| Sumario: | The message of the Adventist Church about the Gospel of Jesus Christ and His soon return includes not only spiritual redemption but also physical and mental restoration of humankind through a healthy lifestyle. It appears that the dissemination of the Adventist Health Message (AHM) has so far been perceived as emphasizing only certain aspects, overlooking important others, and depending only on spreading knowledge while lacking contextualization to different realities. This article presents a wholeness framework to the AHM promotion by pointing to the AHM foundation, purposes, ample coverture, and ultimate goal, while also identifying both inadequate and effective methods to promote it, and the need to consider the local situation and resources of people who receive the health message. |
