Attaching Your Kids to God: Adventist Authors Discuss Ramifications of Attachment Development
“Many children get stuck at one point or another in the formation of the attachment stages and thus also in their maturity development. Thus, immature children become immature adults.” “We now know that our children do not maliciously lash out, but cannot control their strong emotions. We know that children are not capable of intentionally […] Source: https://atoday.org/attaching-your-kids-to-god-adventist-authors-discuss-ramifications-of-attachment-development/
Wednesday: Surviving Through Hope
“We were under great pressure, far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired of life itself. Indeed, we felt we had received the sentence of death. But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead” (2 Corinthians 1:8-9, , NIV).
As God’s chosen apostle, Paul had endured more than most people. Yet, Paul was not crushed. Rather, he grew in his praise for God. Read his list of hardships in 2 Corinthians 11:23-29. Now read 2 Corinthians 1:3-11.

In 2 Corinthians 1:4, Paul states that the reason for receiving God’s compassion and comfort is “so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God” (NIV). To what extent might suffering be a call to ministry? How could we become more alert to this possibility?
God wants to minister through us to hurting people. This means that He may first allow us to experience the same sort of hurts. Then we’ll offer encouragement, not from theory, but from our own experience of the compassion and comfort of God. This is a principle from Jesus’ life (see Hebrews 4:15).
Paul’s vivid descriptions of his hardships are not to make us feel sorry for him. They are for us to know that even when we’re in the depths, the Father still can intervene to bring His compassion and comfort. We may despair even of our own lives, and even be killed, but fear not, God is teaching us to rely on Him. We can trust Him, for our God “raises the dead” (2 Corinthians 1:9, NIV).
As Paul continues to set his eyes on proclaiming the gospel, he knows that God will rescue him in the future, as well. Paul’s ability to remain firm is supported by three things he mentions in 2 Corinthians 1:10-11. First, God’s proven track record: “He has delivered us from such a deadly peril, and he will deliver us” (2 Corinthians 1:10, NIV). Second, Paul’s determination to fix his concentration on God Himself: “On him we have set our hope that he will continue to deliver us” (2 Corinthians 1:10, NIV). Third, the saints’ continual intercession: “as you help us by your prayers” (2 Corinthians 1:11, NIV).
| What can you learn from Paul that can help you keep from falling into self-pity amid your own struggles? |
Amen!

Genetics, Sex, Gender, and Sexual Attraction.
25 July 2022 | Dear Editor, Thanks to Adventist Today for addressing the LGBTQ+ question. It is a discussion which is much needed. I wanted to comment upon Bryan Ness’s introduction to his ATSS class by, first, noting the use of the word “celibacy.” The word “abstinence” would have been better. Whilst the two words […] Source: https://atoday.org/genetics-sex-gender-and-sexual-attraction/
