Product Description

As this volume reminds us, the experiences of African-American Seventh-day Adventists are different from those of other American Seventh-day Adventists. They also differ from other African-American churchgoers who belong to the all-Black denominations that house more than 80 percent of African-American Christians.
The chapters that follow are, first, a testimony to the hardiness of the faith of those Black believers who are determined "that they without us should not be made perfect."
Second, they are an attempt to suggest a future agenda by review and analysis of past and present experiences.
Third, they are a witness to the goodness of God, whose promises to the obdient in such passages as Isaiah 58:13,14 and Malachi 3:6-12 have been abundantly fulfilled.
The board of Operation Reachback presents this study in the hope that it will nurture the faith and rekindle the fervor not only of Adventists Blacks, but of the entire body of Christ as we face the sober but exciting challenges of the twenty-first century.

Product Description
The Korean Seventh-day Adventist church in North America is at the crossroads of a generational shift. In this first extensive sociological study of second-generation Korean Adventists in the United States and Canada, Won Yoon examines issues and concerns related to generational transition in immigrant churches. This book is a report on the findings of a survey project termed Vision 2020, which is a major source of information about second-generation Korean Adventists in North America and their views on the future state of the Korean church. More than 1,000 second-generation Korean Adventists provided the empirical data for this study. Yoon analyzes this data and also provides sections titled In Their Own Words which represent the real voices of survey respondents stating what they like and dislike about their Korean churches. Context and Continuity traces the historical roots and reports on the current condition of the Korean Adventist church in North America. Yoon demonstrates that the church is in the process of reexamining priorities, which is necessary if it is to be relevant to the concerns of upcoming generations. Students of Asian religions in general and Asian immigrant churches in particular will appreciate the significance of Yoon's findings. Anyone interested in the relationship between ethnicity and religion will deem this work to be relevant and insightful. ... Read more

Product Description
"[I]t is a mistake for Christians to see fiction as the opposite of truth. Instead, fiction should be seen as the opposite of fact. Truth, moreover, for the Christian is not merely the recital of facts that are a part of the empirical world of reality. Truth for the Christian resides in the larger purposes of God and the universe-purposes that are realized only partially through human reason-purposes that may be realized more fully through the processes of the imagination." The primary mission of the Seventh-day Adventist teacher of literature may be that of inspiring students to explore for themselves how the reading of literature can enrich personal faith in God. With this book, Delmer Davis encourages further conversation regarding the integration of faith and the teaching of literature. By introducing the writings and ideas of notable Seventh-day Adventists and other Christians who have grappled with the interrelationship between literature and Christian belief, Dr. Davis offers literature teachers and students of literature the opportunity to examine the implications such integration has for their teaching, scholarship, and spiritual lives. As teacher of English at four Seventh-day Adventist colleges and universities for nearly four decades, Delmer Davis is well prepared to examine a Christian approach to literature and to discuss the integration of one's relationship with God to the reading of literature. Courses he has taught include Religion and Literature, Christian Faith and the Humanities, and Perspectives on Literature. Dr. Davis has chaired the English Departments at Loma Linda University and Andrews University and has also served as Dean of the School of Graduate Studies and Vice President for Academic Administration at Andrews University where he is currently Professor of English and Director of General Education. ...
