Sda Bible Conference Collection of 1919 (24 vols.)
The 1919 Bible Conference was a landmark event in SDA history with implications that linger nearly a century later. Sixty-five Adventist administrators, theologians, educators, and editors wrestled with prophetic interpretation in the aftermath of World War I, while confronting issues related to fundamentalist vs. modernist debates at the dawn of the 1920s. The core of the discussion, with profound implications for SDAs in the twenty-first century, was the ongoing theological authority of the recently deceased Ellen G. White. Perhaps because of the controversial and explosive nature of the discussion that ended unresolved, the official transcripts that comprise this collection lay buried in the SDA headquarters’ vault until discovered by the church’s archivist in the 1970s. Any serious student of Adventism or early-twentieth-century American church will find a trove of historical and theological treasure in the 24 transcripts that comprise the 1919 Bible Conference Collection.

I'm delighted that the 1919 Bible Conference archives will be coming to Logos. They have been foundational in my understanding of SDA theological history, particularly in regards to the ongoing role of Ellen G. White’s writings. You will now be able to research their content in context with everything else in the Logos system and get search results with Google-like specificity and speed,

My good friend Michael did seminal research that I would love to have in the Logos system. I've been corresponding with him about having other things he is writing. I would love this dissertation as well.

The frank discussion on Ellen White and her writings helped me to be able to make sense of the problems our church has had over her writings over the last 100 years (and before). It makes me so sad that they were not made available to the church as a whole at the time. An example of a group of leaders deciding (probably for the best of motives) that the ordinary members could not handle the facts and by this action unwittingly setting up the church for the problems of the 1980s. Essential reading for all SDAs, their friends and especially their critics.
