Bettina Krause, Liberty Magazine
In March, 2021, Nathan and Moe commenced graduate studies in a Master of Human Rights program at Curtin University, Perth, Western Australia. This podcast series is their thinking out loud about their educational experiences, their reflections on aspects of the material they are learning and wrestling with, and how this intersects with their Adventist faith and the faithful call to do justice in our world.
Bettina Krause is the recently appointed editor of Liberty magazine, based at the North American Division. A lawyer by training, she has previously served at the General Conference in the departments of Public Affairs and Religious Liberty, and Communications. She spoke with Moe and Nathan about religious liberty, where it fits in the larger discussion of human rights and what she wishes the church understood more about these issues.
Nathan Brown is book editor at Signs Publishing Company, the Adventist publishing house based just out of Melbourne Australia. He is author of 17 books, including Advent, Of Falafels and Following Jesus, For the Least of These, Engage and Do Justice, and continues to write for a variety of publications around the world.
Moe Stiles has recently moved back to Australia, having served in the United States, with her husband Adrian, as the Lead Pastor of Oasis Christian Center, Vancouver, Washington. Moe is now serving as Chaplain for AdventCare Whitehorse, Melbourne, while pursuing postgraduate study. Moe is driven by justice advocacy work, community connectedness, authentic living, building leaders, and passionately yearns to see the person of Jesus truly honored in the way we live and love.
