What Is This Course All About?
Prerequisites: History of the Seventh-day Adventist Church
This course provides an overview of the gift of prophecy from Ellen G. White. Seventh-
day Adventists believe that the gift of prophecy is a gift delivered by the Holy Spirit to persons
called by God to be prophets. The course on the gift of prophecy addresses research to recognize
the prophetic ministry of Ellen G. White. It includes the following aspects: birth and conversion
of Ellen G. White, her prophetic ministry since 1844 to 1881, prophetic ministry from 1882 until
1915 and her bequest (Douglass, 2009; Fortin & Moon, 2013).
Learning Outcomes (LOs)
Upon successful completion of the course, you will have the following skills:
1. Assess revelation and inspiration concepts in the Bible and Ellen G. White writings

Teaching Philosophy
My role as an educator is defined by the Word of God from a
theistic perspective, I hope to be a collaborator of Christ
(White, 1940) in the plan of redemption through
compassionate and integral teaching – physical, mental and
spiritual (White & White, 2000). Therefore, it is a great
privilege for me to assist you on have you to assist you on your
learning journey. I share with you this enthusiasm to keep learning and to challenge each other
not to stop continuous learning (Harrington & Thomas, 2018). I worked hard to design this
teaching-learning environment based on trust and good professor-student and peer relationships.
What I expect of you is that you accept the invitation to have a critical thinking mindset and
evaluate each resource that I have prepared for you (Discovery & Films Media, 2016). The
learning activities are designed for you to acquire the learning outcomes of this course. Also, I
hope that my students will become self-directed and have the curiosity to learn, evaluate and
explore knowledge (Harrington & Thomas, 2018). At the beginning of the course I will explain
what I expect from you as my student and in the same way I would like to know what you expect
from me as your professor. I hope to cover your questions through your active participation in
the class, contributing and exploring beyond what is presented (Wlodkowski & Ginsberg, 2017).
Likewise, I assume my commitment to continuous improvement and finally I would like to assist
you during my office hours (Garcia, 2020b).
Some information about me
I obtained my Bachelor's Degree in Religion and Public Health and my Master's Degree
in Sacred Scripture from Universidad Peruana Unión, and I am currently studying my PhD in
5
Religious Education at Andrews University. I have worked as a district pastor for six years in
Lima and Chimbote, Peru. Then I began to work as a teacher at the Faculty of Theology at the
Universidad Peruana Unión since 2014. Currently I am the director of the Adventist Research
Center and the Center for Resources for Learning and Research in the same institution. I have
been co-editor of two books; El Señorio de Cristo y la Mayordomia Cristiana: Aspectos, bíblicos,
teológicos y prácticos (2016) and La Reforma Protestante: Estudios históricos y teológicos
(2017). I am married and have two beautiful young daughters. This personal and professional
information shows my preparation.
What Can I Expect to Happen During Class?
For the learning to be meaningful, you will need to participate actively in each session of
the course so that it is better used. All teaching-learning resources are available to you, but they
will be more meaningful if you commit and get involved with the development of this content.
The individual and group effort (cooperative groups) and the accompaniment of my person,
focused on critical reasoning will make the difference!

An Approach to Study/Learn About the Gift of Prophecy
Is studying Ellen G. White's prophetic gift still relevant? Ted N.C. Wilson President of
the General Conference of SDA said in his sermon at the Gift of Prophecy Symposium, October
17, 2015, entitled “‘Believe His Prophets’ - Why I Accept Ellen G. White’s Prophetic Ministry”
explained,
The Spirit of Prophecy is as relevant today as it was when it was written. It is accurate,
uplifting, instructive, and powerful as it points to Christ and to the Holy Bible. It is truly
testimony of Jesus, and that’s why I believe in the prophetic ministry of Ellen G. White.
The Spirit of Prophecy is portrayed in Revelation 12:17 as one of the two characteristics
of God´s last-day, remnant church. That verses says, ‘And the dragon [Satan] was
enraged with the woman [God’s church], and he went to make war with the rest [or
remnant] of her offspring [or seed – God’s last-day people and church], who keep the
commandments of God and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.’ (Timm & Esmond, 2015,
p. 148).
This sermon introduces the basic and fundamental characteristics that all Adventists
should know. Here is a list of the importance of understanding the gift of prophecy.
1. Recognizing its value.
2. Accepting their prophetic gift as a characteristic of the remnant people.
3. Accepting the gift of prophecy in light of the Bible.
4. Recognizing that God used her to return to the Bible.
5. Accepting that God graciously used her to bring us a message of preparation for his
second coming.

