The habit that could make you rich!

Beyond the Blues: Trusting God when bills and burdens pile up
Blue Monday is just around the corner—the time when bills arrive, days feel darker, and motivation runs low. As Christians, we have a God who promises hope, peace, and life in all its fullness. So why do we still struggle? And more importantly, how can we experience the full life Jesus offers? Psychotherapist, counsellor, and lecturer at the London School of Theology, Dr Ike Odina, joined Lydia Bennett to unpack this.
What happens when healing doesn’t come?
Dr. Claire Gilbert knows this struggle well. An author, speaker, and mentor, Claire was diagnosed with myeloma—a cancer of the blood—at age 54 and has lived with it ever since. Her book Miles to Go Before I Sleep: Letters on Hope, Death and Learning to Live chronicles her journey through illness and faith. She joined Lydia Bennett to share how her faith sustained her through the diagnosis.
