Sam Johnson Jr., Great AppGreat App. I give it five stars for everything today contains in the execution which is well done.In terms of improvement, one thing I would love to see is better controls for the audio player. It would be nice to be able to skip backward or forward in 15 seconds or 30 second increments.Another improvement, I would love to be able to listen to the audiobook of Messiah. Then there are a few other books that sound like they are read by a computer generated voice instead of buying a real human being.
If it would be possible to get audio book quality recordings of those books, that would be excellent! 1Paleo, Appreciate access to all the publicationsI’m so happy to have discovered this app with easily transportable publications.One issue I have is with the audio. I like the ability to listen and read at the same time but it could use some improvements. I would like to be able to move forward and back within a chapter without having to start the chapter over again. Also, it would be great to be able to keep my place. If it has been several days since my last session, I can’t always remember what chapter I was listening to. It could use some modernization of narrators and music.
The music and introduction to the chapters sounds like it comes from the 1930s and makes me feel talked down to. No music would be fine and a respectful, conversational tone of voice for the introduction to chapters would help.
The main narrator mispronounces words - such as pronouncing the silent 2nd a in pharaoh as a long a. When it’s a word that is used over and over again, it makes the listener cringe. I’m sure this would be a huge undertaking to make these changes so let me say again, I really do appreciate your making an app with these publications. Lladnekj, Great, but could use a couple improvements.Overall it’s a pretty good App! But after only a few minutes if use I thought of some things that would make it so much better!First, would be continuous scrolling.
I’m sure that this may not suite everyone, but at least having the option to choose between continuous scrolling and page-by-page scrolling would keep everyone happy.Second, would be the ability to speed up the playback of the audio books. The reading is quite slow, which is good for some people, however, I think the reading is slow enough that speeding up to at least 2x speed would would still be easy to keep up with.
If an option to speed up playback were added, having a few different speed options (1.25x, 1.5x, 2x, 2.5x, maybe even 3x for the brave) would be ideal.Third, would be some kind of predictive search function. Kind of like how google will say, “did you mean.” This would be useful for times when you can’t quite remember the exact wording of a quote, but know the general idea. I realize that this idea would likely be quite difficult to implement, but it would be an amazing feature.Maybe some of these options are already somewhere in settings, but I have not been able to find them yet.
So, if they are there, maybe make them easier to find.Thanks for the good work so far! This app definitely beats the old CDs. Having the entire searchable library in my pocket is very handy!
.The Ellen G. White Estate, Incorporated, or simply the ( Ellen) White Estate, is an organization created in 1933 by the five trustees named in 's last will and testament to act as the custodian of her, which consider as divinely inspired. The headquarters is located at the in, where it functions as a quasi-independent department of the denomination. It has an independent and self-perpetuating board, but the organization receives an annual allocation just like other departments of the world headquarters.
The White Estate has branch offices and research centers at around the world with at least one center in each division of the world church.The mission of the White Estate is to circulate Ellen White's writings, translate them, and provide resources for helping to better understand her life and ministry. At the in 2000, the world church expanded the mission of the organization to include a responsibility for promoting for the entire denomination.
After a century since Ellen G. White's death in 1915 the White Estate will publicly release all of her unpublished writings online.
Contents.History Other duties include handling her properties, 'conducting the business thereof,' 'securing the printing of new translations,' and the 'printing of compilations from my manuscripts.' Her will, dated February 9, 1912, named five church administrators to serve as a board of trustees:, Clarence C. Crisler, Charles H. Appointment of the trustees was for life, Ellen White providing that “if a vacancy shall occur for any reason among said trustees, or their successors, a majority of the surviving or remaining trustees are hereby empowered and directed to fill such vacancy by the appointment of some other fit person”; or if this provision were to fail, the General Conference Executive Committee should appoint someone to fill such a vacancy.
