Former Adventist Fact Check

by Colleen Tinker

Colleen Tinker, editor of Proclamation! Magazine, and co-host of Former Adventist Podcast, hosts this weekly podcast. Former Adventist Fact Check is dedicated to Adventists who are looking for biblical insights into the topics discussed in the Sabbath School lesson quarterly published by the Seventh-day Adventist Church. We post videos and articles which address each lesson as presented in the Sabbath School Bible Study Guide, including biblical commentary on them. We hope you find this material helpful and that you will come to know Jesus and His revelation of Himself in His word in profound biblical ways. The corresponding article is found at ProclamationMagazine.com.

What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

This has been incredibly helpful as I continue “unhooking” from my mind all of the unnecessary additions that were piled on to the Gospel as I grew up in the Adventist church. When I started attending a community church and then joined a Baptist church as an adult, I thought that they were watered-down versions of the true church, the Adventists, but I had given up on being able to embrace and be part of the Adventist subculture. Now nearly 20 years later, I am finally seeing how the entire Gospel is clear and open for all to understand and accept. God’s grace is truly free and his “true church” is made up of all who accept Jesus. Thank you and please keep going!

Raised a 4 gen SDA, I always questioned the allegiance to EGW .. I was treated like a horrible person for even thinking she may not be as legit as I was taught.. I never understood how the Bible was considered secondary to EGW.. by the grace of God. I found a Christian pastor who answered my questions and showed me everything in Gods Word. I was so free after learning the true gospel of Jesus Christ. I still have friends & family in the cult.. so I appreciate all info I find that helps me TRY to share the truth. Sadly, most reject even hearing me. It’s frustrating to know that they too could be free and find joy in the truth.. but I appreciate all that you do to help open dialogue. RIP Brother Ratzlaff, he also showed me the truth in his books.. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
