The September 2025 Pacific Union Recorder is a rich and engaging issue that blends Adventist history with timely spiritual reflection. It opens with a moving visit to Ellen White’s Elmshaven home, reminding readers of the enduring gift of her writings and faith. The theme of leadership and renewal shines through in Carlos Camacho’s call to invest in young leaders, inspired by the General Conference Session in St. Louis. Bradford Newton reflects on “Seasons of Faith” with Sister White, encouraging a thoughtful engagement with her legacy in today’s cultural context. Historical features on Braulio Pérez Marcio, pioneer of the Spanish Voice of Prophecy, and Hiram Edson’s “cornfield experience” connect readers to Adventism’s roots.
Practical and pastoral essays round out the issue, with Alberto Valenzuela reflecting on reconciliation in strained relationships, and Mila León drawing lessons from Joseph’s story as a model for conflict resolution. Devotional pieces like “Rags to Riches” highlight generosity and faith