The will dedicated the major portion of the existing and potential royalty incomes from her books to the work of the trustees.At the death of Ellen White, July 16, 1915, this self-perpetuating board began to function. It soon sold Ellen White’s real estate, consisting mainly of, her home property near, then began the continued care of her literary properties. Under the terms of the will, such responsibilities fell into three areas:.
possession of the copyrights to her writings and the care and promotion of her books in the English language. preparation of manuscripts for, and the promotion of the translation and publication of her writings in other languages. custody of the files of manuscripts and other files, and the selection of matter from the Ellen G.
White manuscript files for publication.The board now carries a fourth responsibility, which has developed naturally through the years—acquainting and others with Mrs. White and her work.Organization When the board was first organized in 1915, served as president.
The secretaryship, after being held for a short time by C. Crisler, passed to, the only member of the board devoting full-time to the work of the trustees. He filled this office until his death in 1937. From 1915 to 1937 the work was carried on at in a rented office building with a vault that was used to house the E. White materials.During the 19 years they worked together, the original members, in addition to routine tasks, (1) published 10 posthumous compilations; (2) produced an 865-page Comprehensive Index to the Writings of Ellen G. White, published in 1926; (3) carried forward the thorough indexing of the Ellen G. White manuscript files; and (4) in counsel with the leading officers of the General Conference in 1933 and 1934, laid the foundation for continuing the trusteeship in perpetuity.
The steps taken to ensure the perpetuation of the trusteeship were: (a) in 1933 the trustees, as the constituency, formed a corporation under the laws of the state of California “to carry out and perform the provisions of the charitable trust created by the last will and testament of Ellen G. White deceased”; (b) the General Conference agreed to provide adequate financial support for the work of the trustees in the form of an annual budget; the trustees, in turn, assigned to the General Conference all royalty incomes produced by the Ellen G. White books; (c) it was agreed to move the property and work of the trustees at some appropriate future time to Washington, D.C., thus placing it close to the world headquarters of the church.Period of Transition When three of the original trustees died—one in 1935 and two in 1936–the vacancies were filled in harmony with the provisions of the will and the bylaws of the 1933 corporation. The full-time secretary, W. White, died September 1, 1937. He was replaced by his son, who for nine years had served as his secretary and for four years as assistant secretary of the White Estate.

The work of the White Estate was moved to the General Conference, in January, 1938.Present Organization As demands upon them increasing steadily with the growth of the church and numerous constituencies to be represented, in 1950 the trustees increased the board’s membership from five to seven, and in 1958 amended the bylaws of the corporation to provide for a constituency and board of nine, seven to be life members and two to be elected for a term corresponding to that of General Conference elected personnel (originally four years, but now five). In 1970 the board was increased to 11; in 1980, to 13; and, in 1985, to 15.

The number of life members is currently five. At quinquennial meetings the board also elects the secretary and associate secretaries, as well as officers of the corporation, as provided for in the bylaws.Relationship to General Conference. Through the years a close working relationship has obtained between the White trustees and the General Conference. Most of the trustees are members of the General Conference Executive Committee. Various matters, such as promoting the overseas publication of the Ellen G.
White material, appropriation of funds to assist in the foreign language publication of Ellen G. White books, and overall planning of Spirit of Prophecy promotion, including preparation of materials for the annual Spirit of Prophecy Sabbath, although intimately related to the work of the White trustees, are beyond the sphere of their direct responsibility. These are handled by the General Conference Committee through a sub-committee known as the Spirit of Prophecy Committee. This committee includes several of the White trustees.
The duties of this subcommittee and the working relationship between the General Conference Committee and the White Estate are currently set forth in a joint agreement adopted by the General Conference Committee and the White Estate trustees on October 10, 1957. There is an interlocking and at times overlapping of responsibilities; nevertheless, a smooth and efficient working relationship between the two organizations is maintained.Routine Work The paid staff members:. safeguard and maintain the records in the custody of the trustees, and the indexes thereto, in such a manner as to serve the church. handle the copyrights to the Ellen G.
