seventh-day adventist church mug
A Protestant denomination that emerged in the 1850s and early 1860s from the movement led by Baptist evangelist William Miller that began modern focus on the return of Christ. Miller used exegesis of apocalyptic passages in the Bible books of Daniel and Revelation to make predictions that Jesus Christ would return to earth in 1843 or 1844. When the last and most specific prediction failed on October 22, 1844, the widespread interest in his ideas collapsed. A small group made up mostly of young adults began a series of Bible-study retreats where they systematically re-studied all aspects of Christian faith to get beyond the various traditions that had been passed down over the centuries and get back to the authentic, original Christian basics. This resulted in the slow development of the Adventist denomination over a period of more than a decade. By 2006, membership has grown to more than one million in North America, with some 20 million adherents worldwide. Most Adventist members live in small towns and rural areas despite the fact that in the 1880s through 1905, the Church operate a network of city missions. Dr. John Harvey Kellogg, dean of a medical school sponsored by the Church in Battle Creek, Michigan, worked closely with Jane Addams and the settlement house movement in Chicago during this time, operating free clinics, homeless shelters and nutrition programs staffed by medical students and nursing students from the American Medical Missionary College. After 1906, when Kellogg split with the Church, the medical college was re-established in southern California and became what is today Loma Linda University. The majority of Adventist Church members in urban congregations today are ethnic minorities. A large percentage are African Americans, with other significant portions among immigrants from the Caribbean and Latin America, Korea and the Philippines. Adventist Community Services, the faith-based charity sponsored by the Church, has an Inner City Program that funds community action projects in urban communities. A number of urban ministry organizations have been started by Adventists in the last decade: Adventist Metro Ministries in New York City, Adventist Community Development Services in Newark (NJ), Adventist Humanitarian Resource Center in Philadelphia, Adventist Community Services of Baltimore, Adventist Community Services of Greater Washington, Adventist Community Services of Greater Pittsburgh, etc. The Center for Metropolitan Ministry at Columbia Union College in Takoma Park, Maryland, serves as a research, training and resource center for Adventist and other Christian urban ministries.

The mug is a gift for our Fantasy Football league winner…or loser. I'm not sure yet; it's a bit of a spoof that will be disclosed on Thanksgiving.

What is there to say? It's a mug, with a word in front and the definition in back. Nicely done!
This will be the perfect gift this winter! It even came in a nice little box. The mug seems to be of good quality. It was a bit pricy, got to be honest, but it’ll be very well received.
Deathless but probably comatose verse This cup is a beautiful mug From which I am happy to chug while engaging in jomo (the obverse of fomo), and pulling the ol' cyber plug.
The mug is just the right size, and the graphics are awesome!
This mug... this mug gave me a feeling that I can only describe as pure euphoria. The 'MRI - Man's a Real Idiot' mug is truly a gift from above. I cannot express how happy I am with it. When it arrived at my front door, it was a moment of epiphany for myself. My eyes were opened. I understood what was missing in my life... and it was that very mug. Whoever created it is truly gifted. I bless them. You too could purchase it, although the price may seem high at first, for what it is, it is the greatest deal one could ever make.
Would have like the entire cup with purple color. Not just the part with the slogan. It's a nice cup!
Wow! Outstanding mug! I strive to be swoogish one day
