Nutrition plays a very important role in our well-being. But can the food we eat help optimize our health to combat COVID-19? Can a plant-based diet help as we battle this virus and truly support optimal well-being? In this week’s episode, we’ll take a look at the booming popularity of the whole-food/plant-based diet, and how it may negate the impact of comorbidities with COVID-19. It’s not just science that supports a healthful diet! The Bible also highlights eight principles that can be easily remembered using the acronym WANT REST (Water, Air, Nutrition, Temperance, Rest, Exercise, Sunlight and Trust in God ). This program will focus on what science and the Bible say about nutrition. Join us for LEVEL UP Episode 7 with host Dr. Lela Lewis and guests Pastor Mark Finley, Dr. Zeno Charles-Marcel and Dr. David DeRose as they talk about optimizing our health by knowing the facts about nutrition and rediscovering the wisdom God has shared through the scriptures.

Waiting isn’t always easy. But that was what Jesus instructed His disciples to do in Matthew 24 — to wait and watch for the signs that would mark the second coming of Jesus. And for many years after His death, that is exactly what God’s people did. But as the wait dragged on for almost 2000 years, have God’s people tired of waiting? Or have we become distracted? Today, God’s people still await the second coming of Jesus. We watch for the signs of this great event. But due to complacency and the distractions of the world, one only wonders if we are still ready for the time that Jesus Himself had warned us about. Join us for Episode 5 of Unlocking Bible Prophecies: Digging Deeper, where Pastor Chris Holland shares insight not only on how to be watchful, but how to be ready as well. MEET THE HOST:

"In this video, we will look at one of the most #effective ways of being a #messenger for #Christ. In fact, this method goes all the way back to the prophet #Daniel and his three friends, when they were taken captive to #Babylon. As we read in Daniel, chapter 1, these young men were no ordinary captives—they were Hebrew nobility, good-looking, gifted in wisdom, possessing knowledge, and quick to understand. Instead of eating from the royal table, they requested a very simple, plant-based diet, and pure water to drink. Is temperance important? Does it really matter what we put into our bodies, and how we live? It certainly mattered for Daniel and his friends, and I believe it does for us today. For you see, following a healthy lifestyle not only strengthens our minds and bodies, but serves as a powerful witness to others. God wants everyone to be healthy—physically and emotionally, as well as spiritually! And how wonderful that in the Bible and the Spirit of Prophecy, God has given clear instructions on how to live healthfully—showing us what is best to eat, to drink, how to care for our bodies, and much more. Friends, Jesus tells us in John 10:10 that He came that we might have life, and that we might have it more abundantly. He invites us to enjoy living that more abundant life through His grace and power today! " Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJnuWvMpybw

The Seventh-day Adventist church played an important role in Australian history and culture. The new online Encyclopedia of the Seventh-day Adventists bares record of the Australian mission. In this episode, let us join Dr. David Trim and Dr. Dragoslava Santrac, editors of ESDA. They will interview Dr. Barry Oliver, who is a scholar, pastor, administrator, and editor in the South Pacific Division. Australian mission legacy Dr. Oliver shares the three “I”s: Information, Identity, and Inspiration that we can get from the online encyclopedia. We can appreciate the Adventist history more as we place ourselves in the shoes of those who’ve gone before us. And say, “I want to continue the legacy”? Interesting missionary stories Dr. Oliver shares how God has worked through his experiences while working with Australian church members. Stories about his wife’s grandparents and their major contributions to Adventist history. Who were the first Australian missionaries in China and how long did they cross the great Yangtze River? And also how a simple song stopped the attack of cannibals. Online Encyclopedia: The legacy lives on According to Dr. Oliver, this is the largest project that the denomination has ever embarked on as a global church. It is a readable and searchable online encyclopedia for everyone. Yes, it is for everyone — professionals, students, and laypeople alike. It answers interesting questions and features a variety of topics. It tells about the Australian church and Adventist history in the South Pacific Division. Let’s have a quick look: We know that Avondale University College is in Australia and is the world’s second-largest Christian school system.
