Its almost prophetic! Wow!!!!! makes me teary eyed! Lord Help our Church! A.G. Daniels on Adventist Ministry, 1912. “From the beginning of our work we have recognized a very important division of the work for our ministers. We have not settled our ministers over churches as pastors to any large extent. I hope this will never cease to be the order of affairs in this denomination. For when we cease our forward movement and we settle over our churches and stay by then and do their thinking and praying and their work, then our churches will begin to weaken and lose their life and spirit and become paralyzed and fossilized and the work will be weakened.” “All Seventh-day Adventist clergyman are missionaries, they are not located pastors, the are busy teaching, preaching and organizing churches...In the first place, we have no settled pastors. Our churches are taught largely to take care of themselves, while nearly all of our ministers work as evangelists in new fields.” Interview with Elder Starr in an Indiana Newspaper (October 1, 1886)
