Editorial: "Truth that is not Afraid of Innovation" by Jose Cortes Jr.
|
 | |
Pastor Jose Cortes Jr.
|
Truth and Innovation are not enemies, I would even venture to say that Truth and Innovation must be best friends, and more so for people who are passionate about Reaching, Retaining, and Reclaiming North America with a lifestyle and a message of Compassion, Hope, and Wholeness.
I say this for the following reasons:
God, the source of all truth, is an innovative God. He created our universe, our world, and us, though there was a possibility for failure. He could have chosen not to innovate, but He used His innovative spirit combined with His love and came up with something new and beautiful. As sons and daughters of God, we have been given the ability and intelligence to be creative.

Compassion Boston by Tom Murray
A Historic Evangelistic Journey in the Northeast
|
 | | Compassion Boston |
Over the past several months an army of mission focused lay evangelists have embarked on a multi-year, commitment to evangelize one of the most influential cities on the planet - Boston, MA. Our Greater Boston area churches are working together in their sphere of influence and in their strength for one common effort -  Compassion Boston.
Compassion Boston ministers to practical needs and celebrates the joy, peace, and hope that is found in the gracious love of Jesus. Compassion Boston is fashioned after the example of Christ Himself because we recognize that "Christ's methods alone will give true success in reaching the people. The Savior mingled with men as one who desired their good. He showed His sympathy for them, ministered to their needs, and won their confidence. Then he bade them, Follow Me."

How Millennials Perceive the Adventist Church
|
|
 What perceptions do Millennials have of the Adventist Church? If someone feels excluded, underestimated, stifled--if they perceive the church as superficial and simplistic--these experiences could leave a lasting impression on anyone. Especially for young people, experiences in church and perceptions about the church can have a significant impact.
 In a Ministry Magazine interview with my friend and colleague, Dr. Roger Dudley, Professor Emeritus at the Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary, he shared what his research revealed about the perceptions of next generations: Read More...
