In Acts 2:36-38, Peter explains to the gathered crowd that the very Jesus they just crucified is really the Son of God sent to save the world. Horrified, the people reply, “What shall we do?” And Peter says those famous words, “Repent and be baptized for the forgiveness of sins.” That’s our same message and commission today: preach and baptize. It’s what AWR is all about—and it’s what God’s last-day people are called to do! In this short video, I share one man’s incredible journey, and how God is calling His Church—you and me—to respond to that same calling today and say, “I will go!” —Duane McKey, President MB01JTRLQ2SGRM7 Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1DyFJ_9wvNE

Why We Need Alternative Prophetic Fulfillments
By Danny Handoko | 22 April 2021 | Many Seventh-day Adventists are excited to study the Bible’s prophetic books. In Indonesia, where I grew up, the primary evangelistic programs were Revelation Seminars. Ellen White’s The Great Controversy played an important role in my spiritual formation, especially the chapters on end-time prophecy: that book may have […] Source: https://atoday.org/why-we-need-alternative-prophetic-fulfillments/

Would You Be Interested in Buying Canned Air?
Have you noticed how we tend to value what we truly need only when it is removed from us? What if you didn’t have fresh air? What if our fresh Canadian air was so polluted that the only fresh air you could get was in a can?

Possibilities Ministries [How Can We Find Joy in Suffering? Pastor Wilson]
In this video, Pastor Ted Wilson talks about a special webinar from Adventist Possibilities Ministries titled, "Finding Joy in Suffering: Grieving for a Loved One." As followers of Christ, we have been given the enormous privilege of reaching everyone—"every nation, tribe, tongue, and people," according to Revelation 14:6. And while this charge may seem quite straightforward, it is sometimes easy to overlook those who may have challenges that are different from what we personally might experience–those who have challenges hearing or seeing, those who are emotionally or mentally challenged, the orphans and other vulnerable children, the widowed, and those who care for people who are facing these various challenges. How can we reach these dear ones, include them into our community of believers, and encourage them? Adventist Possibilities Ministries, sometimes referred to as "Special Needs Ministries," is an inclusive ministry of the church, with the motto of "All are gifted, needed, and treasured!" To draw attention to this very important ministry, each year a special Sabbath is designated as "Possibility Ministries Awareness Day." And this year, Sabbath, April 24, has been set aside for this purpose. During this day, Adventist Possibilities Ministries will be providing a very timely and important webinar titled, "Finding Joy in Suffering: Grieving for a Loved One." This past year has been exceptionally painful as so many lives have been lost due to the coronavirus. In addition, individuals and families around the world have suffered many other types of losses–the loss of a job, loss of security, and more. While a webinar will not erase the hurt, we can learn to press together and find that which will bring us lasting hope and perhaps a unique kind of “joy.” You can join this free webinar as those with special expertise and those who have suffered their own loss share how they have learned to face the future without a loved one. For more information regarding broadcast times, and to join the webinar, visit: possibilityministries.org/finding-joy-in-suffering. This is one of many special services that Adventist Possibilities Ministries provides, helping everyone to know that they are not alone. Please know that you are not alone!

“The Shepherd King” Revival Series Part 2 – Spirit Filled Music
Music does have a power and it can draw, it can repel, it can inspire in good ways and bad. "The Shepherd King" is a 12-part revival series with Pastor Doug Batchelor. Few Old Testament characters have had as much impact on the modern Christian faith as David, the beloved shepherd-king of Israel. And today, his story—the challenges, the adventures, and the highs and lows—still has amazing power to inform and transform our walk with God. Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LToUWO58or0
