Ellen White wrote that “when the gospel ministers and the medical missionary workers are not united, there is placed on our churches the worst evil that can be placed there.” (Manuscript 46, 1904). She is clear that ministers and medical missionaries should work in harmony, but this is not the case in many cases. This class will look at Adventist history; specifically at the power struggles between Dr John Harvey Kellogg MD and the General Conference, to learn lessons of how the ministers and medical missionaries of today can co-operate harmoniously to fulfill the gospel commission.
