The Story of Our Health Message, The Origin, Character, and Development of Health Education in the Seventh-day Adventist Church <\/strong>By Dores Eugene Robinson (1943)<\/p>\n

This book is now available on this web site, perhaps for the first time ever on the internet, at both
\n great-controversy-movie.com\/blog\/books\/the-story-of-our-health-message.pdf<\/a>
\n and under the “good books” section at the top of this web site.<\/p>\n

Note: This is not a review. I’m just trying to make this book available to more people as it looks to be of great value to all who are interested in the health work.<\/p>\n

What made me put this book on the web is a email promoting this book by someone involved in the medical missionary work. Part of that email is as follows:
\n———
\n“In the classroom we\u2019re currently giving study to the history of the Seventh-day Adventist health message. A valuable resource in class preparation has been D.E. Robinson\u2019s book entitled The Story of Our Health Message. Here is a statement from the book\u2019s Preface: In Mrs. E. G. White’s will, dated February 12, 1912, provision was made regarding certain “proposed books,” which she greatly desired to be prepared. Among these was a historical work listed as “Experience of Ellen G. White in Connection With the Health Reform Movement Among Seventh-day Adventists.” After her death the trustees appointed by her gave early consideration to the matter of preparing such a book. Clarence C. Crisler, a trusted secretary long connected with Mrs. White’s office, was asked to undertake the task. But soon after making a beginning he was called to duties in the Far East, and the enterprise was suspended. More recently the present writer [D. E. Robinson] was asked by the trustees of the Ellen G. White Publications to bring the work to completion.<\/p>\n

“Robinson\u2019s book presents an excellent historical account of our health message, from the turn of the nineteenth century onward. I think this book should be made available to every Seventh-day Adventist; however, the book has been out of print for many years. The Wildwood Health Retreat staff has been able to scan the book and it is now in Microsoft Word file format. If you would like a free copy please send me your email address and I\u2019ll send it to you. I write this email in hopes of finding someone that might have the time and the skill to take my Word version and make it into a searchable, indexed PDF file. If you have an interest please contact me.<\/p>\n

“The book is a precious part of our history; what a blessing it would be to make it available in a convenient, readable format.”
\n———
\nSo i have done that, by putting this book up on the web. However, if doing so is infringing on any copyright or anything, please advise, and i will take it down.<\/p>\n

(Update 2021) Several people have made comments asking me to send this book. Please notice that this offer was given in a email to me by someone who was working at Wildwood Health Retreat over 8 years ago. You can easily get the book for yourself in PDF format at the link at the top of this article.<\/p>\n

May God bless as we learn more how to work as Jesus worked.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
