Spiritual Advancement the Object of Camp-Meetings

Spiritual Advancement the Object of Camp-Meetings addresses the true purpose of annual camp meeting gatherings. This pamphlet emphasizes that camp meetings exist primarily for spiritual revival, deeper consecration, and missionary training rather than mere social gathering or vacation. White typically outlined proper camp meeting elements: earnest prayer and Bible study, conviction and conversion, overcoming besetting sins, receiving fresh vision for mission work, and practical instruction for soul-winning. The pamphlet warned against: treating camp meetings as entertainment, focusing on social aspects over spiritual, failing to prepare hearts beforehand, and returning home unchanged. White emphasized that properly conducted camp meetings provide yearly spiritual renewal, equipping believers for another year's service. The counsel ensures camp meetings fulfill their divinely intended purpose.
