Carson Spotlights Seventh-day Adventist Church

As retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson's popularity grows in the race for the White House, the spotlight is turning to his faith.
 
The Seventh-day Adventist Church is not well-known, but that is changing.

Church officials are unveiling a new website to provide some answers. It's called WhoAreAdventists.org.

The site shares how the church started, their beliefs, and what they practice.

The term adventist refers to the belief that Christ's second coming is near. The church uses ther term "Seventh-day" because of the belief that the Bible requires observing the Sabbath on Saturday, the seventh day of the week.

Adventists make religious freedom a high priority -- not just for the church, but for all faith groups.

They place a high focus on health, but not on politics and urged members - even with one of their own running for president - to keep politics out of the pulpit.
