The Seventh-day Adventist Encyclopedia, 2 vols.

The encyclopedia was first published in the 1960s, revised in 1976, and revised again in 1996 when the material expanded so much that it was divided into two volumes. The articles can be divided into six main categories: Church History, Church Organization and Operation, Institutions, Biographies, Beliefs and Practices, and Miscellaneous Topics. Definitions are required to explain various names or phrases of organizations, methods, and activities–such as church school, Ingathering, Bible studies, pathfinder Clubs, and Medical Cadet Corps.
