Fathers [Pastor Wilson Looks at the Influential Role Entrusted to Fathers]
In this video, Pastor Ted Wilson looks at the influential role that has been entrusted to fathers. Studies have shown that fathers have a profound influence upon their children, who look to them to provide a feeling of security, both physical and emotional. Furthermore, when fathers are affectionate and supportive, it enhances a child’s mental and social development and helps them feel confident. Most importantly, fathers have a profound influence on the spiritual life of their children. An interesting survey in Switzerland conducted some years ago by the Swiss Federal Statistical Office in Neuchatel, posed some questions to determine whether a person's religious practices influenced the spiritual practices of the next generation. The study concluded: "It is the religious practice of the father of the family that, above all, determines the future attendance at or absence from church of the children." We also have an abundance of inspired insight regarding the spiritual role of fathers. In Adventist Home we read, "The father . . . will bind his children to the throne of God by living faith. Distrusting his own strength, he hangs his helpless soul on Jesus and takes hold of the strength of the Most High.” The author continues: "Brethren, pray at home, in your family, night and morning; pray earnestly in your closet; and while engaged in your daily labor, lift up the soul to God in prayer. It was thus that Enoch walked with God" (p. 212). And, of course, the Bible is full of instruction regarding family relationships. In Ephesians 6:4 we read, "Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord." And in Proverbs 1:8 this important instruction is given: "Hear, my son, your father's instruction, and forsake not your mother's teaching." Sometimes, however, tensions arise, and it is at these times that the promise of Malachi 4:6 is especially comforting. Speaking of God's power to heal relationships, it says "He will turn the hearts of the fathers to their children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers." And while no human father is perfect, how wonderful it is to know that we have a perfect Heavenly Father who cares about us deeply. In Psalm 103, verses 8, 13, and 14 we read: "The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in mercy . . . As a father pities his children, so the Lord pities those who fear Him. For He knows our frame; He remembers that we are dust." And we have this assurance from Jesus Himself when He says in John 16:27 "for the Father Himself loves you. . . " Fathers–let Jesus, His Word, and constant prayer be your guide. You can find tremendous strength, courage, and wisdom just this way. Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NiG-nPgxDoU
La riscoperta del Noi
Cronache di una pandemia. Presentazione del libro a cura del prof. Hanz Gutierrez. 1° parte La ricerca esistenziale di Hanz Gutierrez si snoda da Gabriel García Márquez a Philip Roth, da Sofocle ad Albert Camus passando per Tucidide e Boccaccio, raggiungendo il suo apice in una lettura pastorale del Salmo 61 di Davide. L’autore, ispirandosi ai grandi classici del passato, che hanno una valenza universale e senza tempo, getta il suo sguardo, fresco e acuto, sulla crisi pandemica attuale – emergenza sanitaria che porta con sé altre crisi – aprendo sentieri di riflessione insospettabili e innovativi. Perché se è vero che la letteratura non fornisce risposte immediate rispetto ai mali di oggi, può comunque alimentare un confronto che ci aiuterà a tracciare il nostro percorso futuro, personale e collettivo. «Questo «Noi» ritrovato inaspettatamente e quasi malvolentieri, non è solo il «Noi sincronico» e contemporaneo di una solidarietà fra popoli che scoprono di abitare una stessa terra e di essere minacciati da un unico nemico: il virus; questo «Noi» è anche il «Noi diacronico» dei popoli che hanno vissuto prima di noi, in epoche passate, e che hanno sperimentato come noi che cosa significa essere minacciati da un’epidemia o pandemia. Da qui il collegamento con quei testi del passato che raccontano, in modi e in circostanze diversi, la sensazione di vulnerabilità e la paura di essere stati travolti da una minaccia in grado di abbattere ogni certezza e punto di riferimento».

Inside Story: The United States of America ~ Weekly Trip to Mission Field
Weekly Trip to Mission Field
By Andrew McChesney, Adventist Mission
Some children in the U.S. state of Texas don’t just listen to the mission story. They also fly to faraway countries to experience the story firsthand.

On Sabbaths, the children check in at Missionary Airlines when they arrive for Sabbath School at the Grandview Seventh-day Adventist Church. Each child presents a passport marked “Grandview Sabbath School Passport” at the airline’s check-in desk to receive a visa for the destination country. On one Sabbath, a visitor from Adventist Mission had prepared a mission story from China, so the airline representative Primary teacher, Luly Wicklund, stuck a home-printed sticker of the red Chinese flag into each passport. Each child also can receive up to three stars in the passport: for showing up on time, for bringing a Bible, and for inviting a friend.
The first 10 children who arrive on time are issued first-class boarding passes, which allows them to choose their seats in an airplane in the next room. Late arrivals receive economy boarding passes with assigned seating. The children also have frequent-flyer cards with memory verses on the back. The plane, constructed by church members, consists of a metal and wooden frame covered with white canvas. Oval windows line the sides of the fuselage.
Once the children are seated, Luly plays a recorded message. “Thank you for choosing Missionary Airlines, where a new adventure awaits you every Sabbath!” says the male voice of the plane’s captain. “Please remain in your seats as one of your attendants has prayer before our flight departs.”
After the announcement one Sabbath, Luly asked the 11 children onboard for their prayer requests. A boy pointed to a gaping hole at the back of the plane and exclaimed, “Let’s pray that we’re not sucked out of this plane during the flight.” After the other children laughed, the boy added seriously, “Please pray for my dog. She isn’t feeling well.” Then the plane took off for China.
Upon landing, the children exited the plane and sat in nearby chairs to listen to the mission story from China. Afterward, they flew back to Texas. During the return flight, the teacher asked quiz questions about the mission story.
Luly, who developed Missionary Airlines at the suggestion of her 11-year-old son more than a decade ago, said she has found it useful to develop a Sabbath School theme each quarter and to make mission stories part of that theme. Previous themes have included a submarine, a cave, and a rocket that took children around the world. Luly said the trips personalize the mission stories.
“Children see that these are normal people who go to these places,” she said. Normal people used by God.
