Evangelism by Shivering and Shaking?

by Jack Hoehn  |  April 8, 2022  | A small Adventist church in my hometown of colleges, universities, and health care institutions is closer to the railroad tracks and the state prison than to the manicured lawns, sidewalks, libraries, lecture halls and church of Walla Walla University just a couple of miles away. It has […]

Impaired Driving and Miraculous Protection

by Jack Hoehn  | March 28, 2022 | An email this month sent out by my local conference suggested the following heartwarming story to encourage church offerings.

Snow White and Rose Red

by Jack Hoehn Fairy tales are of questionable reputation. I was not nourished on them, but I doubt that today children could grow up not knowing about “The 3 Little Pigs and The Big Bad Wolf” or “Little Red Riding Hood,” sharing the same durable long-toothed villain. Although “Goldilocks” doesn’t get traumatized by a wolf, […]

Jennings MD is a prominent Chattanooga psychiatrist who graduated from University of Tennessee Health Science Center College of Medicine in 1990 and did a psychiatry residency at the Dwight D.

A Book to Study, Not Read

30 June 2021  | Reviewed by Jack Hoehn Stephen C. Meyer is very easy to listen to and very understandable when he participates in the many debates he has had presenting the scientific basis of Intelligent Design. His two previous major books, Darwin’s Doubt (2013) and Signature in the Cell (2009), can both be read […]

Jesus Taxes the Wealthy

by Jack Hoehn  |  June 11, 2021  | One year ago today, I wrote an article I need to keep rereading. It was published June 20, 2020. It was the response of a white Adventist to the Black Lives Matter movement, and a recognition that all white people have a generational debt from our ancestors that […]

The Walla Walla Jesus

by Jack Hoehn  |  21 January 2021  | What happens with great expectation or with great disappointments? How are Americans reacting to life post-elections?  How are Adventists feeling about our expectations?  Did you know there was once a “Walla Walla Jesus?” The town of Walla Walla and its Seventh-day Adventist Walla Walla University (in the […]

Adventists and Alcohol

by Jack Hoehn | December 1, 2020 | Adventists have learned the details of the church’s “Health Message” are inspired good advice and not all divine oracle. For some, this has led to discounting many things the church promoted as the “Adventist Lifestyle.” Some Adventist health practices have become universally accepted good advice but the […]

Will God Forgive Us for Our Theology?

A Book Review by Jack Hoehn   |  9 November 2020  | Dr. Richard Rice is a theology professor well known at Loma Linda University and before that at La Sierra University but likely better known outside Adventism than inside it. Perhaps this book can help change that.[1] The title of this review comes from the […]

The Wrath of God

by Jack Hoehn  |  September 24, 2020  | Nothing in the Bible can be more disturbing to the modern reader than being presented with texts about the “anger” or “wrath” of God. While humans are advised by Scripture to “be angry and sin not,” it is difficult for us to hold guiltless anyone, especially an […]

A Most Beautiful and Most Wonderful Book

Reviewed by Jack Hoehn  | July 31, 2020 | There are many good people I would like to share this book with. I would love to share it with every young Adventist from high school to doctoral program who loves nature and wants to be a scientist. I would love to share it with every […]

White Insight

Why are white people like me kept uncomfortably guilty by the jealousy of God. Why must we bear our fathers’ sins? by Jack Hoehn  |  26 June 2020  | I don’t own one of those idiotic KKK headdresses. I have no Confederate flag. My ancestors never kept slaves. Some of my best friends are black. […]

Adventist Tomorrow: Fresh Ideas While Waiting for Jesus, by Jack Hoehn

ADVENTIST TOMORROW by Jack Hoehn has become the best-selling book that Adventist Today has published, selling over 850 copies so far (480+ in the paperback and  370+ in the electronic Kindle version).  It is being read by Adventist College and University students.  It is being read in Canada, in Australia,  in South Africa, in Kenya and in Spain, Germany, Norway, Sweden, and Denmark.

Who is reading Jack’s book?  Jonathan Butler said it is on his reading list.  Smuts Van Rooyen says he is enjoying it.  Pastors John Hughson and Kenneth Preston have highly recommended it.  Pastor Kevin McGill in Seattle quoted from the book in one of his sermons.   Carmen Lau has read the book.  Jennifer Ogden, Beverly Beem, Linda Nottingham,  Cherri-Ann Farquharson, Gina Olberg have all read it with positive reviews.

Even Clifford Goldstein told Jack he liked the chapter on Intoxicants and got a new idea from the chapter Not a Rib, “but not much else.” (Jack accepts this as good a review from Cliff as he could ever hope for!)

You too don’t have to agree with Jack to read the book.  The ideas discussed in the book are important for all caring Adventists to carefully consider.  It is up to you to decide what you want to do about these issues.  Is there a future for Adventism as well as a past?  And what might that future look like?

Readers who like the book say:   It’s a good read.  I have enjoyed it immensely.  A very valuable piece of work.  Once I started it, I could not put it down.  Very well written.  An unprecedented and transformative rescue of Adventist thought.  A genuine pleasure and a relief.  Added very richly to my heart, soul and mind.

The book is good for individual consideration.  It can be even better as the basis for group discussions — Sabbath School classes, book clubs,  classrooms, workers’ retreats focusing on the challenges of tomorrow.  After you read your copy share it with someone else, or gift them their own copy.   There are 92,000 SDA congregations in the world, most of  them should be having  discussions on important topics like these.
