Četiri čimbenika crkvenog rasta
S. Joseph Kidder
Jeste li se ikada pitali kako bi bilo svjedočiti tome da više od tri tisuće ljudi u jednom danu preda svoje živote Gospodinu? Biti dio predivne obitelji posvećenih vjernika koja neprekidno raste - brojčano, zemljopisno i duhovno? Biti prepoznat kao osoba koja hoda s Isusom?
Kako su prvi kršćani uspjeli izvršiti tako dubok utjecaj na tadašnji svijet? I kako mi možemo, dvije tisuće godina kasnije, slijediti njihove stope? Knjiga "Četiri čimbenika crkvenog rasta" temeljito istražuje četiri ključne tajne koje su prvu Crkvu učinile uspješnom i stvorile uspješne adventističke crkve koje naglo povećavaju Božje kraljevstvo.
Bez obzira na to tko ste, nadahnjujuća iskustva i primjenjive dokazane metode koje pruža ova knjiga pripremit će vas da doživite osobno i zajedničko buđenje koje će vas dovesti do moćne službe i evanđeoskog rada.
Čitajte i pripremite se na to da će Gospodin svakodnevno pridodati trenutnom broju vjernika nove spašene!

Generational Faith: Change and Consistency across Generations
Steve Case
Will your children be just like you? Will their faith look like yours? If so, to what extent? If not, why? The Bible refers to consequences continuing to the third and fourth generations, and blessings for a thousand generations. If that’s true, why has the next generation dropped out of church and lost interest in God? Have the Bible’s promises expired? Maybe the world’s rapid changes have sped up the process, or perhaps this world has simply become too evil for faith to survive. And yet when all hope seems to be gone, young people shoot past their parents in spiritual vitality, commitment, and action. In October 2011 youth and young adult ministry professionals gathered at Andrews University for the 180° Symposium hosted by the Center for Youth Evangelism. Thirteen papers were presented during the symposium, followed by the group forming a think tank to brainstorm on the topic. In this book you will find the results of this work, including: The 13 papers presented at the start of the 180° Symposium The Relationship of Theology and Culture Addressing Second and Third Generational Challenges/Opportunities The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob Hand Me Down Religion Moving In (Immigration) Youth and young adult ministry needs to evolve in this era of compressed change.

Reach your Campus, Reach the World: Prioritizing our Mission to and through Those in Schools
Steve Case
DESCRIPTION
An estimated 70% of Seventh-day Adventist college and university students attend non-church sponsored schools. Many of these students are not finding a spiritual community they can connect with, creating a tremendous need for public campus ministry.
How can the Seventh-day Adventist Church intentionally foster biblical community on public college and university campuses? How can we reach both Adventist and non-Adventist students? How should we conduct evangelism to fit a changing world? These and many other questions were addressed at the 2009 180º Symposium held on the campus of Andrews University.
Papers presented at the 180º Symposium covered three major themes:
- Campus Ministry Models
- Campus Ministry Networking
- Campus Ministry Resources
Among the 23 papers included in Reach Your Campus Reach the World, you will find powerful ministry ideas presented by Steve Case, Kirk King, Ron Pickell, Alex Espana, Martin Weber, and many others. Topics covered include rethinking evangelism, campus-based youth ministry, social networking and the faith community, and supporting our youth.
Young people are searching for meaning. With the confusing messages bombarding them daily, they need to hear the truth. Is your congregation ready to reach out to public campuses?

God Invented Sex
Charles E. Wittschiebe
To some it may seem unnecessary and possibly out of character for a publisher of religions, inspirational, educational, health, and children's literature to sponsor a book such as this necessity and appropriate -ness can hardly be questioned, however, when one considers the deplorable attitudes regarding marriage, the home, and sex which are being forced upon young and old through an increasing quantity of vulgar literature and films. These range all the way from books which describe the art of seduction to films which vividly portray sadistic and obscene sex practices. Many discerning professional marriage counselors have recently voiced fears that the family in North America faces serious trouble. Marital problems are far to common even in Seventh-day Adventist homes. More often than not, improper attitudes toward and dissatisfying experiences with sex play a large role in thratening these marriages.

By Faith Alone
Norval F. Pease
Adventist history shows a growing emphasis upon the doctrine of justification by faith, attributed largely to the influence of the writings of Ellen G. White.
This book has four purposes: first, to review some aspects of the doctrine of justification by faith as taught in the Bible. Second, to give a survey of the history of the doctrine of justification by faith from Paul to Wesley; third, to trace the attitude toward the doctrine of justification by faith in the Seventh-day Adventist Church; and fourth, to give the reader a cross section of Adventist literature on justification by faith.
By Faith Alone does not merely provide historical or doctrinal information but will serve to glorify God, by whose grace we are saved.
