Social Determinants Of Health And Disparities In Hypertension And Cardiovascular Diseases, Abhishek Chaturvedi, Anqi Zhu, Naga Vaishnav Gadela, Dorairaj Prabhakaran, Tazeen Jafar
Department of Medicine
High blood pressure causes over 10 million preventable deaths annually globally. Populations in low- and middle-income countries suffer the most, experiencing increased uncontrolled blood pressure and cardiovascular disease (CVD) deaths. Despite improvements in high-income countries, disparities persist, notably in the United States, where Black individuals face up to 4× higher CVD mortality than White individuals. Social determinants of health encompass complex, multidimensional factors linked to an individual's birthplace, upbringing, activities, residence, workplaces, socioeconomic and environmental structures, and significantly affect health outcomes, including hypertension and CVD. This review explored how social determinants of health drive disparities in hypertension and related CVD …

The History Of Graduate Theological Education At Oral Roberts University, Larry Hart, Bill Buker
The History Of Graduate Theological Education At Oral Roberts University, Larry Hart, Bill Buker
Spiritus: ORU Journal of Theology
This article traces the history of graduate theological education at Oral Roberts University from its initial inception in 1963 up until 2018 when a significant transition occurred. Special attention is given to the rebirth of the seminary in 1976 under the leadership of Jimmy Buskirk and the following seasons of its evolution under subsequent deans. From a seminary approved by the United Methodist Church to train candidates for ministry in that denomination to one reflecting a primarily Pentecostal ethos to its current role of serving the Spirit-empowered Movement, the Graduate School of Theology and Ministry (GSTM) has maintained ecumenical diversity …
Treasure State: Gambling Law, Lobbying, And The Case For The Expansion Of Legal Gambling In Montana, Trevor Funseth
Treasure State: Gambling Law, Lobbying, And The Case For The Expansion Of Legal Gambling In Montana, Trevor Funseth
Montana Law Review
Drive down a main road in one of Montana’s cities and you will count more casinos than gas stations. What’s more, even the gas station has a casino inside. Pass through a small town and you will likely find at least one Lucky Lil’s or Magic Diamond Casino. Montana is currently home to just under 1,400 state-licensed gambling operators and ranks fifth in the nation in casinos per capita with 1.7 casinos per thousand residents. One study used 21 different metrics including casinos per capita, lottery sales per capita, casino revenues, and gambling-related arrests per capita. Based on these metrics, …

Estimating Mars Surface Wind Stress And Dust Lifting Using Reanalyses Based On Emm And Other Spacecraft Observations, Haneen Abouhaligah
Estimating Mars Surface Wind Stress And Dust Lifting Using Reanalyses Based On Emm And Other Spacecraft Observations, Haneen Abouhaligah
Theses
Studying Mars offers insights into terrestrial planet evolution and informs future human expeditions. This thesis examines dust dynamics in Mars’ lower atmosphere, focusing on understanding its weather and climate. We investigate the role of Near-Surface Wind Stress (NSWS) in dust lifting, using six reanalysis datasets, respectively: MACDA, EMARS, OpenMARS, ACS–TIRVIM (ExoMars observations of the MY34 Global Dust storm), EMM1 and EMM2. Following the parameterization approach by Newman et al. (2002a), areas of agreement and discrepancy among datasets were identified. Time series analysis revealed consistent results where datasets overlap temporally. Some differences were expected and shown due to the different Global …
Does Engaging Commercial Customers In A Shared Social Mission Improve Impact Sourcing Service Provider (Issp) Success? A Critically Appraised Topic, Michael F. Corbett
Does Engaging Commercial Customers In A Shared Social Mission Improve Impact Sourcing Service Provider (Issp) Success? A Critically Appraised Topic, Michael F. Corbett
Engaged Management ReView
This topic paper examines whether engaging commercial customers through a shared social mission improves the success of social enterprises. It is based on an examination of a subset of the information technology and business process outsourcing (ITO/BPO) industries, known as impact sourcing service providers (ISSPs). ISSPs are social enterprises – B2R Technologies and Digital Divide Data are two examples – that provide call center, transaction processing, data entry, and other technology-enabled services for commercial customers from remote locations around the globe. What is unique about ISSPs is that they do this with a social mission of creating jobs and economic …

