We have dedicated this issue of Proclamation! to calling us to accountability. Dale Ratzlaff challenges us to trust God’s word when it conflicts with Adventist doctrine. Terry Mirra challenges us to unpack and completely divorce ourselves from our Adventist worldview, and Martin Carey explores the roots of contemplative prayer and Christian mysticism that are growing in popularity among evangelical churches. Julius Botelho tells how he found his true Savior, and we share a retrospective of the eighth Former Adventist Fellowship conference in Redlands, California. Rick Barker explores the fifth Adventist fundamental belief, and Carolyn Macomber discusses suffering as a Christian. Chris Lee concludes our issue with a reminder that we must celebrate our rights in Christ.
