  • Psychotherapy with Seventh-Day Adventists
    PSYCHOTHERAPY WITH SEVENTH0DAY ADVENTISTS CAROLE A. RAYBURN The world, though fallen, is not all sorrow and misery. In nature itself are messages of hope and comfort. There are flowers upon the thistles, and the thorns are covered with roses. -Ellen G. White The Seventh-day Adventist Church dates from the Millerite move- ment of the mid-1800s. Conservative on most matters of morality and ethics, it is one of the few Christian denominations to have begun in North America. Also, it is one of the few denominations to have a woman as one of its founders. With its belief in the Protestant tradition, Seventh- day Adventism has conservative standards and practices concerning dress, dietary habits, abstinence from sex outside marriage, smoking and drinking alcohol, and in selection of certain types of entertainment. The 1998 Yearbook published by the General Conference of Seventh- day Adventists notes that the worldwide membership of the Church is 9,470,718 people and 4,682 churches. With 865,187 members in North America, the largest concentration of Seventh-day Adventists (SDAs) is in California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, and Hawaii. The second largest con- centration is in Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and Florida, and the third largest in the District of Columbia, Virginia, Maryland, Pennsyl- vania, New Jersey, Delaware, and Ohio. A smaller number of SDAs reside in New York, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Maine, and Bermuda (General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists, 1998). 21 1 The world conference of Seventh-day Adventists, the General Con- ference, is in Silver Spring, Maryland. The General Conference president meets with and advises church leaders from the 12 divisions of the Church (such as the North American Division), unions (made up of conferences or fields within a larger territory), and local conferences (comprised of churches within various cities).

  • Valuegenesis Studies
    Research on Adventist Education: ValueGenesis Studies Elementary & Secondary Education (39) Baker, G. M. (1996). Attitudes and support of Adventist ministers towards denominational K-12 schools. La Sierra University. Purpose. This study examines the attitudes of Seventh-day Adventist ministers regarding the importance of denominational elementary and secondary schools and self-perceived levels of support. The study also compares identified demographic variables in order to determine if a correlation exists between these variables and self- perceived attitudes and tangible support of denominational schools. Procedure. Survey instruments were mailed to 344 church ministers in the Southern and Southeastern California Conferences of Seventh-day Adventists. A return rate of 70.3 percent was achieved with 242 of the 344 ministers contacted returning their completed surveys. Appropriate inferential statistical tests were utilized and factor analysis was conducted on each major section of the survey instrument. Findings. The major findings were: (1) Philosophical attitudinal support for denominational schools is strong amongst Adventist ministers; (2) The tangible effort and action put forth by ministers in support of church schools is at a lower level than their verbal statements affirming intellectual belief in the importance and value of church schools; (3) Most ministers hold a strong belief that the denominational educational system is critical to the future health and survival of the church; (4) There are a number of identifiable concerns

  • Redacted for Privacy
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Miriam L.M. Weinbender for the degree of Master of Science in Public Health presentedon January 11, 1993.Title: Lifestyle Reduction of the Risk of Premature Sexual Activity ina High School Population of American Seventh-day Adventists: Valuegenesis 1989 Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved :_ Annette M. Rossignol BACKGROUND: Goals for reduction of adolescent American health risks include reductionof prevalence of early initiation of sexual activity among teens in the United Statesto <15% for fifteen year olds and <40% for seventeen year olds. Sucha prevalence reduction would concomitantly reduce the risks for both unwanted teen pregnancy and sexually transmitteddisease, including HIV/AIDS. METHODS: A population of Seventh-day Adventist youth surveyed in1989 reported a prevalence of teenage sexual activity <22%, less than half thepercentage of sexual activity observed in general population high school youth. This study evaluates the hypothesisthat Adventist Lifestyle behaviors modify the risks associated in other studies with precocious intercourse. An analysis of odds ratios for premature sexual activity for each of 40 variables forms the basis for this study. In addition to the odds ratios associated with theuse of tobacco, alcohol and illegal drugs, odds ratios for participation in popular entertainment, physical activities, social activities and culture specific behaviors are also studied. RESULTS: While Adventist youth show a percentage of youth participating in early intercourse well below that of adolescents in the general population, these youth show odds ratios for known risk behaviorshigher than those reported in another adolescent population by a recent similar study. Withinthis Adventist population, many generally accepted behaviors of the average American populaceappear to be risk behaviors.

    Seventh-day Adventist CHURCH MEMBER RESEARCH South Pacific Division of the Seventh-day Adventist Church Report Prepared by A Barry Gane PhD Head of the School of Ministry and Theology Avondale College of Higher Education South Pacific Division Adult Member Research This document forms the second written report on the data collected from various parts of the South Pacific Division. The study was sponsored by the General Conference of the Seventh-day Adventist church under the direction of the Department of Research and Archives and is based upon the survey developed by the John Hancock Centre for Youth and Family Ministry at La Sierra University. The data was collected by a number of people who were on the research team. Dr Murray House and myself collected the major portion of the data and Sau Finau, a theology student and Sally Lavea from the SPD office also helped with data collection. The scanning of the returned surveys and cleaning of the data was undertaken by Barry Gane and Ben Reynolds an honours student at Avondale. Alex Green another honours student was involved helping with some of the diagrams and graphs. It is clear that the most efficient and effective method was for a representative of the research committee to take the surveys to the church or meeting, distribute, coordinate the survey and collect and return with the surveys. Where local pastors have been involved the return rate has been very slow and in some cases has not resulted in any returned surveys! This research centres on the church members of the South Pacific Division, their faith, values, and commitment, and is designed to provide a descriptive portrait of a representative group of Adventist church members from this part of the world church.

  • The Impact of Adventist Schools on Students
    The Foundation for Adventist Education Institute for Christian Teaching Education Department- General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists THE IMPACT OF ADVENTIST SCHOOLS ON STUDENTS Jerome Thayer, Ph.D. Andrews University 4th Symposium on the Bible and Adventist Scholarship Riviera Maya, Estado Quintana Roo, Mexico March 16-22, 2008 The Impact of Adventist Schools on Students Jerome Thayer, Ph.D. Andrews University Since the Adventist church invests significant resources in its elementary and secondary school system, it is important to determine what impact these schools have on students. Schools have an impact on students in both planned and unplanned ways. Schools develop curriculum to foster the goals and objectives that they want to accomplish, but in addition, schools have an impact on students in areas that are not specifically taught in the curriculum. This paper only deals with the extent to which Adventist schools have an impact on the goals and objectives they have set for themselves. The North American Division Office of Education has developed a Mission of Seventh-day Adventist Education that is found on its web site. The Seventh-day Adventist Church in North America operates a system of elementary and secondary education that began in 1872. The church's unique philosophy of Christian education is based on the Scriptures and the writings of Ellen G. White. All children and youth have been entrusted by the church to the education system for spiritual nurture and educational excellence. The primary aim of Seventh-day Adventist education is to provide opportunity for students to accept Christ as their Saviour, to allow the Holy Spirit to transform their lives, and to fulfill the commission of preaching the gospel to all the world.
