Confessions of an Adventist boy
J. D. Allen
Synopsis "Confessions of an Adventist boy"
There's a common thought growing amongst American young people who have grown up within the Seventh-day Adventist community that are causing them to break their silence and reveal personal confessions about sensitive, hush-hush topics. Many have long felt unsatisfied with the ability of their protestant leaders to properly address concepts surrounding education, sex, baptism, money, gender bias and much, much more. "Because the Bible says so" just doesn't seem to be cutting it anymore. What has kept individuals from voicing their true concerns and spiritual struggles over the years? Fear - a fear amplified as they've watched other believers lose their jobs, their education and even their social standing within this religious culture. But, through Confessions of an Adventist Boy, this group is revealing why some Christians choose to stay in the church while others are leaving... for good. What are seen as the pros and cons of their private education system? How has their upbringing affected their view of the sabbath day? How many are refusing to pay tithe? Will they come back to the church when they have children of their own? How much is faith and prayer integrated into their daily lives? AND what does all this all mean for the sustainability of the church?This project was not commissioned by the SDA church but was conducted voluntarily by one of its members in the hopes that lending a listening ear to the those who grew up Adventist or were heavily submerged within the culture growing up will encourage positive dialogue about change and growth. Bonus: Enjoy unfiltered testimonials & survey results analyzing 10 of the 40 areas of interest presented in the book.
