by Elle Berry | 17 July 2020 | As darkness fell over the upper-left United States on the evening of July 4th, I was summoned to the front porch by the sounds of holiday percussion. I stood staring into the night, the full moon silhouetting poplars, evergreens, and the mountain peaks of neighborhood rooftops. Here […] Source: https://atoday.org/america-in-grief/

July Presidential Message | AWR360°
If you’re watching the news, you know of the worldwide coronavirus devastation, the civil unrest and racial intolerance, and the upheaval in nature, to name a few. But I call all of that the “devil’s news” because that’s what the devil is doing. And as often happens, sometimes we know more about what he’s up to than about what God is doing! That’s why our mission at AWR is not only to take the gospel to every nation, kindred, tongue and people, but to share the amazing news of what God is doing—because the more we share, the more we receive—and that’s the best news of all!

Complex and Beautiful Historical Growth of Adventist Australian Church
The Seventh-day Adventist church played an important role in Australian history and culture. The new online Encyclopedia of the Seventh-day Adventists bares record of the Australian mission. In this episode, let us join Dr. David Trim and Dr. Dragoslava Santrac, editors of ESDA. They will interview Dr. Barry Oliver, who is a scholar, pastor, administrator, and editor in the South Pacific Division. Australian mission legacy Dr. Oliver shares the three “I”s: Information, Identity, and Inspiration that we can get from the online encyclopedia. We can appreciate the Adventist history more as we place ourselves in the shoes of those who’ve gone before us. And say, “I want to continue the legacy”? Interesting missionary stories Dr. Oliver shares how God has worked through his experiences while working with Australian church members. Stories about his wife’s grandparents and their major contributions to Adventist history. Who were the first Australian missionaries in China and how long did they cross the great Yangtze River? And also how a simple song stopped the attack of cannibals. Online Encyclopedia: The legacy lives on According to Dr. Oliver, this is the largest project that the denomination has ever embarked on as a global church. It is a readable and searchable online encyclopedia for everyone. Yes, it is for everyone — professionals, students, and laypeople alike. It answers interesting questions and features a variety of topics. It tells about the Australian church and Adventist history in the South Pacific Division. Let’s have a quick look: We know that Avondale University College is in Australia and is the world’s second-largest Christian school system. But, do we know anything about the names behind its school buildings, such as Haskell Hall, Andre Hall, Ella Boyd Hall, and Chan Sun Auditorium?

Speaking of embarking, we also invite you to join us on our next video podcast episode. We will track the Adventist history down the lanes of India.
