FRIDAY FAX - October 3, 2008 / Special Edition

Welcome with open arms fellow believers who don’t see things the way you do.
And don’t jump all over them every time they do or say something you don’t agree with
– even when it seems that they are strong on opinions but weak in the faith department.
Remember, they have their own history to deal with. Treat them gently. Romans 14.1: The Message

THE SIGN - NEW 2009 MISSIONARY BOOK OF THE YEAR - Written by Shawn Boonstra, The Sign is a pocket-sized book about the Sabbath and includes basic concepts about salvation and a relationship with God. It's perfect for sharing with stressed out, overworked and tired Americans that you meet. "I have long suspected that the relentless pace of modern life is deliberate," says Boonstra. "Someone is trying to keep us incessantly occupied, because if we stopped the endless cycle of activity for even a few moments, we would discover something amazing - the presence of God." "Boonstra approaches the Sabbath from a very personal and need-oriented way.showing the Sabbath as the answer to a common problem that so many Americans face," says Dale Galusha, president for Pacific Press®. "We are proud to publish this important sharing tool and to have it as our Missionary Book of the Year for 2009."
