Ministering Hope to the Hurting Heart

is an inspiring, gentle guide for people called to minister to abuse survivors. Buoyed by the Word, a clear vision of the healing process, and practical suggestions, you will be empowered by Christ, the Balm in Gilead, to bring healing hope to survivors.

This essay poses concepts and questions for Adventists to consider when considering their Christian relationship with the greater community. In particular, should an Adventist serve in the military, law enforcement agencies, or intelligence gathering? Is such service incompatible with the Christian faith? Can it be acceptable? What criteria determine the answers? This essay does not purport to give all the answers, but it does try to stimulate some thought that may assist individuals in the decision-making process as they seek to determine God’s will for their lives.
