The Youth’s Instructor MP3
Ellen G. White Articles

Downloadable Text-to-Speech Audio Recordings 

“Dear Young Friends:

“You live in a dark and wicked world, subject to sickness, pain and death. You may see many things that look beautiful; but how soon they fade away. You may have a dear friend that you love; but soon that one may be torn from you by sickness and death, and you will then feel lonesome.

“You should have something substantial to fix your minds and affections upon, that can give real satisfaction and joy, and cheer your spirits in this dark world, and cause your sorrows to bring joy in the end. . . .

“The lovely Jesus laid aside His glory, and came into this dark world, and took upon Himself our nature, to be wounded for our transgressions, to be bruised for our iniquities. O, what love for us. He led a self-denying life, and had not where to lay His head. He was a man of sorrow and acquainted with grief, was despised and rejected, and finally was crucified for us.” Ellen G. White, The Youth’s Instructor, August 1852. 

The 477 articles included in the one volume photofacsimile reproduced collection of The Youth’s Instructor Ellen G. White Articles have each been recorded into their individual MP3 file and numbered sequentially as they appear in the printed volume. The recordings were made at 32kbps. There are up to ten recordings per folder and most folders are 10 – 20 MB in size. 

Text-to-Speech technology has progressed tremendously over the last decade. Most individuals will be amazed at how well an electronic reader can communicate verbally. Many hours have been spent “educating” the speech engine used in these recordings to pronounce properly these spiritual messages. Unfortunately, there are a number of words in the English language, which are spelled the same but are pronounced differently and have a different meaning when in a different setting or tense. For example: “I will read the article” and “I have read the article.” Another example: “I live in Boston” and “There are live tigers at the zoo.” It has not been possible to educate the speech engine in these types of instances. But in spite of some drawbacks, the Text-to-Speech technology allows us to provide audio recordings of large numbers of inspired writings in a very profitable listening form and convenient manner.
