It can be intimidating to read the Bible, either in personal devotion time or to lead a small group. In this episode, our team grapple with a random passage to both get something uplifting for ourselves but also to model how one can approach the Bible and find ways to access its richness to uplift, teach, challenge and grow the individuals who are reading. There is also something to be said for approaching the Bible as a community, so this conversation will feature some of our community, Jarrod, Zanita and Jesse. #RecordLive Wednesdays 4pm, Friday mornings podcast.

Last year Adventist Record celebrated our 125th anniversary. In this episode, we are going to share the sermon from that Sabbath celebration as not all could attend.

Today we explore Zanita's trip to Morocco and what it taught her about prayer and faith and of course, we get practical! Are we intentional enough about our spiritual disciplines? Can we find intentionality in ritual? Is the meaning behind the ritual as important as the practice of it?  #RecordLive Wednesdays 4pm, podcast Friday mornings.
