In Other Words is the opinion page of Adventist Review staff: wide ranging, as befits the thinking of a group spanning multiple generations and encompassing more than half a dozen nationalities; spiritually earnest, as reflecting the thinking of a team of mature Christian professionals in areas as varied as journalism and technology, education and business, biblical studies and theology; sometimes lighthearted, always relevant. Marvene Thorpe-Baptiste is the editorial assessment coordinator for Adventist Review Ministries and writes of her personal experiences.  www.adventistreview.org
