Inside Adventist Publishing: Global Impact and the ‘The Great Controversy’ Project.
Join us as Almir Marroni, the director of Publishing for the Seventh-day Adventist World Church, unpacks the enduring relevance of books in today's digital age. Discover why the Adventist Church, with its 57 active publishing houses worldwide – Brazil boasting the largest – continues to champion the power of the printed word to shape minds and change lives. Dive into the unique business models that keep these publishing houses thriving and learn how they've positively impacted the lives of many within and without the Seventh-day Adventist community. Central to our conversation is "The Great Controversy," a book that not only traces the biblical narrative from Satan's rebellion to the eventual restoration of Earth, but also holds a transformative power for many readers. While some find personal turning points within its pages, others gain a profound understanding of the cosmic battle between good and evil and its implications on human suffering. Stay tuned for our next episode, delving into the search for truth. Don't miss our discussions on the pivotal role of books within the Seventh-day Adventist Church and their contribution to personal growth and upward mobility. The Seventh-day Adventist Church has been an established denomination since 1863. It is a global Christian family with over 21 million members who hold the Bible as the ultimate authority. We are believers who promise to help people understand the Bible to find freedom, healing, and hope in Jesus.

Making Sabbath School a Bible Study
I actually thought I was the only one concerned about how little Bible study is actually done in Sabbath School. It seems we study the quarterly more than the Bible. Then I found this quote from 1991, and found out I am not alone, and have not been for years.
“Too often I find that what passes for Bible study in many Sabbath School classes is little more than a rehash of familiar sayings, personal opinion, and Ellen White quotations. It isn’t Bible study, but simply comments about the Bible…..Our “lesson study” has the guise of Bible study but isn’t. It is more a study of the Sabbath School lesson quarterly than the Bible.” –Myron Widmer, Adventist Review, September 12, 1991.
During the quarantine I would ask people what they have been finding in their personal Bible study time, only to get answers about what they heard a television preacher say. I never got any direct answers to my question about personal Bible study time. This greatly concerned me. In Acts 17:11 they were not only listening to Paul preach, but they were searching (not just casually reading) the Scriptures (Not a quarterly or periodical) daily, not just every now and then.
Group Bible Study
This is why I enjoy Michael Fracker’s teaching plans. These plans make Sabbath school a Bible study that may casually reference the quarterly, instead of a study of the quarterly that may casually reference the Bible. Quarterlies are great as they direct us to the Bible, but we need to follow those directions and go to the Bible. By the way, after using Michael Fracker’s lesson plans for twenty years, I have also helped write his lesson plans on occasion and even edit them. In the process I have also developed a somewhat similar set of lesson plans following Michael Fracker’s vision of making Sabbath school time Bible study time. While some use my plans and many more use Michael Fracker’s teaching plans, I talk to several Sabbath School teachers who feel more comfortable making their own teaching plans. That is really best. The suggested plans are just to get you started. What is most important is making sure Sabbath School time is Bible study time.
Amen!
