    Books On Christian Education

    To speak of a systematic school program indebted heavily to the writings of Mrs. White is to invite the thought at once that this writer was called in girlhood with only the most meager education in the common branches. How, then, could she contribute greatly to a complete system of education?SPIAM 78.2

    Yet in the list of books we have given in connection with the photograph reproduced on page 34, there are four sizable volumes dealing with Christian education: “Education,” “Christian Education,” “Fundamentals of Christian Education,” “Counsels to Teachers.”SPIAM 78.3

    In one of the large cities of a British oversea commonwealth is a teachers’ college, a normal school for the training of teachers. The president of that college said to one of our workers some years ago: “To every teacher who graduates from this school I present a copy of the best book on education in the English language. It is a book entitled, ‘Education,’ by Mrs. E. G. White.”SPIAM 78.4

    How could this writer, who had not the privilege of a college education, produce a book of which the head of a teachers’ training institution could so speak? The writer herself repeatedly explained it: “Of myself I could not have brought out the truths in these books; but the Lord has given me the help of His Holy Spirit.”SPIAM 79.1

    Because instruction on educational principles, especially adapted to the needs of this advent movement, were required for the good of the youth, the Spirit of prophecy brought forth the counsels.SPIAM 79.2
