What does Ellen White write about...
Adventistische Schriften über: "Does Ellen White speak about the establishment or founding of character schools and about schools as places of character formation?"
Answer
Yes. Ellen White describes both the establishment of schools and character formation as an important purpose of education; she says that the schools founded for this purpose provide favorable conditions for character development and calls character formation the great task of parents and teachers. In the quotes provided, however, she does not explicitly use the term "character schools" as a formal school designation.
Schools and Character Development
»For the schools that were founded in this way, God provided the most favorable conditions for the development of character.«
Character Formation as a Task of Education
»The great task of parents and teachers is character formation – they should strive, in those entrusted to their care, to restore the image of Christ. […] Every true education can contribute to developing a righteous character.«

Why I built EGW Vision
Hello, I am Stephan Krol. I started this Ellen White website to make the writings of Ellen G. White and the Adventist pioneers easier to access for everyone.
EGW Vision helps you find topics, statements, and quotes faster, especially when many original sources are not yet fully available in your language. The tool searches semantically, groups relevant content by topic, and presents matching results as clearly as possible in your language.
My hope is that this tool supports personal Bible study, strengthens trust in the original sources, and helps more people discover the message of these writings with clarity, depth, and joy.
