My mother-in-law makes unkind remarks; my husband says, “Ignore them”

3 October 2022 | Dear Aunt Sevvy, Every time I go to my in-laws’ house, my mother-in-law throws little passive-aggressive barbs my way about how I’m raising her grandchildren—most of them about food. Like she’ll say to the kids over dinner, “Sorry, Grandma doesn’t have all the prepackaged frozen foods you are accustomed to.” Or […]

Why We So Desperately Need Role Models

by Hannele Ottschofski | 30 September 2022 Yochi Rappeport’s blog in the Times of Israel on September 13 about role models led me to think about the influence of what we Adventists see and experience.

Why Is the Adventist Church Successful?

by Carsten Thomsen | 29 September 2022 | Some of the most long-lived organizations are churches and religious groups. Some of the great world religions are thousands of years old, and Christianity has been around for 2,000 years. Adventism is less than two hundred years old, but has many characteristics of a long-lived, successful religion. […]

Strawn, in his book The Old Testament Is Dying, draws an analogy between the contemporary Christian church’s competence in reading the Old Testament and the ability to speak a language fluently. Acknowledging the limitations of any analogy, he argues that the church is losing its ability to understand the […]

The Strange Story of Walter Harper and His Wives

by Amalia Goulbourne | 27 September 2022 | In many Adventist spaces Ellen White’s books are referred to as “the Spirit of Prophecy,” as though her writings are a simple and all-encompassing rulebook and commentary; however, members can greatly benefit from studying the letters of advice she gave regarding real-life situations. One of the most […]

Would our pioneers approve of 28 Fundamental Beliefs?

26 September 2022 | Dear Aunt Sevvy, Recently someone shared with me this quote from J.N. Loughborough from the October 8, 1861, Review and Herald. The first step of apostasy is to get up a creed, telling us what we shall believe. The second is, to make that creed a test of fellowship. The third […]

by Tuwan Ussery White | 23 September 2022 | We often think of white supremacy as the Ku Klux Klan and other violent groups. However, historical evidence shows that segregationism is a type of white supremacy too. In the year 1890 the Seventh-day Adventist church voted a policy of racial segregation that lasted for the […]

ATSS: Jim Walters on “Why We Need Religion”

21 September 2022 | Humans need a purpose for which to live, and religion addresses this existential need more adequately than any other discipline. Religion functions at the affective level, where we really live; its content may sometimes be fuzzy and even wrong, but that’s secondary. Teacher: James W. Walters is professor emeritus of ethics […]

ADVENTIST TOMORROW—Fresh Ideas While Waiting for Jesus, by Jack Hoehn

ADVENTIST TOMORROW is a best-selling book for Adventist Today, with over 1,000 copies sold so far. A Sabbath-school at LLU has discussed selected chapters. It is being read by Adventist College and University students. It is read in Canada, in Australia, in South Africa, in Kenya and in Spain, Germany, Norway, Sweden, and Denmark. 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 are important and are very much topics of current interest. What is the Adventist view on abortions as needed health care or murder? Should Adventists vote–then who or what for? Should Adventists vote to protect the US 2^nd amendment or return to our historic position of “not-bearing arms.” Can we accept science and still believe in God? Is Genesis 1 an inspired summary of Creation or a detailed news report?

Readers are positive: “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.” “An author should… make you think and maybe think a little differently than you did before. Jack…has accomplished this in spades!” “Added very richly to my heart, soul and mind.”
