This book examines the complex history of Adventism in Africa, situating it within the context of African traditions and culture. From a small movement with origins in the United States, the Seventh-day Adventist Church has grown worldwide. It is one of several Christian denominations present in Africa and yet the history of Seventh-day Adventism in the global South has been largely unexplored by scholars. The book highlights the discrepancies between western traditions exhibited in the missionary enterprise and African religious systems. It also explores the intricate relation between colonialism and African Adventism in line with established studies in African Christianity. It will be of interest to scholars of religion and theology, particularly church history and mission studies, as well as African studies.

The growth of Christianity in Africa during the twentieth century is one of the most fascinating shifts in the history of religions. This book presents a history of the Tanzanian Seventh-day Adventist Church, which is representative of this shift in many respects: slow beginnings, struggles over cultural issues, the emergence of a unique church life combining denominational heritage and African elements, frictions with governments, and the development of popular theology. Yet Tanzanian Adventism also exemplifies an important phenomenon which has been given little attention so far - the transformation of minority denominations to dominant religions. This study breaks new ground in analyzing how the Adventist “remnant” developed into an African “folk church” while attempting to remain true to its original ethos.

Do you remember singing "Jesus Loves the Little Children" in Sabbath School as a young child? "... Red and yellow, black and white, all are precious in His sight. Jesus loves the little children of the world." Jesus loves everyone, but as His followers, we often struggle to follow His example. In A Third Great Disappointment for the Remnant? Pastor Birch presents his research findings on race relations, the Millerite movement, slavery, the Civil War, segregation, the evangelical movement, and much more, addressing how these events have impacted and shaped the Seventh-day Adventist Church. He goes on to examine current race relations in the Adventist Church and the creation of ethnic conferences, and warns against a final great disappointment of lost souls at Christ's second coming if we do not reconcile ourselves with each other and finish the work as one unified body. With a passion for racial and ethnic reconciliation, Birch offers recommendations on how to strengthen the Adventist Church through understanding and healing. We are precious in God's sight, but we should also be precious in each other's sight.

Black Seventh-day Adventists comprise more than one sixth of the church membership in North America. Such a significant number would perforce share in a significant amount of denominational history, and indeed would have a significant history of their own. That is what Louis B. Reynolds has drawn here, the result of many years of patient research and interviewing. Church-wide issues and the founding and development of major and minor institutions are reviewed, as well as human-interest vignettes of individuals and local successes. The volume is enhanced with specially commissioned paintings by Harry Anderson. - Introduction, 1 The Millerite Involvement, 2 A Beginning Out of a Tragic War, 3 The Hidden History, 4 Where a Few Were Gathered Together, 5 Into the Lion's Jaws, 6 Infants of Spring, 7 Shadow and Substance, 8 The Right Arm, 9 New Trails in the Old West, 10 The Oakwood School, 11 A Bright, Believing Band, 12 Treasure in Earthen Vessels, 13 A Boarding School in the North, 14 The Branches Overhang the Fence, 15 To the Cities of the East, 16 Separate Conferences:A Road to Fellowship, 17 Ambassadors to the World, 18 Never to Become Disheartened, Appendixes
