Glad Tidings (full title: Glad Tidings of the Kingdom of God) is a free Bible magazine published monthly by the Christadelphians (Brethren in Christ). The magazine was launched in 1884.

The stated aims of the magazine are:

:* to encourage study of the Bible as God's inspired message to men;

:* to call attention to the Divine offer of forgiveness of sins through Jesus Christ;

:* to warn men and women that soon Christ will return to Earth as judge and ruler of God’s worldwide Kingdom.

To this end the magazine contains articles such as A Closer Look at Bible Prophecy, Jews and Arabs to Find Lasting Peace and Three Steps to a Happier Life.

"Glad Tidings" is the tenth and final song on Northern Irish singer-songwriter Van Morrison's 1970 album Moondance.

Glad Tidings is a 1953 British comedy film directed by Wolf Rilla and starring Barbara Kelly, Raymond Huntley and Ronald Howard. It was based on the play of the same title by R.F. Delderfield and made at the Nettlefold Studios in Walton-upon-Thames. The film's art direction was by John Stoll. The backers Eros Films were pleased enough with the film's success to adapt another Delderfield play as Where There's a Will in 1955.
