A Heritage of Print Communication
The Seventh-day Adventist Church has used writing as a means to spread the gospel message for many years. Actually, The oldest Adventist periodical, the Adventist Review, is one of the oldest in all of North America. It was founded by James and Ellen White–two of the founders of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, in 1849. Since then, the Review has featured Adventist doctrinal teaching, news, devotions, mission stories, current issues, and more. Today the Adventist Review boasts a 30,000 global circulation.
