The Movie “Tell the World” Inspired by true events, Tell The World presents the fascinating story of a small group of farmers in the northeastern United States. These pioneers laid the foundation for an organization that played a leading role in health, education, communication, and biblical interpretation. The film begins with a startling discovery: After years of study, William Miller (Bill Lake), a farmer and former militiaman, came to the conclusion that Jesus would return in 1843. Backed by biblical and historical evidence, his sermons were so convincing that thousands sold everything they owned, confessed their sins, and waited with hearts filled with hope for that glorious event. Eventually, the calculations arrived at a specific date: October 22, 1844. On that day, Jesus, sadly, did not return. In addition to William Miller and his wife Lucy (Kate Hurman), a handful of believers remained faithful to God, including Ellen Harmon (Tommie Amber-Pirie), James White (Stephen MacDonald), and Joseph Bates (Timothy Paul Coderre). Produced by the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Australia, this film presents vivid details of the joys and sufferings of Ellen G. White. According to the Smithsonian Institution, the writer is one of the 100 most influential people in American history. Her exhortations and counsel from Bible study, as well as her dreams and visions from God, guided the church and helped it become a global movement of compassion in health, education, community development, and humanitarian aid. Present in more than 200 countries, the Adventist Church has approximately 19.5 million members. It runs thousands of educational and health institutions, food industries, and a global humanitarian agency. It also establishes a new church every three minutes. Written by H.G. Sloan and Aaron Harzler, and directed by Kyle Portbury, with consultants Allan Lindsay, George Knight, and James Nix, this film is the largest production ever made on the history of Adventism. It shows the difficult beginnings of the church. The pioneers overcame uncertainty, doubt, death, and poverty. As you watch Tell The World, you will likely relate your own experience to it, and find that the disappointment and success of the movement were the key to its physical, mental, and spiritual success. Tell The World sets out to show that the very message that disappointed thousands is now bringing hope to millions—Jesus is coming soon!
