â§â§ Welcome to Pullman SDA Church eBulletin ââ
Jesus is coming soon. This is a time for more unity in Christ, for an openness to the Holy Spirit as never before, for diligent use of our spiritual gifts, and for a more profound experience with our resurrected Lord. It is time for a genuine Christian ministry, engagement in stewardship and mission, spiritual warfare against false teachings, and growth in grace, love and fellowship. This is a time to hold fast and be faithful to the message of the Cross, and Paul’s letters to the Corinthians teach us to do just that.

Lesson 11: Stewardship and Mission: A young entrepreneur, Maya, had just launched a small tech startup focused on community health. Her team was lean, the funding was tight, and the future was uncertain, but they believed deeply in their mission. During their first profitable quarter, instead of reinvesting everything into growth like most startups, Maya suggested they donate a portion to a nonprofit helping underserved schools get access to mental health tools. Her team was hesitant. “Shouldn’t we wait until we are more stable?” one asked. Maya replied, “If we only give when it’s easy, is it really generosity? Let’s lead with purpose, not just profit.” The company gave. It wasn’t a huge amount, but it was meaningful. Months later, the donation opened unexpected doorsânew partnerships, press coverage, and even a major investor who was drawn to their values. This story mirrors the heart of 2 Co 8-9: Generosity isn’t about waiting until you’re “ready”âit’s about trusting God, giving from what you have, and watching how He multiplies it for others and for you.

Today’s Loose Offering: World Budget
Todayâs offering is for the proclamation of the Adventist gospel to all the world by radio. Adventist radio ministries have had a profound global impact, reaching people in places where traditional mission work is limited or impossible. Radio waves go where missionaries cannot go. Radio can be heard in cars and behind closed doors where people cannot enter. Romans 10:17 says, âSo, then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.â Through your offering today, many people will be reached by hearing the Adventist message on their radios. Many radio listeners enroll in Bible correspondence schools or request in-person visits. In times of uncertainty, faith-based radio brings peace and spiritual comfort. Besides Adventist Word Radio (AWR), the Adventist church supports radio stations and programs around the world that reach people with a distinctive, Christ-centered message of hope and wholeness.

Overview: Eating legumes (such as beans, lentils, peas, and chickpeas) improves heart health, helps control blood sugar, and supports a healthy gut.
- High in Fiber: A half-cup serving provides 7 to 9 grams of dietary fiber, including soluble fiber and resistant starch, which feed good gut bacteria.
- Plant-Based Protein: They offer about 8 grams of protein per half-cup without the saturated fat and cholesterol found in animal proteins.
- Rich in Micronutrients: They supply essential vitamins and minerals like iron, folate, magnesium, potassium, and zinc.
- Low Glycemic Index: Legumes have a low glycemic index, meaning they cause slow, steady rises in blood sugar rather than sharp spikes.
- Heart Health: Regular intake helps lower LDL (“bad”) cholesterol, reduce blood pressure, and decrease the risk of cardiovascular disease.
- Diabetes Management: Their low glycemic index and high fiber content improve blood sugar control and lower the risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
- Weight Control: Legumes are very filling, which helps reduce overall calorie intake and supports healthy weight management.
- Gut Health: Resistant starches and fibers act as prebiotics, increasing microbiome diversity and improving bowel regularity.
There are great vegetarian recipes online that bring out the deliciousness of legumes. Why donât you try one this week?!

All Things New Launches on September 5 with Day of Prayer: All Things New is a coordinated mission initiative centered on Jesus and expressed through four practical areas of focus. To Pray Like Jesus, Serve Like Jesus, Share Jesus, and Follow Jesus.
