The Wonderful World of Ellen G. White- Part 1

Jonathan Peinado, DMin Season 9 Episode 8

In this episode we examine the prophetic gift and the life and ministry of Ellen G. White—who she was, what Adventists mean when they say she manifested the gift of prophecy, and why modern claims of prophecy remain controversial within Christianity.

We trace her story from the Great Disappointment, her first vision in 1844, and her nearly 70-year ministry, to the ways her legacy was later mythologized, challenged, and re-examined by scholars. This episode sets the stage for an honest, thoughtful conversation about inspiration, authority, history, and faith—inviting listeners to approach the gift of prophecy with humility, clarity, and maturity.
