How can we live and learn through times of #distress like the one we're in now? In the #Bible, #God would send difficulties to bring people back to him. Hardships are meant to bring us back to the #Lord. During this #COVID-19 #pandemic, there have been memes all over the internet like “whoever God has asked to go to Nineveh—please just go.” While we don’t believe God caused COVID-19 – are there things we can learn as we are dealing with this #crisis. Can we use this time to go back to the Lord— individually and corporately. Should we be doing something that calls attention to back to Him? Find out in this week's #ANN In-Depth episode. GUESTS This week we are joined by Dr. Dee Knight and Catalina Arevalo. Dr. Knight is a doctor of clinical neuropsychology. She has been running her own psychotherapy and consultation practice for over nine years. Catalina is the host of Connected Adventist Podcast.

In this video, Pastor Ted Wilson and Nancy Wilson will be talking about a very special topic – the #family and the upcoming “Family Togetherness Week”! #God cares about individuals, and He cares about families. The hope of a coming #Savior gave hope and courage to our first #parents, and it continues to give hope and courage to us today! Even though we live in a fallen world and experience the many challenges that brings, God designed the family to be a shining light for Him. Of course, you cannot have the home God wants you to have without having Him as the main component. One of the best ways as a family to do that is by taking time, morning and evening, to have family worship. Family worship is a great time to involve #children! Make it interesting, enjoyable, and not too long. Sing together. Read together. Pray together. God can help bring peace and joy into the home, and He can help everyone to work together. For families, it can become very complicated as you are pulled in so many directions, I realize how essential it is that children feel they are part of the family unit—that they aren’t just passive members being cared for. Involve them in age-appropriate home tasks, helping to keep things clean and running smoothly. Involve them in family discussions. If kids learn early to have responsibilities, they will have a sense of ownership in the family, knowing that they are an important part of the family. While God designed the family unit, He also created the larger family—the family of God—where we are all brothers and sisters in Christ! The Seventh-day Adventist Church is a wonderful worldwide family of more than 21 million members around the world! And now even during these challenging times, the worldwide Adventist Church family is coming together in new and exciting ways, encouraging one another, and reaching out to a world desperate for hope. And now, more than ever, it’s so important to be a “home missionary.” This is a wonderful way in which we can all, as members of God’s family, come together in service for Him. In fact, this coming week is “Family Togetherness Week.” Organized by the Family Ministries department of the General Conference, this is a special opportunity to spotlight the family—both individually, and as a Church.
