I really loved the chance to learn about how God worked during the "Great Awakening" in the 1700s! This book brought me so much closer to the Church because I realized that we are not all that different. God is the same God, no matter how much time has gone by!
I especially loved the conversion stories of Abigail Hutchinson and Phebe Bartlet. It is so cool to see God work!
This was my first Jonathan Edwards read, besides reading "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God" in high school. One book alone was all it took to erase the judgment that he was a harsh man trying to scare everyone out of hell. He showed in this book that he really cares about his people and was so humble in saying that God was using him in spite of him. ( )
