1. We Make It To 100 Like It’s A Group Assignment
Blue Zones keep bragging on us. We basically turned beans into a performance-enhancing drug.
2. Healthcare Is Kind Of Our Side Hustle
We love healing people. From clinics in tiny villages to massive urban medical centers. Adventists show up with stethoscopes, wellness smoothies, and gentle encouragement to please consider a salad.
3. We Bring Our Families With Us. Always.
Sabbath lunch: part meal, part intergenerational TED Talk. Nobody sits alone unless they sprinted out the back before the benediction.
4. We Believe The Future Matters
The Second Coming isn’t our jump-scare theology. It’s our “don’t waste life” anthem. Hope with urgency.
5. Our Health Message Aged Better Than Almond Milk
Veganism before it was cool. Whole grains before cereal mascots discovered biceps. We were wellness hipsters and didn’t even know it.
6. We Have Family On Every Continent
Walk into an Adventist church anywhere in the world and someone will immediately start low-key matchmaking you while handing you haystacks.
7. Progressive Revelation Means We’re Allowed To Learn
Truth isn’t locked in the past. God gives updates. Less “frozen doctrines,” more “holy software patches.”
8. Education Is Our Love Language
Schools everywhere. Also, the only community that treats summer camp like a theology degree with canoeing.
9. We’re Friendly Rebels
Not rebellious like breaking laws. More like politely questioning everything while still making sure the chairs are stacked afterward.
10. Hope Is Our Whole Personality
Bad headlines can’t kill our optimism. We’ve read the ending. Spoiler: love wins.
