How does giving up control to the #government impact #Religious #Liberty? We easily went into our homes, and only now are some complaining. Was this the best thing to do in this instance— absolutely yes. Did it set a precedent for the future— yes it probably did. What does that look like? We sat down with Bettina Krause and Ty Gibson for this important episode of ANN In-Depth. Bettina is the Associate Director for Public Affairs and Religious Liberty at the General Conference. Ty is the Co-Director of Light Bearers and pastor of Storyline Adventist Church. Learn more about our guests. Ty Gibson and Light Bearers:

Many say wisdom comes with advancing years, but does advanced age necessitate an increase in dying from SARS-CoV-2? This week in LEVEL UP, we will reexamine oxidative stress, age, and the role it plays in the severity of COVID-19. Again, we will investigate the past to find a possible solution to the current pandemic. We will investigative an ancient treatment called balneotherapy—water treatment—and examine its potential benefit in COVID-19. But water treatment is more than just external therapy; it is internal hydration as well. Dehydration is known to increase Reactive Oxidative Stress. Could it be that dehydration is a contributing factor in the recent spikes in COVID-19 cases? And how does this apply to those more advanced in years? Learn more about Level Up! and our recent medical symposiums at awr.org/health. MEET THE HOST

Sharing the gospel is difficult for some people and they feel burdened. But God is reminding us that it is not our work to do, it is God’s. He wants us to share what we already have in us. It is Jesus who we got! We can share the word of God by making friends and mingling with other people.
