Forever Young The Secrets Of Longevity Vibrant Life Special Issue
$4.19
A recent U.S. News and World Report article titled “10 Health Habits That Will Help You Live to 100” shared a surprising piece of advice: “Live like a Seventh-day Adventist.” Not long before that article was published, the national best-selling book The Blue Zones recognized Loma Linda, California, as one of the world’s longevity “hot spots” because of its high concentration of Seventh-day Adventists. This and other media coverage is undeniably merited, considering Adventists have a life expectancy about a decade longer than the average American. So, what do Adventists know that others don’t? The following pages hold the answer. In this issue, you’ll hear from Gary Fraser, who has spent years researching the Adventist lifestyle. He shares five proven lifestyle practices common to Adventism that will actually add up to two years of life each-10 years in total. Also, The Blue Zones author Dan Buettner reveals what he learned from Adventists in Loma Linda. You’ll even meet six lively, inspiring Adventists, ranging in age from 90 to 105, who prove that the later years need not be marked by weakness or inactivity. Besides exploring several life-extending physical practices, this issue also reveals a close-up look at two health enhancing spiritual practices common to Adventism: the restorative power of Sabbath rest and the positive impact of belonging to a spiritual community. This special issue of Vibrant Life makes an excellent gift for those attending health seminars and cooking schools, as well as for sharing with friends who are interested in the Adventist lifestyle.

First one ranch hand, then two, and then her brother Mitch fall ill. Mother is convinced that the only way to protect Andi from this terrible disease is to send her far away to fussy Aunt Rebecca in San Francisco. The noisy city and Aunt Rebecca’s bossy ways may be worse than scarlet fever. But then Andi has an idea that might help save her friends back home.

He Numbered The Pores On My Face
$19.99Add to cartWhen Scarlet Hiltibidal was a teenager, plastic butterfly clips were all the rage. She couldn’t understand why they didn’t look the same in her “frizzy, bulbous hair” as they did on the blonde whose mom was a professional hair stylist. Back then, she would have sanctioned the destruction of scores of actual butterflies just to own the label “pretty butterfly clips girl.” And so it goes for many girls like Scarlet who strive for self-worth yet struggle to find it.
He Numbered the Pores on My Face is for teens who long for beauty, love, and rest. Any labels you long for today might as well be “looks good in butterfly clips” if you are not rooted in who Jesus says you are, because any self–centered identity is going to leave you in the same place: unfulfilled and unhappy. Girls will relate to Scarlet’s stories as she discusses hottie lists, eating disorders, and haphazard beauty in a way that is both humorous and thought provoking. Through it all, she describes how she found peace by learning to see life not through a mirror but through a Savior who shapes who we were, who we are, and who we will be.
