Most of today was spent talking with the Adventist Mission people, Gospel Ministries International people, and Bill Dull again. The man at AM was very interested in my story of travelling around spreading the 1858gc book, and we even had a civil discussion on how to approach Muslims. The Quiet Hour man was quite supportive of the Qur’an which should give a pause to anyone considering supporting them. Jon Wood and David Gates kindly gave me around 45 minutes of their time (lunch break ++) discussing how to spread this 1858gc book, and also maybe how i could work with their team in the media dept., working on this Great Controversy animation. They also invited me to appear for an interview on their Mission TV Thursday afternoon at 2pm. Please pray for me to know what to do, and how to give a proper interview.
Today i met the president of the SDA church in Armenia while in the bathroom. I had stayed at his house when i was in Azerbaijan. The other “chance” encounter was with the man in charge of Jeeva Jyothi in India. Just a 1/2 year ago i spent a couple of nites at his place, wondering if the wild elephants would come and rampage and tear the place down. His wife was even with him, saying it was the first time she’d ever come to America. No doubt it looks cleaner to her in many ways, and there are no wild elephants to worry about, but maybe the lack of people induces loneliness or the absence of neighbors calling out to her might make her feel left out….
The evening Yes Creation! meeting was excellent, with a professor at Andrews University explaining in new and interesting ways how creation is at the core of Seventh-day Adventist theology. He drove home the point that creation or re-creation is in “seventh-day” and “adventist”. It was a resounding talk which made one’s heart glad to be part of this great Seventh-day Adventist movement 🙂