Planting Rapidly Reproducing Churches, Curtis Sergeant
Planting Rapidly Reproducing Churches, Curtis Sergeant
Journal of Adventist Mission Studies
The principles in this article are ones gleaned from experience in planting rapidly reproducing churches in China. They were then tested through training, coaching, and mentoring church planters serving in over one hundred nations, mostly working among unreached people groups. Over the years I have come to the conclusion that it is difficult to make generalizations about evangelism, but it is more appropriate to make generalizations about discipleship and church planting. Evangelism is quite context-specific because half of the process is determined by what an individual believes and understands truth to be. Once someone has given themselves fully to the …
How Should The Adventist Denomination Deal With The House Church Trend?, Monte Sahlin
How Should The Adventist Denomination Deal With The House Church Trend?, Monte Sahlin
Journal of Adventist Mission Studies
Millions of Americans have abandoned the conventional structure of religion— the congregation or parish and denomination—for small, informal groups that meet for prayer, Bible study, and fellowship in homes or other temporary locations. A similar pattern is underway in Europe, and there is evidence that it is beginning in urban areas in Latin America and Africa. In fact, it has been a primary form of Christian faith in China, India, and the Middle East for some time and this includes Adventist missions.

How A Novel Research Framework Resulted In Fruitful Evangelism And Discovery: Introducing Ethnoscopy And Spiritual Patronage, L. Lynn Thigpen
Great Commission Research Journal
Faced with an unusual question from a Cambodian friend who had heard stories from God’s Word, I embarked on a quest for an answer. He worshipped an unusual and unfamiliar object and wondered whether he must abandon it to serve Christ. I knew he did, but I needed to explore the meanings ascribed to that object of worship to communicate the gospel more clearly, just as Paul did in Acts 17 while in Athens. According to Jesus’ parable of the soils in Matthew 13, fruitful evangelism involves understanding. How might individual missionaries and evangelists aid in that crucial need? With …
After 15 Years Of Planting Simple House Churches Around The World, What Have I Learned?, Milton Adams
After 15 Years Of Planting Simple House Churches Around The World, What Have I Learned?, Milton Adams
Journal of Adventist Mission Studies
This article will highlight five areas of learning: (1) the conventional church attendance crisis, (2) church history, (3) Simple House Church planting, (4) the future of “church,” and (5) the rise of Disciple-Making Movements. It is intended to be descriptive. It is my story. In many ways, thanks to the input of many Simple Church planters, it is our collective Simple Church story of the past 15 years.

House Churches In The New Testament: Contextual, Theological, And Missiological Perspectives, Boubakar Sanou
Journal of Adventist Mission Studies
For most of the first century, private dwellings shaped the Christians’ community life. Evidence to this phenomenon is found in the Acts of the Apostles and the letters of Paul. According to Acts 2:41, the Early Church numbered more than three thousand members after Pentecost. When the synagogues became off limits to them, meeting in private homes became a practical necessity for worship, fellowship, service, and mission (Acts 2:46; 5:42). In four of Paul’s epistles, he explicitly references private homes as the gathering places for early Christians (1 Cor 16:19; Rom 16:3-5; Col 4:15; Phil 2). The epistles are better …

The Importance Of Discovery Bible Reading In Households Of Faith, Peter Roennfeldt
The Importance Of Discovery Bible Reading In Households Of Faith, Peter Roennfeldt
Journal of Adventist Mission Studies
Discovery Bible Reading is a simple, reproducible process that fosters discipleship: disciple-making, spiritual growth, maturity, and biblical literacy. It is innovative, non-threatening and easy to use, with in-built protection against heresies and conspiracies. Pastors and leaders cultivating multiplying missional communities are enthusiastic about it, and it is increasingly seen as a feature of worship in households of faith.

Metamorphosis Of The Traditional Church: The Hybrid Church Model, Steven Edward Adams
Metamorphosis Of The Traditional Church: The Hybrid Church Model, Steven Edward Adams
Doctoral Dissertations and Projects
For several decades, Church attendance in America has steadily declined. This observation is corroborated by extensive surveys and academic research analyzing church attrition. The national attendance phenomenon is evident is also evident at Livingwater Church of God. Using the Livingwater Church of God as the test lab, this project utilized and implemented the Hybrid Church Model, and evaluated its effectiveness for improvements. Substantiated by practical research surveys, interviews, and academic research, this thesis addresses attendance decline with a systematic implementation, evaluation, and modification of the Hybrid Model for the local church unique to the Western North Carolina area. This ministry …
Examination Of Volcanism And Impact Cratering On Terrestrial Bodies, Joshua J. Knicely
Examination Of Volcanism And Impact Cratering On Terrestrial Bodies, Joshua J. Knicely
Geosciences
Exploring and expanding our understanding of the planets (i.e., planetary science) encompasses a vast array of topics and disciplines. This dissertation concentrates on the surficial processes of and examination of terrestrial planets, primarily via the study of volcanism and impact cratering. The first project starts with an exploration of NIR remote sensing techniques as applied to Venus. This work found that NIR remote sensing at the clement conditions just beneath the cloud deck provide vastly improved imaging capability. This improved visibility is most notable for the tesserae, regions of Venus of great interest to the scientific community. Radar imagery and …
