Hey folks, my name is Johnny Artivannis and this is Dialin. I want to thank you all for continuing to support Dialin Ministries, and I do pray that the resources that we are producing are a benefit to you personally and to your community and your local church. There's been some exciting things that we've been doing the last couple months that I want to make sure that you're aware of.

and whose preaching and writing has really

shaped my life.

And that's Pastor Alistair Begg.

And I ask him about how the character of God, the promises of God, buoy our anxious hearts

and provide us with comfort and confidence in a world of chaos.

And in that regard, let's dial in.
