Your Daughters Will Prophesy: Women in the Millerite Movement

Women were active participants in the Millerite Movement, a mid-nineteenth century American revival movement. They not only believed Christ was coming soon, they actively disseminated the good news. And if Christ was coming soon, they needed to work together to improve the lives of those around them. This episode explores the lives of little-known Millerite women who were actively involved in the Millerite, temperance, abolition, and suffrage movements and how these activities intersected. Guest: Dr. Kevin Burton, Director of the Center for Adventist Research.  Explore More Book | Strangers and Pilgrims by Catherine Brekus https://uncpress.org/book/9780807847459/strangers-and-pilgrims/ Book | Sarah Osborn’s World: The Rise of Evangelical Christianity in Early America by Catherine Brekus - https://a.co/d/cyznIlQ  Book | Barbara Kruger “Divine Expectations: An American Woman In Nineteenth-Century Palestine” - https://a.co/d/3sVK2Gv  1843 Fitch Prophecy Chart - https://adventistdigitallibrary.org/islandora/object/adl:421834 This episode mentions Sojourner Truth, William Miller, Clorinda S.
