Welcome to our season finale of "What's an Adventist?"
 |
| William Miller, Adventist Pioneer |
Although the roots of Adventism go way back to the time of the apostles, it really became a movement in America during the 19th century in large part due to the work of a man by the name of William Miller. Persuaded by his studies of the Bible, Miller was convinced that Jesus would return within his lifetime. But when Jesus didn’t return, Miller along with many Advent believers, were ridiculed and mocked for their faith. To this day there remain some questions as to what kind of man and preacher William Miller was. Some think he was a fanatical “monomaniac” while others believe he was a sincere man who made great sacrifices for his faith.
This week Jesse Sias and Samuel Ikonne highlight some of the things people may not know about William Miller and how he became a pioneer of the Advent movement in America.
