Seventh-day Adventist Church

Warren Jeff’s manipulation and power usage toward his followers in the FLDS church indicates a complicated group process relating to status. This is not an instance of a crazy leader brainwashing innocent followers; this is an instance of a high-status actor manipulating power over low-status actors all in the guise of religion…

quote taken from one of the founders of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, Ellen G. White. The Seventh-day Adventist Church is a Christian religion that formed after the Great Awakening of 1844. Our roots come from the Millerite movement of the early 1800s.
