Messenger of the Lord, by Herbert E. Douglass, is the most comprehensive treatment
of Ellen G. White's prophetic ministry ever produced.
How did her roles as wife, mother, neighbor, soul winner, and public personality affect her
prophetic function? What is the relationship between her writings and the Bible? How should we
listen to her writings today? Are they still relevant? What was the impact of her ministry on
the development of the Seventh-day Adventist Church and its doctrines?

brought and for those who want to know more about her. Those with unresolved questions about her
long ministry will enjoy the candid discussion of issues
that have been raised in recent years about her claim to be God's messenger.
