It should break every Christian's heart that the supposed "faith of Jesus" was used to justify colonization and other horrible things across history...

In secular Europe, big events aren’t working as well anymore, so the church needs to shift toward small, relational groups where faith grows naturally.

ADIMIS (Friedensau) is pushing this change by training leaders through an interactive, team-based program where people actually practice small group life, not just study it. The approach is gaining traction (1,000+ participants across 15 countries), aiming less at one fixed model and more at developing real leadership, community skills, and local mission adaptability.

Köhler's message was simple: the Adventist Church needs to think bigger and act more boldly in mission.

He challenged members to stop being satisfied with maintaining existing churches and instead focus on reaching new people, cultures, cities, and countries. Drawing from the Three Angels' Messages in Revelation 14, he emphasized that Adventists have a unique end-time message to share and should proclaim it confidently, not timidly.

His call was to:

1. Trust God for bigger results.
2. Stop fearing difficult or secular mission fields.
3. Invest resources aggressively in evangelism.
4. Plant more churches and send more missionaries.
5. Use every available method—including digital media—to reach people.

In short, his appeal was: Don't play it safe. The mission is urgent. Dream bigger, invest more, and move forward by faith.

God bless you! 😁👍🏻

May 20, 1506: Christopher Columbus, who saw himself as a missionary, not just an explorer, dies impoverished in Spain at age 55.

May 20, 325: Emperor Constantine convenes the first Ecumenical Council in Nicaea (now Iznik), Bithynia, to discuss Arianism, a heresy arguing that Christ was subordinate to God the Father. "I entreat you," Constantine said at the opening of the Council of Nicea, "to remove the causes of dissension among you and to establish peace." The council attempted to resolve the bitter conflict by anathematizing Arius (Arianism's founder) and ordering the burning of all his books, but the conflict continued to rage for decades.

First Council of Nicaea - Wikipedia The First Council of Nicaea[5] was a council of Christian bishops convened in the Bithynian city of Nicaea (now İznik, Turkey) by the Roman Emperor Constantine I, also known as the First Ecumenical Council. It met from May until the end of July 325.[6]

WITH THIS SONG I WANT TO ENCOURAGE YOU AND BUILD YOU UP TO FOLLOW JESUS! God bless you! 😁👍🏻

I’ve had it with the way of this world
I’ve spent my last day chasing those lies
And now I want the world to hear me say
Jesus is the way (Jesus is the way)

I’ve had it with the schemes of the devil
He ain’t got no grip on me
Let the gates of hell tremble when I say
Jesus is the way (Jesus is the way)

You are the way
You’re the only way
For the saint, for the sinner
For the world today

You are the way
And I will follow You
Cause Jesus only You
Are the life the truth
The way

So, where You lead that’s where I’m going
Lord, I’ve got my eyes locked on You
Remind my heart if I start to stray
Jesus is the way
Jesus is the way

You are the way
You’re the only way
For the saint, for the sinner
For the world today

You are the way
And I will follow You
‘Cause Jesus only You
Are the life the truth
The way

You are the way out of the darkness
You are the way out of the storm
You are the way out of the broken
Just like You’ve been before

You are the way through the valley
You are the way on high
You make the way before me
So, I will testify

You are the way
You’re the only way
For the saint, for the sinner
For the world today

You are the way
And I will follow You
Cause Jesus only You
Are the life the truth

The way
You are the way
You’re the life the truth
The way

May 19, 1805: Joshua V. Himes, best known for promoting William Miller's Second Advent movement, is born. Miller predicted the Second Coming between 1843 and 1844. When this did not happen, many followers deserted; others reorganized themselves as Seventh-Day Adventists.

Himes, Joshua Vaughan (1805–1895) Joshua V. Himes, minister and radical reformer, became “the principal promoter, manager, and financier”1 of the Second Advent or Millerite movement of the 1840s and figured prominently in two denominations that emerged out of that movement.

Dan Serns, a seasoned Seventh-day Adventist pastor and church planting leader, presents a vision of a healthy, mission-driven church rooted in Acts 2. He emphasizes that renewal begins with spiritual transformation, not programs, and that every believer is called to lead others to Jesus. A healthy church combines worship with small, relational groups focused on “upreach,” “inreach,” and “outreach,” where lives are transformed and disciples are made. By empowering members, sharing leadership, and sending people into mission, the church becomes a growing, outward-focused movement centered on Christ, where authentic community fosters healing and spiritual growth.

"Helping Local Churches Understand the Need for Revitalization" by Dan Serns In this presentation, Dan Serns calls churches back to the original vision of the New Testament church as described in Acts 2. He highlights that revitalizat...

CALLED TO LOVE

“Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil.” [1 Corinthians 13:4, 5.] Troubles exist between brethren in the church because they fail to understand what constitutes true Christian charity, brotherly affections, and Christlike love. Self-love, self-esteem lead professed Christians to measure themselves by themselves. They take for granted that all their surmisings and suspicions of others are correct. But it is because of suspicions and judging of one another that there is discord, strife, and an unhealthy condition of the church. 7LtMs, Ms 24, 1892, par. 1

If brethren would meet together once or twice a week, and with humble minds, feeling their weakness and realizing their defects, then would ask the Lord to enlighten their understanding and fill their hearts with His love, examining not one another, but the Scriptures, Satan would be defeated. Many imaginary difficulties, mere mole hills that have been magnified into mountains and have made barriers between brethren, would vanish, and love, compassion, and respect would take the place of jangling and accusation. When you begin to judge your brethren, you are doing a work God has not given you to do. You are not working with Christ. God did not place you upon the judgment seat to measure and pronounce sentence upon your brethren. 7LtMs, Ms 24, 1892, par. 2

God bless you! 😁👍🏻
