Ellen G. White
Counself to Parents, Teachers, and Students presents instructions specific to Seventh-day Adventists. It is different from the masterpiece on character, Education, in which Ellen White addresses issues intended for a broader, more general reading public. As the subjects develop in this volume, there are clearly set forth the responsibilities and duties to parents, heartening counsel to guide the teachers in the rowk, and practical instruction to those who devote the years of their youth in preparing for a life of service.
At the close of each section, a page under the title “For Further Study” presents references to other Ellen G. White materials containing related instruction.
Hardbound, 575 pages.
