In this episode of From the Heart, Pastor Erton Köhler, president of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, shares a truth we’ve all felt: the world around us is shaking, but God still holds it in His hands. Wars persist, humanitarian crises deepen, and peace seems fragile. Yet Jesus declared His sovereignty: "You will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled" (Matthew 24:6). He did not promise a world without storms; He promised His presence through every one of them. Pastor Köhler reminds us that hope is not denial; hope is courage with eyes wide open. From the ruins of earthquakes in Türkiye and Syria to wildfires in Southern Europe, Adventist believers have responded with compassion, rebuilding trust amid destruction. Faith in action proves that when the world trembles, love must move faster than fear. You were not placed in this generation by accident. Your redemption draws near. Watch now and let God renew your courage for what comes next. About the series From the Heart is a weekly devotional series in which Pastor Köhler reflects on what it means to be grounded in the Bible and focused on the mission, collectively and individually. Each episode is grounded in the four pillars of the Seventh-day Adventist Church strategic plan: Communion with God, Identity in Christ, Unity through the Holy Spirit, and Mission for All. The series connects biblical faith to everyday life, sharing short reflections and glimpses of how God is at work through the Adventist Church around the world.
