This paper is a reduced version of “Comparing the Geographic Distributions and Growth of Mormons, Adventists and Witnesses.” (Co-authored with Ryan T. Cragun), that was published in The Journal for the Scientific Study of Religion, 2012, 51(2) 220-240. It was edited by my friend Dr Fritz Guy and published in Spectrum Magazine in 2013 so that more Adventists would have access to it.

Retired professor of history and sociology who has spent 30 years studying especially the changes in the Seventh-day Adventist Church as a result of it becoming global, with a clear majority of its members from the Developing world. I visited 60 countries for interviews in the process. I here make available to non-sociologists the papers I have published and presented at academic meetings on Adventism and also comparing Adventism's growth and spread with that of two other groups born in the US in the same century--Mormons (Latter-day Saints) and Jehovah's Witnesses.
