A Call to Stand Apart

A Call to Stand Apart is for the twenty-first century. It deals with issues faced by contemporary young adults, drawing together a variety of previously published material of enduring relevance that has been transformed by modern language paraphrase.

In this volume the most widely translated female author of all time offers inspired counsel on relationships, health, social justice, careers, the authority of Scripture, and salvation. Each chapter is prefaced by the testimony of a young adult who has been positively influenced by Ellen White and would like to pass that inspiration on to others.

Join the missions of readers whose lives have been transformed by the call to "stand for the right though the heavens fall" and make an eternal difference in their world. Available to download for free from the Ellen G. White Estate Website

Reach Up, Reach Out, and Reach Across

Over the past five years, Tell the World has been a broad vision, a bold challenge undertaken by the Seventh-day Adventist Church. The ultimate goal is to provide every person on earth with the chance to know Jesus Christ. 


More than a program, and more than a slogan, Tell the World is our acceptance of Christ’s commission to spread the gospel to every corner of the world, to each living person. Of course, the goals and challenges of Tell the World are not new to us—they are part of the very fabric of our identity and heritage.
They are fundamental to our mission. From its very beginnings, the Seventh-day Adventist Church has been a missionary movement. We have committed ourselves to not only make our world a better place in the here and now, but also to prepare people for the world to come. This is our first priority—the very reason our church exists. Now the Church is re-emphasizing the challenge, extending an invitation to each Seventh-day Adventist to be part of this task. Now more than ever, it is time for each of us to become personally involved. The strategic plan for the Seventh-day Adventist Church from 2010 to 2015 focuses on three important values: quality of life, unity, and growth.
QUALITY OF LIFE is a multi-faceted concept that goes to the heart of what it means to be an Adventist believer. For an Adventist, quality of life means first and foremost being sure of belonging to the Lord, finding the rest and assurance of forgiveness, and finding contentment on our life’s journey. 
UNITY reflects the nature of the church as one family around the world, constantly communicating with one another, constantly sharing, and in that process learning to defer to one another for the good of the One Body of Christ. 
GROWTH is expressed through evangelism, public witness, and nurturing the personal spiritual growth of believers. Read More>>

Evangelism: Favor or Duty?

There is scarcely a subject more central to the remnant church than evangelism.* It is the very reason why Christ founded the church—not only the New Testament church, but also the church in the wilderness (Acts 7: 38).** Sadly and incredibly, many believers are unaware that evangelism is the purpose the church exists. The result is that many churches are mere strongholds of the status quo and of the spiritually dead. They have the form (maybe), no power and few, if any, baptisms. Others, a little less dead, have a summer season of evangelism at which time a public evangelistic “event” (which some members actually oppose) is held with much fanfare, then they return to their annual hibernation while all around people die without a saving knowledge of the everlasting gospel.
Is evangelism merely a seasonal activity or is it the very life of the church—corporately and personally? If Christ’s mission on earth was “to seek and to save that which was lost” (Luke 19: 10), to call “sinners to repentance” (Matt. 9: 13), to preach “the glad tidings of the kingdom of God” (Luke 8: 1), and to give life “more abundantly” (John 10: 10), how can His church function differently when the church is His body, of which He is the head? (Col. 1: 18). Is not the body, any living body, led by the head? Read More>>