Important Policy Information
Universidad Peruana Unión warmly welcomes all its students. To preserve harmony and
good manners, all students must sign a Pledge of Honor, this pledge is and other regulations are
available at https://www.upeu.edu.pe/archivos/reglamento_estudiante_unionista.pdf (Garcia,
2020c).
Participation Policy
It is expected that you can participate actively in all classes and in each teaching-learning
activity that this institution offers you. In order to achieve this objective, you must come to the
classes prepared, taking into account the requirements for each class session, such as readings,
assignments, among others. The Schedule-class will allow you to anticipate the activities that
will be carried out in each session (Harrington & Thomas, 2018). If for any reason you miss a
class or do not participate actively it will negatively affect your ability to learn the content.
Academic Integrity Policy: All Students Are Expected to Engage in Academically Honest
Work
One of the most important aspects for this academic environment is honesty in all
aspects. This allows us to ensure that you achieve your goals, and helps us to ensure that the
entire teaching-learning process is well designed. But if any student decides to be dishonest this
will negatively affect their professional training and their influence will affect all the other
students in the faculty. Thus, any dishonest advantage that students make individually or in a
group in any of the teaching-learning activities will affect the disapproval of the assignment and
or the course according to the policies that appear in the Honor Pledge.
https://www.upeu.edu.pe/archivos/reglamento_estudiante_unionista.pdf
9
Late Work/Missed Exam Policy: All Students Are Expected to Complete Learning Tasks
on Schedule
It is important for all of you that you keep up with all of your assignments, it is the best
way not to stress, and in the end not feel overwhelmed trying to fulfill all the requirements at the
same time. A good suggestion would be to complete all assignments and activities is by
organizing each week. But, if something eventual happens that goes beyond what you have
planned, report to me immediately so I can know how to support or advise you. Obviously, if
you do not tell me what may be happening with you and you miss the delivery of a task, I will
understand that it was negligence. In addition, if there is any eventuality in the fulfillment of the
assignments, there is flexibility in the delivery of them, but it is important that you let me know
in advance. (Harrington & Thomas, 2018).
Registrar Withdrawal Information
It is also good to mention that if for any reason (personal or academic) you have the need
to withdraw from this course, please contact us immediately. But keep in mind that there is a
deadline to make your withdrawal. If you want more information about the temporary or
permanent withdrawal of your career, you can do it through this link (Garcia, 2020a).

Assignment Details and Grading Rubrics
Reading Assignments
Learning about the prophetic gift from Ellen G. White is so important to those who want
to be ministers or educators, because it is a hallmark of our identity as Adventists. In this class
we will learn together about its origin, its function and its message. Through reading assignments
you will be able to better assess Ellen G. White's influence on the institutional development of
the SDA. In addition, your skills in the knowledge and understanding of the prophetic gift will
help you considerably to answer the greatest accusations that Adventism has received since its
origin. For those who wish they can also inform the recommended text (Schwarz et al., 2000) for
extra credit. For that you should consider the template in appendix A, and also consider the
rubric in appendix B.
Short Quizzes
One of the best strategies to learn is through feedback, quizzes provide basic feedback
questions, which is considered a good way to learn (Harrington and Thomas, 2018). But, to make
this experience more enriching, some quizzes will be prepared by the groups that have to expose.
The grade for the lowest quiz will be voided, and each quiz can be taken twice. The highest quiz
grade will be considered. This will give you the opportunity and confidence to improve your
learning and your grades (Harrington & Thomas, 2018).
Conceptual Map
Concept maps offer a valuable resource for learning because they allow you to relate
ideas and make connections between concepts. This process is very useful for those who like to
learn by making relationships and connections that otherwise could not be done (Harrington &
Thomas, 2018). To build your conceptual map consider the following rubric of the appendix C.
17
Exams
You will have to take two exams, the midterm and final exam. Both exams have three
parts. The first corresponds to selecting an option of four, these questions are based to evaluate
the key concepts that you should know. The second section corresponds to explaining short
definitions that were studied in classes and in the readings assignments, this will help you to
better reinforce your critical reasoning. And finally, you will receive a Case Studies question in
which you will demonstrate everything you have learned in class. These tests are called
summative assessments because they show us everything you've learned so far. To demonstrate
your learning, the resolution of both exams will be without the use of your notes.
Expositions
Group presentations are a good way for me to know your progress in learning this course.
Peer support is important to develop confidence in the presentation (Harrington & Thomas,
2018). To have the highest score you must take into account the following rubric in appendix D.
Self-reflections
This teaching method is meaningful to you because it will allow you to recognize the
progress you are making, and simultaneously internalize your learning. To successfully complete
this task, you must answer three questions with critical reasoning, the answers must not exceed
40 words for each question. The template provides for this assignment is in appendix E, it should
be used as a guide, and also consider the check-list in appendix F.
Literature Review
A good strategy to learn this and other topics is through peer discussion. As you may
have noticed, in this course group discussions have been scheduled almost in all class sessions.
Also, each student has a different way of learning and approaching content. To make the
18
discussion more meaningful for everyone, it is important to read and review resources that allow
you to increase your mastery of the topic. To complete this task, you must present on a sheet (s)
all the chapters / articles / books that you have reviewed in this course, at least seven references,
the assigned readings for each week are not considered. For each bibliographic reference it is
necessary to attach a brief description of the content of the chapter / article / book highlighting its
importance (Harrington & Thomas, 2018). The template provides for this assignment is in
appendix G and the rubric is in appendix H.
Research Article
This learning method will allow you to specialize in one of the topics given by the
teacher. It requires you to work making solid arguments with the support of sources to justify
your ideas. This academic exercise will allow you to prepare for future academic work such as
your thesis. Your paper should have between 7000 to 7500 words, it does not include footnotes
and the bibliography (it must use 10 quality sources). Also, the format is Turabian, double space,
and Times New Roman 12-point font. Consider the rubric in appendix I.
