Missions And Media And The Pentecostal Tradition, Elena Espinoza 2022 Southeastern University - Lakeland

Missions And Media And The Pentecostal Tradition, Elena Espinoza

Masters of Theological Studies

This thesis sought to discover how the use of media for missions developed within the Pentecostal tradition. In order to accomplish this, the historical development of the print medium and the introduction of radio will be analyzed. Additionally, methods of visual media will be introduced by discussing televangelism, media and theology, and the ethics of missions photojournalism. From there, the thesis transitions to the current use of digital media. Digital media today includes, but is not limited to, electronic newsletters, photos, videos, and social media. For the sake of this paper, only those for digital media mediums/platforms will be discussed. …

Same Purpose, New Approach: A Case Study Of The North Dakota Bismarck Mission Using Social Media During Covid-19, Scott L. Howell 2022 Brigham Young University

Same Purpose, New Approach: A Case Study Of The North Dakota Bismarck Mission Using Social Media During Covid-19, Scott L. Howell

Faculty Publications

This is the story of how one mission in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Church) adapted its approach, but not its purpose, to invite all to come unto Jesus Christ during the first 16 months of the COVID-19 pandemic (March 2020 to July 2021). The North Dakota Bismarck Mission (NDBM hereafter) covers all or parts of the states of North and South Dakota, Minnesota, Montana, and Nebraska, and, like the other 404 missions¹ throughout the world, traditional approaches to missionary work were significantly disrupted by the effects of COVID-19. No longer were missionaries able to find and …


A Biblical Foundation For Visions And Dreams, Wilfred T. Adderley Sr. 2022 Andrews University

A Biblical Foundation For Visions And Dreams, Wilfred T. Adderley Sr.

Journal of Adventist Mission Studies

This article looks at the biblical foundation that supports the idea that God is still speaking to human beings today through visions and dreams. God has not left communication of his will for humans today totally in the hands of Scripture since he continues to communicate with religious leaders, pastors, the church, unbelievers, and those who hate him through visions and dreams. This article illustrates that God continued to communicate his will through vision and dream experiences from the time of creation until today. Despite widespread skepticism among many toward visions and dreams, God continues to speak by these supernatural …

A Life-Changing Dream With Missiological Lessons, Michée Badé 2022 Andrews University

A Life-Changing Dream With Missiological Lessons, Michée Badé

Journal of Adventist Mission Studies

In 2012 Touara, a young Dendi woman in her early twenties had a dream that led her to Christ (see December 2012 Adventist Frontiers). The article described how God answered our team’s six years of prayer for dreams and visions among our Dendi Muslim friends in the Northeastern part of Benin in West Africa. This article describes how dreams and visions are important for Muslims, summarizes Touara’s dream, and then, draws some missiological implications from such life-changing dreams.


Integrating Medical Pluralism In Southern Africa: The Case Of The Zion Christian Church’S Healing Motif, Olaotse Obed Gabasiane 2022 Adventist International Institute of Advanced Studies

Integrating Medical Pluralism In Southern Africa: The Case Of The Zion Christian Church’S Healing Motif, Olaotse Obed Gabasiane

Journal of Adventist Mission Studies

The challenges that Western-trained medical missionaries and Christian doctors face is that their African patients, some of whom may be Christians, do consult all the healers in the parallel medical systems freely and almost simultaneously, the result of which may be complications, and possibly mental confusion, due to medications from different sources being taken at the same time without any liaison between doctors and healers.

Competing Notions Of Humility: Why Korean Americans Do Not Need To Abandon Confucius To Get To Christ, Eunice Hong, Max Botner 2022 Cornerstone University

Competing Notions Of Humility: Why Korean Americans Do Not Need To Abandon Confucius To Get To Christ, Eunice Hong, Max Botner

Great Commission Research Journal

Korean Americans often go to church not only for religious reasons, but also for social and cultural reasons. Due to the close tie between the Korean immigrant church and cultural traditions, second-generation Korean Americans often struggle with trying to balance Eastern and Western cultural values. In particular, tensions arise for second-generation Korean Americans between competing notions of humility. Such tensions, however, provide opportunities to reflect on the particular nature of Christian humility. This article presents biblical humility as one that is neither the maintenance of cultural traditions nor the personal growth of individual disciples; rather, Christ-shaped, Spirit-filled humility is the …
