About the author

In brief, Ellen Gould Harmon White 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. Her writings cover a broad range of subjects, including religion, education, social relationships, evangelism, prophecy, publishing, nutrition, and management. Her life-changing masterpiece on successful Christian living, Steps to Christ, has been published in more than 140 languages. Seventh-day Adventists believe that Mrs. White was more than a gifted writer; they believe she was appointed by God as a special messenger to draw the world's attention to the Holy Scriptures and help prepare people for Christ's second advent. From the time she was 17 years old until she died 70 years later, God gave her approximately 2,000 visions and dreams. The visions varied in length from less than a minute to nearly four hours. The knowledge and counsel received through these revelations she wrote out to be shared with others. Thus her special writings are accepted by Seventh-day Adventists as inspired, and their exceptional quality is recognized even by casual readers. As stated in Seventh-day Adventists Believe ... , “The writings of Ellen White are not a substitute for Scripture. They cannot be placed on the same level. The Holy Scriptures stand alone, the unique standard by which her and all other writings must be judged and to which they must be subject” (Seventh-day Adventists Believe ... , Ministerial Association, General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists, Washington D.C., 1988, p. 227). Yet, as Ellen White herself noted, “The fact that God has revealed His will to men through His Word, has not rendered needless the continued presence and guiding of the Holy Spirit. On the contrary, the Spirit was promised by our Saviour to open the Word to His servants, to illuminate and apply its teachings” (The Great Controversy, p. vii). The following is a more detailed account of the life and work of this remarkable woman who, meeting all the tests of a true prophet as set forth in the Holy Scriptures, helped found the Seventh-day Adventist church.

Reviews

[Daniel Fevrin · Rating 4 out of 5]

Its an oldie but the message is pretty straight forward

[Moyomoyo · Rating 5 out of 5]

Amazing book on Love, Marriage, and Relationships. Though her letters were written in the 1880's - 1890's her message is just as important in today's society. Everyone should read this when they want to enter into the dating world, or couples who are planning on marriage, or how to develop to be a good spouse. After the medias take on relationships or how young people treat dating so casually now, reading this book feels so enlightening and freeing. Ellen G. White is not hesitant to say it how it is. . . Bold and straightforward.

I purchased this book for my kindle and it is a quick read in terms of pages. However, it is more for meditation and reflection than a quick read. It concerns singles and couples who are contemplating marriage. The book is a combination of excerpts from her other writings and letters she wrote to young people. Ultimately, one should consult God for wisdom in dealing with this subject.

Greatbook

My girl friend and I are preparing for engagement and we both found this book to be of great help!

[Evelynn · Rating 4 out of 5]

H'm, more like a 4.5.

Letters to Young Lovers gave great insight on how one should conduct oneself concerning a relationship, and Mrs. White had a lot of things to say when it came to how not to conduct oneself concerning the same. I found it extremely interesting and helpful, and I wouldn't mind reading it again someday.

When I read this book around sometime between 2006-2007, I did not know that the author was long gone because she wrote like she lived in my section of the 20th century. I remember that the issues she addressed such as dating and love was so applicable to the society that I live.

[David Santos · Rating 5 out of 5]

it amazes me at how spot on she is with mixed relationships considering this was written some 200 years ago? im not good at math but some very good words and letters for young couples married or not.

Puts everything into perspective

[Ms. Ikonge · Rating 4 out of 5]

Interesting read, especially so when you are preparing for marriage. It tries to explain what love is and how you can build a solid relationship with your partner and thrive in marriage.
