Seeking a Sanctuary: Seventh-day Adventism and the American Dream is a book about the Seventh-day Adventist Church coauthored by Malcolm Bull and Keith Lockhart.

Overview

Lockhart was born into an Adventist family, became a member of the church through baptism, and studied theology at Newbold College (where he later taught) and religion at Andrews University. Bull was also born into an Adventist family and spent one year at Newbold College, but never officially joined the church.
