EDITORIAL: The Growing Demand for Honesty in Adventism
I was talking with a communication director from a European union conference. He told me he and his leadership team read Adventist Today to understand what is actually going on across the Adventist world. Not for spin. For clarity. That says something. Even within the system, there is recognition that official channels do not always capture […] Source: https://atoday.org/editorial-the-growing-demand-for-honesty-in-adventism/
Sunday: Faithful Daniel
Daily Lesson for Sunday 3rd of May 2026
Daniel is one of the great heroes of the Bible. We know the first story too (see Daniel 1:1-21): “Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s delicacies” (Daniel 1:8, NKJV). Also, to Daniel and his three friends, “God gave them knowledge and skill in all literature and wisdom; and Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams” (Daniel 1:17, NKJV). The Bible describes Daniel as wise (Daniel 1:20; Daniel 2:14,21,23,48) because the Spirit of God was in him (Daniel 4:9,18; Daniel 5:14; Daniel 6:3), and he was greatly beloved by Heaven (Daniel 9:23, Daniel 10:11). These are some descriptors of a man who had a strong, abiding connection with God.
In Daniel 2:1-49, when King Nebuchadnezzar issued a death decree to all wise men in Babylon, Daniel sought God’s mercy concerning the secret of the king’s dream (Daniel 2:18). When God revealed the king’s dream to Daniel, he immediately prayed.
Read Daniel 2:20-23. Why did Daniel pray, and what can we learn from this prayer?

As the years passed by and kings rose and fell, Daniel remained an adviser to the kings and was described as distinguished “because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king gave thought to setting him over the whole realm” (Daniel 6:3, NKJV). “He was faithful; nor was there any error or fault found in him” (Daniel 6:4, NKJV). Despite fierce jealousy and evil plotting (Daniel 6:5-9) from his peers, Daniel remained ever constant and fearless in his prayer life.
Read Daniel 6:10-11. What do these verses tell us about Daniel?
When faced with difficulty, Daniel prayed. Although the threat was against his life, he was consistent and persistent in prayer (three times every day, as was his custom), and predictable (at his open window three times a day as he prayed toward Jerusalem). His prayer was a physical act (he knelt) and focused on thanksgiving and supplication.

Is More Always More: Why Church Statistics Don’t Always Reflect Success
by Reinder Bruinsma | 1 May 2026 | It was the time of the judges, around 1200 BCE. Israel did not yet have a king, so when they were troubled by their neighbors, a temporary ruler was called to restore peace and order. God called Gideon, who belonged to the tribe of Manasseh, to deal […] Source: https://atoday.org/is-more-always-more-why-statistics-dont-always-reflect-the-value-of-the-church/
