by Samuel Jeudin & Christopher C. Thompson | 9 June 2022 | One of the greatest failures of the Christian church is that we spend so much time preaching that we haven’t cultivated the ability to listen. Given the depth and pervasive tragedies and injustices in our world, this failure borders on egregious, and in […] Source: https://atoday.org/pressing-toward-the-mark/

Hannah’s passionate plea
A stick figure with a white dress and red cross hat. Hannah Kent still remembers this drawing from her Year 1 diary. With a grandmother and mother who trained as nurses, perhaps it was inevitable Hannah would, too. “I’ve always wanted to help people and felt that was my career calling as well.” Source: https://wp.avondale.edu.au/news/2022/06/10/hannahs-passionate-plea/

¿Por qué es triste este congreso de la Asociación General?
por Loren Seibold | 9 de junio de 2022 | Aunque nunca pensé que la Asociación General (AG) fuera un oráculo (un Urim y Tumim moderno en el que cada voto proyecta los pensamientos de Dios), en mis años de juventud esperaba que en los congresos de la AG pudieran ocurrir cosas importantes, cosas que […] Source: https://atoday.org/por-que-es-triste-este-congreso-de-la-asociacion-general/

Inside Story: An Eternal Gift
An Eternal Gift
Tragedy struck young Vishalini’s life when her parents divorced over a misunderstanding in the extended family. Vishalini sadly said good-bye to Mother after Father gained custody of her. Before long, Father remarried, and Vishalini had a stepmother. Vishalini felt so alone.

Her new stepmother did not like Mother at all.
Vishalini deeply loved Mother, and she looked forward to her occasional visits. The girl would smile and give Mother a big hug. Mother also smiled and gave Vishalini a big hug. Mother often had something else for the girl as well. She brought gifts. “Here is something for you,” Mother would say, pressing tasty treats into her little hand.
Vishalini smiled happily. She liked gifts and she liked tasty treats. But before she could eat them, her stepmother often snatched them away. “You are not allowed to accept any of her gifts,” her stepmother said, sharply.
Vishalini felt so alone. She grew up into a teenager, and Father sent her away to study at a boarding school in another part of Tamil Nadu state. It was scary to leave home for the first time, but Vishalini was glad to be away from family tensions and to be among friendly children and teachers. As the weeks passed, she became especially interested in hearing about Someone whom the children called “the real God.” She wanted to know more, and she began to learn about Jesus.
Today, Vishalini calls Jesus her Friend and says she will never feel alone again. Why? Because Jesus has promised, “And lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age” (Matthew 28:20; NKJV). Vishalini has one Gift that no one can ever take away.
Thank you for your Thirteenth Sabbath Offering that helped construct a new girls’ dormitory at Vishalini’s school, James Memorial Higher Secondary School, in Tamil Nadu state in southeastern India. The new dormitory allowed Vishalini and the other girls to move out of a dilapidated building that no longer was a healthy place to live.
