"I want you to go live with Mrs. Whitman so you can learn to be a fine lady into love the real God."

These words of her father, Jim Bridger, were were the beginning of a sometimes sad, sometimes glad--sometimes frightening--adventure for Mary Anne Bridger, the young half-Indian daughter of an American frontiersman.

Traveling west for many weary, often anxious, weeks with a wagon train on its way to Oregon, Mary Anne finally arrived at the Whitman mission in Rye-grass country, near what is now Walla Walla, Washington. There she saw Christianity and action--it was involved in a great tragedy.… (más)

Lieutenant Commander Hellman's face grew dark. "You have a contract with the United States Navy. Why are you not fulfilling that contract?"He shoved a document toward Chris."You sign this paper saying that you would give your service to the United States Navy, but now you refuse. You are not only disobeying the Navy, you are disobeying God!"Chris opened his mouth to answer, but the officer had not finished."You expect the Navy to arrange its entire program around your whims?""No, sir," Chris answered.

Every October 22, Adventists familiar with their heritage reflect on that black night in 1844 when jubilant hope was suddenly destroyed at the stroke of midnight. What was it like to live through that chattering time? To sacrifice not only possessions, but the closest of human relationships, in preparation for meeting Jesus face-to-face? What must it have been like, as October 23 donned, to weep oneself to exhaustion, suffocated by the crushing weight of an inexpressible grief?Till Morning Breaks, by Elaine Egbert, is a dramatic retelling of this heart wrenching experience. Through the eyes, ears, and hearts of the Fletcher family and others, you will relive that traumatic time and taste these believers passion for the Savior in a way you never could with a straight historical account.As you read, at least two questions may surface: are we today as willing as were our Advent forebears to surrender everything in order to stand face-to-face with Jesus, with nothing between?And could it be that we who live on earth a century and a half later will yet see, with their own eyes and in our own lifetime, the glorious morning of Christ's return that we've all waited for so long?… (más)
