ADVENTIST BLOG Roundup
The latest coming out of the Adventist blogosphere.
Asphalt Adventist: From the What-Were-You-Thinking-Dept., an objectionable letter written by an anonymous SDA fundamentalist was published in the Dec. newsletter (page 23) of the Zola Levitt Ministries - put out by Jewish-Christians. The SDA in question states that Jews are rejected by God and that "Adventists are now God's chosen people." Blogger Jarrod J. Williamson, Ph.D., reports on the story and even called and e-mailed the writer, a Jewish scholar, to apologize on behalf of SDA's. Click on the blog link for Williamson's report/apology.

Bere Adventist Hospital: Dr. James Appel, an Adventist missionary practicing medicine in a remote area of Tchad, blogs about his experiences treating AIDS and malaria in the most harsh and adverse conditions. This month he brings his usual, captivating wit to describe what happens when patients ignore a hernia their entire lives. Fair warning: it's graphic, but brutally honest and entertaining.
Reaching Alaska for Jesus: Not to be cut-off from the rest of the world, Warren and Verity Downs report on lay-pastoring a small church in the native Inpiaq Eskimo village of Selawik, Alaska.
Christian Adventist's: Prophecy aficionado Eric. W. King defends "God's true church" against those pesky offshooters from Creation Seventh Day Adventists, who recently called the Adventist church "babylon."
Right End of the Telescope: Making the blogosphere roundup twice in a row, Ken McFarland gives a great report on the movie "Golden Compass" and Philip Pullman's anti-God volumes entitled His Dark Materials.
Eat This: The "International Chef of Mystery" continues to find and publish the finest in recipes for your culinary adventures. Tuna Quiche anyone?
Jeff's Justice Journal: Multi-blogger Jeff Boyd (also a contributor to Adventist Environmental Advocacy) attempts to answer the questions, "What does justice look like in our postmodern, pluralistic world created by God?" and "What does the Bible teach about justice?" You'll also find an impressive link roll of peace and social justice causes.
Zambian Adventists: From June '07. Chikonga Gwaba of Zambia must've just received the memo about contemporary worship music. He takes offense at seeker-sensitive services in U.S. churches: "It has become apparent to me that the Seventh Day Adventist Church in North America has lost its Identity and is now wondering after the ways of the world and those of the Evangelical Charismatic movement. The music in our churches today would probably give God's Messenger sister White a heart attack!" Welcome to 1987, Chikonga.
