    In this episode, I am joined by Pastor Ray Valenzuela to discuss the impact of recent federal immigration enforcement actions in Minnesota and how local Adventist churches responded. The conversation explores the challenges faced by immigrant church members, how the church navigated a dual reality of fear and calm, and the ways they mobilized to support families affected by the crisis.

    Balancing Belief: Adventists on the Defense and Promotion of Religious Freedom

    In this thought-provoking podcast, we dive into the importance of religious liberty, a core value for Adventists and a vital principle for any faith community. Joined by Nathaniel Gamble, Public Affairs and Religious Liberty Director for the Rocky Mountain Conference, the conversation unpacks why defending religious freedom—for everyone, not just those who agree with us—reflects God’s own respect for human choice. Discover how faith, freedom, and love intersect in real-life scenarios, and pick up practical tips on living out these values generously every day. Timestamps: 00:00 Adventists emphasize prophecy, including Saturday Sabbath observance. 06:05 God interacts with unexpected individuals, respecting freedom. 10:06 Conversations reveal commonality; address differences compassionately. 13:35 Religious liberty discussed; upcoming Sabbath highlighted. 15:24 Adventist vision focuses on salvation, not destruction. 17:51 Podcast could change evangelical approach to kindness. 21:29 Focus on Jesus, not on secondary matters. 25:50 Religious liberty, stewardship, and forgiveness foster understanding. 28:08 Podcast aims to inspire more generous living.
