"[God] used art to help me to move forward, He used art to do something new in me ... And I think one of the reasons I love art and I have loved my journey is because it allows us to go back to it childlike place, when we think about worshiping God, and we think about getting in a space with God," says Regina Johnson.

Members of the Ohio Conference and Allegheny West Conference (AWC) began 2022 with a renewed focus. Led by presidents Marvin C. Brown, III (AWC) and Bob Cundiff (Ohio), members joined together for the second annual 31-day President’s Bible Reading Challenge.
A monthlong journey through the Bible is a fast-paced overview of the Great Controversy from beginning to end—a different interaction with Scripture than typical daily devotional study. Readers must put away most other books and TV in order to accomplish the pace of covering around 39 chapters per day.
