This 394-page volume is edited by John W. Reeve, Ph.D., assistant professor of church history at the Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary at Andrews University. Chapters were contributed by luminaries of Adventist ministry and scholarship. The dean of the Seminary wrote Chapter 1 and noted: “The biblical understanding of ordination is not that the act changes those who are set aside, but only that the church is acknowledging what God has already done by equipping them through the gifts of the Spirit.” (Dr. Jiří Moskala)
