  • Master of Arts in Youth/Young Adult Ministry
    Youth and Young Adult Ministry, MA 2012-2013 Program Review Program Review # 1. How does the program contribute to the mission of Andrews University and the Seventh-day Adventist Church? Andrews University Mission Statement: “Andrews University, a distinctive Seventh-day Adventist Christian institution, transforms its students by educating them to seek knowledge and affirm faith in order to change the world.” Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary Mission Statement: “We serve the Seventh-day Adventist Church by preparing effective leaders to proclaim the everlasting gospel and make disciples of all people in anticipation of Christ’s soon return.” Department of Discipleship and Religious Education Mission Statement: “The Discipleship and Religious Education programs prepare men and women to fulfill the teaching and discipling mandates of the Gospel commission as they minister. Our goal is to prepare pastors and teachers for leadership roles in settings where religious, moral, spiritual nurture, and spiritual growth are the primary concerns.” As a department within the seminary, the Department of Discipleship and Religious Education has three programs, A PhD in Religious Education, an MA: Religious Education and the MA in Youth and Young Adult Ministry (MAYYAM). This program review focuses on the MA in Youth and Young Adult Ministry program, although it must be acknowledged that it is difficult to completely separate this program from others in the department because of faculty and other resource sharing. How the Program Contributes to the Mission of Andrews University and the Seventh-day Adventist Church? As pastors, laity and church administrators’ become increasingly aware of the growing body of research regarding current youth retention within the church, the foresight of those who established the MA in Youth and Young Adult ministry will be appreciated.

    By Christine Pickering ROSEVILLE, Calif. – Scott Reiner, the visionary Adventist Health CEO who has led the nonprofit, faith-based company to reimagine the future of healthcare, is leaving at year end to establish a family foundation that is focused on global health and well-being, Board Chairman Dr. Ricardo Graham announced on July 30. Printed: September 2021 - Page 1 of 53 Article reprint from Adventistfaith.com on September 2021 2021© Pacific Union Conference of Seventh-day Adventists Copyright, All Right Reserved. “Scott has served Jesus’ healing ministry exceptionally well for more than 30 years,” Graham said. “The board and I are deeply grateful for all that he has accomplished and are excited for his new calling.” The board will identify candidates to carry on the organization’s sacred work during this next chapter at Adventist Health, he said. Reiner, who has served as CEO since 2014, is confident in the company’s future, given its dynamic and experienced leadership team and the company’s bold 2030 strategy that extends its reach beyond sick care into well-being, he wrote in a letter to all associates on July 30. “Personally, our work has always been about living our mission and expanding love and care to those in need, and I am looking forward to carrying these values with me into the next chapter of my journey.” After beginning his healthcare career as a registered nurse at Adventist Health’s Glendale hospital, Reiner served in a variety of leadership roles, including president and CEO of the 515-bed Glendale medical center and executive vice president/chief operations officer of Adventist Health.

True, the occasion had its fair share of tearful moments, but students, employees, family, and friends who filled the gymnasium to capacity left with a spring in their steps, smiles on their faces, and hearts filled with hope. Witnessing the rich retrospective of such a Christ-centered career provides deep inspiration that even retirement can’t dampen.
