George Whitefield
Volume 1: Life and Times of the Great Evangelist of the 18th Century Revival
About this book
‘Justice has at last been done to the greatest preacher that England has ever produced.’ — D. M. LLOYD-JONES
‘One of the great monumental literary achievements of the 20th century. George Whitefield has come alive for me as I have been reading the book, a few pages at a time each evening.’ — Dr. SHERWOOD E. WIRT
‘…My heart was tremendously stirred as I read it – more than it has been for many, many years.’ — Dr. OSWALD J. SMITH
Volume 1 brings the story of George Whitefield, and of the evangelical revival, up to the end of the year 1740. In it we are told in vivid detail how a young man of Gloucester – ‘at 16 a tapster, at 26 the most brilliant and popular preacher the modern world has ever known’ – exercised a ministry of the gospel crammed full of arduous labour and crowned with divine blessing.
