They were there. They saw Ellen White. They heard her speak. Why do their stories matter to us today?
>A PREACHER WITH TWO WIVES.
> A WOMAN EVANGELIST WITH A DARK SECRET IN HER LIFE.
> A MAN WHOSE VERY PRESENCE MADE IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR ELLEN WHITE TO SPEAK.
These are just a few of the twenty-four fascinating stories you'll find in this book. Adventists who heard Ellen White preach or who saw her in vision were men and women much like us today. Like us, they had questions, problems, and anxieties as they tried to live out their faith while going about the daily activities of work, family, and church. But unlike us, many of them had the opportunity to actually see firsthand the prophetic gift in action.

Each of the individuals involved in these stories was directly affected by Ellen White and her visions. They were there - and saw for themselves the power of God that accompanied her work as she dealt with perplexing situations. Some continued to resist, but for many, the result was a mighty confirmation of their faith in her life and ministry. In each case, Ellen White, ever the soul winner, urged individuals to a closer walk with the Lord.

You'll treasure this book as a resource - a place to find some of the most fascinating stories about Ellen White - but also as a just plain "good read." Reading it will convince you that 2 Chronicles 20:20 is as applicable today as it has ever been: "Believe in the LORD your God, so shall ye be established; believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper."
