The journey at the Adventist Youth Congress has come to an end. Because it was the first AYC experience I’ve attended, I thought it would be appropriate to share some of my reflections about it, and also the general situation of Adventist youth gatherings (I’ve also attended a GYC event previously). The Organization and Environment of the Congress
It's Sabbath evening (August 4) in Valencia and there is an atmosphere of celebration. Seven young people have decided to publicly commit their lives to God and were baptized. The entire program was filled with supportive shouts and cheerful clapping. The praise and worship team led the congregation using a balanced mix of hymns and contempo
The second full day (third overall, including the first evening) I faced a real struggle at AYC2017. For those of us lacking a regular intense workout, AYC2017’s full schedule, including an early morning exercise routine, gave my leg muscles some painful aches.

Despite this, we seldom think about our indebtedness to the theological giants that came before us. So in honor of the 500th anniversary of the Protestant Reformation, The Compass Magazine invites you to submit an arti
It took me 4 years to learn what the Sabbath personally means to me. Rewinding to the beginning of 2016, something life-changing was supposed to happen. In February, I applied at Andrews University. The secret desire to study there had always been there but I just thought, I'm not smart enough for that school. I finally found the courage to do so.
I lived my entire life as an atheist before I first stepped foot into a Sabbath keeping church. I never went to church on Sunday, so it was not difficult for me to make any traditional transitions in going to church on Saturday. I was led out of atheism first by the book Steps to Christ, which led me to read the gospels, where my mind was totally b
Lean In by Sheryl Sandberg, COO (Chief Operating Officer) of Facebook, became the how-to Bible for some women’s quest for self-actualization. But was Sandberg correct in her thesis? Can most women with children “lean in” and “have it all”? Here, we share a few articles that have looked at this question from a different angle. Anne Marie Sl
