In Letters from Dr. Percy Magan, author Albert Dittes shares the untold story of early Loma Linda drawn from letters sent between Percy T. Magan and Lida Scott. These letters reflect not only people putting their religious faith on the line and devoting themselves fully to accomplishing the mission of the Seventh-day Adventist Church but also the still-continuing struggle of the church to find the relationship of medical professionals to the evangelical proclamation of the gospel to every nation, kindred, tongue, and people.
