Ellen G. White was a 19th and 20th century evangelical crusader for humanitarian uplift. She was a great visionary and source of energy in establishing numerous medical, educational, publishing, and evangelical institutions and ministries worldwide. She is known to be the most prolific nonfiction author in the U.S. history. In the course of her lifetime, she wrote over 40 books, which, along with her posthumous works, have sold an astonishing 100+ million copies in 150 countries around the world. Her writings-known for their rare wisdom and inspiration- have had a universal appeal and been read and loved by generations from every continent on earth. Drawing upon the enormous volume of her works, Arise and Shine makes available in one single location, an organized, comprehensive, and premier collection of her writings on Christian service. In the powerful, and inspirational style that has blessed millions, she drives home with great force the evangelical principles of God's Word, the glorious example of Christ's ministry, and the imperative that the church completes its single mission to carry the gospel to the world.
