Overview

In this volume, modern Christians will learn of God’s numerous accomplishments through George Whitefield, virtually unparalleled to this day. In an era when many ministers were timid and apologetic in their preaching, he preached the gospel with zeal and undaunted courage. In the wake of his fearless preaching, revival swept across the British Isles, and the Great Awakening transformed the American colonies. The previous two-volume work George Whitefield: The Life and Times of the Great Evangelist of the Eighteenth-Century Revival is now condensed into this single volume, filled with primary-source quotations from the eighteenth century, not only from Whitefield but also from prominent figures such as John and Charles Wesley, Benjamin Franklin, and William Cowper. The powerful lessons from the life of this saint will enrich personal devotion and embolden individuals to do greater things for God.
