  • When the Bible doesn't have the answers
    Feb 20 2025

    #RecordLive family, we're back for 2025. Many people approach the Bible as a step-by-step guide, but was it designed that way? We examine the purpose of the Bible, how to read it responsibly and how NOT to read it. We also explore the question of what to do when the Bible doesn't answer the questions you have or the scenarios modern life throws at you. Live Wednesdays 4pm, Podcast Friday mornings.

  • Is ordination biblical?
    Feb 6 2025

    The issue of women's ordination has become a wedge issue in the Adventist Church, polarising communities and dividing "conservative' and "liberal" Adventists. Parties on either side will argue "YES!" or "NO!", but is there a third route we can take to understanding the issue?

    For the next two weeks, we will be joined by Dr Darius Jankiewicz, the South Pacific Division Field/Ministerial secretary, who has done decades of research in this area. This week, we will discuss the concept of ordination generally. Then next week, we will delve deeper into the topic of women's ordination specifically.
