Treatment for COVID-19 in the cities and rural areas is not the same. Join us as we investigate the past utilization of Ultraviolet Radiation (sunlight) and Open Space (fresh air) as a treatment for physical and mental illness in the 1918 Pandemic Flu. We will ask the question: does this have any role for our front-line war with COVID-19? How does this relate to diversity in Urban and Rural delivery? The 1918 H1N1 Influenza Pandemic was a serious threat to the United States and much of the world, resulting in the death of over 50 million people. SARS-CoV2 or COVID-19 has so far resulted in over 133,000 deaths globally and had a profound effect on each of our overall lives physically, financially, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. Last Sunday, in part 1 of our Medical Symposium entitled, “Novel Lessons Learned from the 1918 Flu: Could they Apply to the COVID-19 Pandemic” we discovered there were some unusual treatments employed during the Spanish Flu that had good results, namely Hydrothermal Therapy (HT). We were also intrigued to find that HT has some scientifically positive implications for COVID-19. This week, we continue part 2 of our Medical Symposium, as we seek to review the past as an informational opportunity for potential conjunctive treatments for COVID-19. Category 1 CME and CEU Credit through the University of Arizona is offered to all participants. For more information visit AWR.org/Health for more information.

What are the things we do as a church that could be put under the label “tradition”? Why is it always important to distinguish them from biblical teaching? There is no Christian church that does not use Scripture to support its beliefs. Yet, the role and authority of Scripture in theology is not the same in all churches. We all are part of various traditions and cultures that impact us. We all have experiences that shape our thinking and influence our understanding. We all have a mind to think and to evaluate things. We all read the Bible and use it for our understanding of God and His will. Bible Study Lesson 4 – https://bit.ly/2z1iT0F Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BGQ13BJLjBo

Special Message from Pr Ted Wilson, president of the Seventh-day Adventist World Church related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

May God bless you with peace, hope, and courage!" Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eluLg3CFCcg

Many countries are finding ways to thank their health workers as they continue to save lives during this coronavirus pandemic. We know that giving thanks is a real encouragement. We too want to give our support.
#dearcoronavirus #5 visits with medical staff from 15 countries to share their commitment and passion during this difficult time. With a mixture of front-line staff dealing directly with the virus, to those who still take a daily risk working in midwifery, psycho-sociological support for girls with eating disorders, or in general surgery, these brave men and women don’t see themselves as heroes but do recognize the extra challenges to their lives, their careers and their families as they continue to serve their communities. This is a video with real doctors and nurses, working in real situations, expressing their care, and giving us, world-wide, an opportunity to say ‘thank you’. UPLOAD THIS TO YOUR OWN CHANNEL

Why must the Scripture be foundational to our faith? Without it, where would we be? The way we see and understand the origin and nature of Scripture greatly impacts the role that the Bible plays in our lives and in the church at large. When we want to understand Scripture correctly, we first of all need to allow the Bible to determine the basic parameters of how it should be treated. Our interpretation of Scripture needs to take seriously the divine-human dimension of God’s Word. This week we will look at some foundational aspects of the origin and nature of the Bible that should impact our interpretation and understanding of it.
