Rock and Roll music that takes you on an adventure. Similar to Adventure Metal, the umbrella term of adventure rock also encompasses the softer genres. All Adventure Rock music shares characteristics in name, style, and subject matter. Bands often have names depicting destinations or traveling, such as Journey, Kansas, Boston, Foreigner, Rush. AND/OR they create songs with different movements and fancy solos and develop fantastic and epic sounds and experiences: Queen, Tesla, Van Halen, Whitesnake. The ultimate Adventure Rock band is, of course, Led Zeppelin.

Get the cinematic adventure 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.
