Feeling in need of a fresh re-boot in your spiritual journey? Join us for "Back to the Altar: 100 Days of Prayer" as we learn afresh what it means to be a disciple of Jesus. Each week, starting on April 4th and going through July 12th, we will be sending out an e-mail with a special Back to the Altar Bible study, practical heart challenge activity, and focused prayer requests for that specific week. We will also host a weekly zoom (Sunday 6am Eastern Standard Time) where one of our Back to the Altar leadership team will be introducing the week's study/prayer themes. During this weekly zoom meeting we will also host a special revival segment and a time of prayer. Each week, brothers and sisters from around the world will be praying together, seeking the Lord together, and asking for more together. This is an opportunity you don't want to miss. If you aren't already signed up, sign up today! 

The following is a collection of Bible promises and Spirit of Prophecy quotes that we can claim as we pray for a deeper outpouring of the Holy Spirit in our lives and church. God is faithful. His Word does not return unto Him void. Claim these promises! God will answer! In addition to this collection of quotes, we are also offering the free booklet "God Still Lives" for download. This book shows in living reality what Holy Spirit living looks like. We know you will be blessed! Dare to ask for more!

In this inspiring video, Elder Wilson and Sam Neves sit down with Melody Mason as they talk about what it means to really pray. This testimony is both inspiring and practical, and will challenge you to re-evaluate where you are in your walk with Jesus. Jesus is coming soon. Don't settle for a superficial relationship with Jesus when He is waiting for you to ask Him for more. "Call to me and I will show you great and mighty things which you do not know." Jer. 33:3

In Revelation 3:14-22 we find the appeal to the church of Laodicea and to the church living at the end of time. That's us! God intends that this message be understood and that it change us into an on-fire, Holy Spirit filled, group of people who love God more than life itself, who are willing to lay down all for Him. Many have been blessed by the popular download "Clearing the Way for the Holy Spirit" by Scott Griswold. As you study his next Bible study series, "Encountering Jesus in Laodicea," we pray that God will do an even deeper work in your heart. Let's also pray that God will help the church to understand and live this message, and not be lukewarm any longer.

Wondering what Back to the Altar is all about? In 1 Kings 18:30 Elijah called all the children of Israel near as he rebuilt the broken down altar of worship. In this special episode, Melody Mason and Shiloh Howard talk with 3ABN hosts Shelley and JD Quinn about the practical principles of Back to the Altar and what it means to be a disciple of Jesus. The Bible tells us, "Then will I go unto the altar of God, unto God my exceeding joy" (Ps. 43:4). God wants us to have joy in coming to the altar to worship Him. Spending time in His presence is the first step in discipleship. We pray you are blessed by this inspirational program.

What do you do when others look to you for spiritual leadership and you are tired, weary, and worn? Do you pretend your strength is invincible?

This article was originally published in Elder's Digest under the title, "Back to the Altar."

“Only one life, ’twill soon be past, only what’s done for Christ will last.” This quote by British missionary C.T. Studd deserves our serious reflection. Time is running out. Jesus is coming soon. How are we spending the life that we have? Missionary pilot Gary Roberts, and his wife and family, have dedicated their lives to service. But it has not been without a high cost. They lost their son in the mission field to malaria while their son was still young. Later Gary's father, also a mission pilot, was killed in a plane crash while serving. This summer, Gary himself was hit with an inoperable brain tumor diagnosis. And yet, even in the midst of his downward spiral with terminal illness, Gary's faith stood strong. "No matter what comes, we will trust Jesus," he said. Gary, one of the church's most skilled and experienced mission pilots, is gone now, but it is our prayer that Gary's death will not be in vain, but will inspire many more to get involved with Adventist Missions. We pray you are inspired by the following video of Gary's work in aviation. Again, Jesus is coming soon! Let's use the time we have before it's gone!

Looking for a way to memorize 1 Corinthians 10:13? This simple piece of music will bring you joy to sing. Remember the promise of Jude 24. He is able to carry you and to keep you from falling. He's coming soon! Hold on to Him!

In this inspiring video, filmed at 3ABN, Dr. Frank M. Hasel shares his personal testimony of how God has sustained him through the extreme grief of losing his wife of 21 years to cancer. It was actually this difficult journey that inspired him to write, what is now one of Pacific Press' best selling prayer and Bible journals, Longing for God. Hasel's testimony is packed with practical tips and ideas on how one can learn to find joy and beauty in life again. Everyone can learn something and will be richly blessed by this testimony!
