is a word that appears in a number of scriptures and basically captures what is required to understand and apply the Word of God.

"Discernment is really at the heart of the matter—scripturally, one has to discern between good and evil, the signs of the times, the law of God—and that requires spiritual thought. Discern carries with it a call for action on the part of the reader. It implies you will have choices to make—choices that can change your life for the better!"

"People all over the world are searching for answers to life's biggest questions," said Jim Franks, president of the Church of God, a Worldwide Association, Inc., which sponsors the new magazine. "Science simply cannot answer—and religion has not adequately answered—the moral and spiritual questions we wonder about: Why do we exist? Does my life have purpose? What happens after I die?" Discern magazine and the associated LifeHopeandTruth.com website seek to address these big questions.
