The Spring 2026 issue of the Sabbath Recorder centers on “Investing in Everyday Leaders,” highlighting the faithful, often unseen ways God shapes His people for service. From pastors and missionaries to long-serving church members and everyday disciplers, this issue points to the kind of leadership that is formed through obedience, discipleship, and steady commitment to Christ and His Church.
Inside, you will find reflections on immediate obedience from Rev. Dr. Carl Greene, a tribute to Pastor Clyde Thompson’s retirement, a report from the 2025 Missionary Team to Nicaragua, and recognition of faithful women through the WISE Award and the Robe of Achievement. This issue also includes articles on investing in seven-day leaders, the cost of discipleship, tearing down strongholds with engagement, Caring for Kenya, and a word of thanks for Rev. John Pethtel’s service in Conference leadership.
