Americans are more than ever captivated by the apocalypse. But the apocalypse is not simply about the future, it reveals a Face. The closer we look, the more of it we see.

When you lose a loved one you never forget their face. The Apocalypse reveals Jesus' face and invites us never to forget it.

Internalizing the Adventist distinctives under the Lordship of Christ forms the foundation for becoming a Contagious Adventist. Are you one?

A Song from the Inferno

Our most distinguishing characteristic is built right into our name: Seventh-day Adventists. What relationship does the seventh day have to our devotion to Jesus as our Lord? How does it enhance that devotion and make it contagious?

Being Seventh-day Adventists distinguishes us from the rest of the Christian world. But we are first Christians, then Seventh-day Adventists. In sharing our Adventist faith, we should always put first things first.

How could those who knew Jesus so well, and saw His miracles, not believe He was the long awaited Messiah? Why is faith so elusive? Do you sometimes doubt? Is there an antidote?
