How Superstitions Are Ruining Spirituality | EP 8 unScripted

She Opened the way to Christ

What if one courageous woman, stepping off a ship in 1895 with nothing but faith and a trunk, could spark an entire mission movement across India? Georgia Burrus arrived alone in Calcutta—no station, no salary, no guarantees—yet quietly entered zenanas, taught Bible stories, and opened hearts. From her humble school came India’s first Adventist converts: a suffering widow and a brave child widow who chose Christ over family and fortune. Their transformed lives ignited a flame that spread through schools, orphanages, and villages. Discover how one woman’s obedience opened the door for millions—and why her story still calls us to bold mission today. Listen now.

More than Interpretation

What if the key to vibrant Deaf ministry isn’t just skilled interpreters—but genuine partnership? When hearing and Deaf Adventists team up beyond translation, something powerful happens: walls crumble, gifts flourish, and the gospel reaches hearts in fresh ways. From a hesitant teen interpreter mentored by a Deaf believer, to a small church where members learned basic signs to welcome visitors, these stories reveal how love and collaboration turn Sabbath-morning strain into Sabbath joy. Discover why true inclusion demands shared leadership, not one-way help—and how your congregation can join this growing movement. A must-hear call to deeper unity in Christ. Listen now.

Adopted by Love

What if one risky decision to open your home could forever change two families—yours and a child’s? When a couple welcomed a troubled Ukrainian girl for Christmas, they never imagined the chalk heart she’d draw with their names, declaring them “сім’я”—family. What began as compassion led to costly adoption, deep healing, and a profound glimpse into God’s heart. Through laughter, tears, and transformation, they discovered how divine love moves us from orphan to heir, from fear to belonging. This moving story invites you to explore how God’s matchless adoption changes everything—past, present, and future. Don’t miss this powerful testimony of love that never gives up. Listen now.

How Superstitions Are Ruining Spirituality | EP 8 unScripted

This week on unScripted from the Adventist Review, we dive into the March edition and uncover some eye-opening truths! We explore how superstition can quietly creep into Christian (and Adventist) life—morning devotion guilt, fear-based rituals, not putting anything on the Bible, and more. Seth Pierce’s powerful article challenges us: Is our faith rooted in Scripture or mixed with magical thinking? Then we tackle one of the most shocking stats: One-third of Seventh-day Adventists worldwide still believe it’s possible to communicate with the dead. Hear real stories, the cruelty of this deception, and why soul-winning requires more than facts—it requires walking through grief with people.
