Choosing the Robe of Righteousness Washington, USA My name is Kevin Hughes and I was baptized as a Seventh-day Adventist on March 22, 2014. I was not raised Adventist. I was born in 1994 to Roman Catholic parents and they did the best they could with the light given them, even though I was certainly no easy child to …
More Than Just Books It is hard to believe that we are at the end of this canvassing campaign—it has been fun! The Lord has certainly shortened the time for the sake of the elect.

An Invisible Mission Field in Virginia Have you ever had the desire to go to the “mission field”? Seeking the lost is what Christianity is all about.

One of the biggest challenges that we face in the world today is that everyone thinks they are fine. People have told me countless times as we visit them or hand literature to them, “I’m good.” When everyone thinks that they are “good,” it is very difficult to share with them the only One who truly is good.

Leaves of Autumn 24/7 Some of God’s guiding in my life has been unmistakable. Sometimes I am not sure what is happening or why; however, I do know that God is in control!
