Small Kansas church reverses losses

ANDOVER, Kan. (BNc) — A small congregation turns things around, with door-knocking and clothing give-aways, and five baptisms.

Not long ago the Andover church had over 100 saints, many of them children. As with many American congregations, they have been hit with the age factor. A few move away and some pass away, but what Andover has in 2011 is a core group who is hopeful of the future in the Flint Hills of Kansas. Read more

Adventist pastor starts ‘new walk toward eternity’

by Antônio de Barros

ARAPIRACA, Brazil (BNc) – Four months ago, I met an Adventist ex-pastor named Samuel, who after 27 years in this movement abandoned it to become just a Christian.

Sunday, Sept. 18, I and four other brethren went to visit his home in a city 150 km from Maceió.

We had lunch in his home and spoke for three hours on sound doctrine. Everyone marveled at what we heard from him, “I passed all these years lost in a denomination, and I’m starting my spiritual life from zero, starting a new walk toward eternity.” Read more

Brazil city hears gospel for first time

by Joseph McKinney, Jr.

The true gospel comes for the first time to a city in  Brazil’s northeast region.

Sapé is the tenth largest city in the state of Paraíba, population 50,000. It began in 1883 with a Great Western train station, coming to be recognized as a city in 1925.

Its name comes from the Indian word for a type of grass predominant in the area, eçape. The Indians would bundle the grass together, making a torch to light their path at night. Read more

Talking to telemarketers about their soul

by Arthur Pigman

I often receive calls from telemarketers here at the Evans, Ga., church. Recently, I have started taking over the conversation and talk to them about their soul, about God and the Bible. Most of them hang up on me.

But today a man called, and he admitted he was an atheist. I talked to him about some of the proofs that there is a God. He has become interested and called back three times. We have had some good discussions. He plans to call back tomorrow.

I still do not know what product he was trying to sell. But I have something to give him, that is the truth.
