Offering

"How long will you go limping?" Aging movements do that, don't they? And yet the Elijah movement in the end will be a race through earth's final storm. The Elijah secret is in the seven-fold prayer.

We have no king but Caesar!" Strange words coming from the mouths of religious people who hated Rome. A demonically inspired collusion, a marriage of convenience to get their bloody task completed. Could it be that we too make such collusions to serve our own ends?

Old Story. Powerfully new application. Same bottom line. You decide.
01/21/2006
A lone defender of God's honor and truth stood up against an ancient tri-lateral alliance that threatened his life. The same players are all in place for the final showdown just before the return of Jesus. Where are you among them?
02/04/2006
Think persecution is a thing of the past: Bible times, early church, Dark Ages, etc.,not the present or the future? Think again! But then, why don't we experience it more today? The Bible's answer is clear, disturbing, hopeful.
02/25/2006
Faced any closed doors lately? Financially, socially, professionally, health wise? Consider this: those closed doors could be setting you up for God's BHAG! So, what's a BHAG? Very good question. You won't be disappointed in the very important answer.
03/04/2006
Technological advances are conquering outer space and cyber space. But there's one last, great frontier to be conquered for God. And it will be conquered . . . when God's last question becomes our first.
04/15/2006
Dickens' statement sets up this classic reflection on Easter. How is it possible to hold the opposites of death and faith, despair and hope in the same heart?
04/22/2006
What causes you to jump for joy or sends you into a pit of despair? The answer, divinely etched into human nature, also provided the antidote to depression. Imagine, if you dare, the Magic Kingdom!
04/29/2006
Level 5 (top rung) leaders, not only in top companies and families on earth but also in the divine economy in heaven, have a common, counter-intuitive characteristic. Do you possess it?
05/27/2006
What's the meaning of a color? Lots if it's God's color, the color of His throne. Knowing that color helps solve one of the greatest mysteries of the Bible.

"Now, As We Set Forth"

Appearing in the Advent Review... in September, 1874, was a brief letter from John Nevins Andrews. One of its sentences stands out. This sentence, starting "And now, as we set forth, we commit ourselves...", has become dubbed the "J.N. Andrews Benediction", and it finds frequent use at the close of major events on the Andrews University campus.

On Sept. 21 at 5:15 p.m., we will explore this sentence divided into seven parts, each with verbal commentary, congregational singing, and an organ solo. The final words, "...in this sacred work", will receive particular emphasis including an organ solo with deep campus roots, Charles Gounod's Sanctus (Holy, Holy, Holy). Kenneth Logan, organ and Jonathan Burt, word will lead this sesquicentennial remembrance.
