Give & Take

Adventist Life

Me: “Chloe, guess what? You get to have lunch with your favorite guy in the world!”

Chloe: “I get to have lunch with God?”

I explained to my young daughter that she would be having lunch with her second-favorite guy in the world—Daddy.

—Heather Cross Young, Nashville, Tennessee

Morning conversation with 2-year-old Noah:

“Do you know what today is?” I asked with a big smile on my face.

Noah: “Sabbath!”

“No, Noah, today’s only Monday. Today is another special day. Your birthday!”

For him, the only special day is Sabbath! 

—Wendy Engelmann, Germany13 1 0 7

Sound Bite

“When no one else would be caught dead with us, He was not ashamed
to call us brothers.”

—Pastor Jim Howard, during his December 22, 2012, Christmas sermon.

Herald's Trumpet

Hi, kids! Herald’s trumpet is once again hidden somewhere in this magazine. If you find it, send a postcard telling us where. Be sure to include your name and address! Then we’ll randomly choose three winning postcards.

In our last contest (November 15, 2012) we stumped almost everyone! We had 4 entries. Who were the winners? Micah Garcia, from Albuquerque, New Mexico; Alex Meier, from Beltsville, Maryland; and Ilcias Vargas, Jr., from Ringgold, Georgia. Each received a book from Pacific Press and a KidsView beach ball. Where was the trumpet? On page 29.

If you can find the trumpet this time, send your postcard to Herald’s Trumpet, Adventist Review, 12501 Old Columbia Pike, Silver Spring, MD 20904-6600. The prize will be . . . a surprise! Look for the three winners’ names in the May 9, 2013, edition of the Adventist Review. Have fun searching, and keep trumpeting Jesus’ love—and His second coming!
