Seventh-day Adventist Small Video

I need a concise, 6–7-minute slide presentation (at least ten content slides plus a properly formatted Works Cited slide) that explains the historical origins of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, profiles its founders, and gives sustained attention to its core beliefs and day-to-day practices. Place special emphasis on what sets Sabbatarian worship, dietary guidelines, and the denomination’s distinctive health-and-wellness ethos at the heart of Adventist identity, yet weave these practices into a wider discussion of doctrine rather than treating them as isolated curiosities.

Your analysis should move beyond chronology. Show how nineteenth-century American social, political, and cultural dynamics—westward expansion, reform movements, post-Millerite revivalism, and emerging public-health theories—shaped the church’s development. Use worldview categories often employed in the study of new religions (apocalyptic, restorationist, revivalist, reformist) as interpretive lenses for specific Adventist behaviors, teachings, and institutional choices.

Because comparison illuminates distinctiveness, devote a section of the deck to lining Adventist doctrines and rituals up against at least two other Christian traditions (your choice), calling out both convergences and divergences in a way that is immediately clear to a general audience yet academically sound.

Deliverables
• A PowerPoint or Google Slides file (minimum 11 slides: 10 content + 1 Works Cited).
• Speaker-notes or a brief written script timed for 6–7 minutes.
• Citations from peer-reviewed scholarship and primary sources (general church publications, Ellen G. White writings, denominational statements). All sources must be listed on the final slide in a consistent academic style (Chicago or MLA accepted).

Acceptance criteria
• Accurate historical narrative, free of unsubstantiated claims.
• Clear focus on core beliefs and lived practices, with Sabbath, diet, and health initiatives thoroughly integrated.
• Explicit use of the four worldview categories in the analytical sections.
• At least two comparative touchpoints with other Christian denominations, highlighting both similarity and difference.
• Finished deck runs within the 6–7-minute window when read with average pacing.

When you submit your bid, please attach or link to past presentation work that shows your ability to combine rigorous scholarship with engaging design.
