Sons and Daughters of God - Counsel and Instruction From the Ellen G. White Writings

Who was Ellen G. White, and why do millions consider her writings of special value and significance? In brief, she was a woman of remarkable spiritual gifts who lived most of her life during the nineteenth century (1827-1915), yet through her writings she is still making a revolutionary impact on millions of people around the world. During her lifetime she wrote more than 5,000 periodical articles and 40 books; but today, including compilations from her 50,000 pages of manuscript, more than 100 titles are available in English. She is the most translated woman writer in the entire history of literature, and the most translated American author of either gender. In this volume, with its daily devotional readings, have been assembled appropriate counsel and instruction drawn from these accumulated E.G. White writings as kept on file in the office of the Ellen G. White Publications. Many times the message of the day reflects a freshness of approach as Ellen White, under the varied circumstances of her experience, passed on words of cheer and encouragement. In each case, whether drawn from book, periodical article, or manuscript, the source reference is given. The volume has been compiled under the direction of the Trustees with whom Mrs. White left the care of her writings, and in harmony with her directions to this Board.That this volume may lead each reader to a deeper appreciation of what it means to be a child of God, is the sincere wish of the publishers.
