About this listen
Jonathan Edwards is a towering figure in American history. A controversial theologian and the author of the famous sermon Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God, he ignited the momentous Great Awakening of the 18th century.
In this definitive and long-awaited biography, Jonathan Edwards emerges as both a great American and a brilliant Christian. George Marsden evokes the world of colonial New England in which Edwards was reared - a frontier civilization at the center of a conflict between Native Americans, French Catholics, and English Protestants. Drawing on newly available sources, Marsden demonstrates how these cultural and religious battles shaped Edwards' life and thought. Marsden reveals Edwards as a complex thinker and human being who struggled to reconcile his Puritan heritage with the secular, modern world emerging out of the Enlightenment. In this, Edwards' life anticipated the deep contradictions of our American culture.
Meticulously researched and beautifully composed, this biography offers a compelling portrait of an eminent American.

Modern culture is increasingly outspoken against a biblical understanding of what it means to be a woman.

In light of these pressures, it’s more important than ever to help women see the truth about who God created them to be. In this powerful book, Rosaria Butterfield uses Scripture to confront 5 common lies about sexuality, faith, feminism, gender roles, and modesty often promoted in our secular culture today.

In this comprehensive exposition, a leading New Testament scholar explores the unfolding theological unity of the entire Bible from the vantage point of the New Testament. G. K. Beale, coeditor of the award-winning Commentary on the New Testament Use of the Old Testament, examines how the New Testament storyline relates to and develops the Old Testament storyline. Beale argues that every major concept of the New Testament is a development of a concept from the Old and is to be understood as a facet of the inauguration of the latter-day new creation and kingdom.

Jonathan Edwards was a Protestant theologian and a leading revivalist preacher during the Great Awakening. Edwards wrote Freedom of the Will in the 18th century while working as a missionary to a tribe of Housatonic Native Americans in Massachusetts. He carefully drew out the differences of thought between the Calvinist and Arminian theologies and sided with the Calvinist views on humanity's will.

Story
Jonathan Edwards is widely hailed as the greatest theologian in American history. In Edwards on the Christian Life, Dane Ortlund invites us to explore the great eighteenth-century pastor’s central passion: God’s resplendent beauty. Whether the topic was the nature of love, the preeminence of Scripture, or the glory of the natural world, the concept of beauty stood at the heart of Edwards’s theology and permeated his portrait of the Christian life.

Story
Martin Luther entered a monastery as a youth and as a man shattered the structure of the medieval church, speaking out against the corrupt religious practices of the time. His demand that the authority for doctrine and practice be scriptures, rather than popes or councils, echoed around the world and ignited the great Reformation. Accused of heresy and threatened with excommunication and death, Luther maintained his bold stand and refused to recant. In his crusade to eliminate religious abuses, he did more than any other man to establish the Protestant faith.

Within five years, he had become the best-known minister in London. Two years later, following the Sepoy Mutiny, he conducted a service of national humiliation in the Crystal Palace that was attended by 24,000 people. But this volume is far from being a record of human fame and success....

Story
First published in 1525, Martin Luther's Bondage of the Will is acknowledged by theologians as one of the great masterpieces of the Reformation. It is Luther response to Desiderius Erasmus' Diatribe on Free Will, written in his direct and unique style, combining deep spirituality with humor. Luther writes powerfully about man's depravity and God's sovereignty. The crucial issue for Luther concerned what ability free will has, and to what degree it is subject to God's sovereignty.

Two hundred and fifty years later, Jonathan Edwards, America’s consummate pastor-theologian, continues to capture the attention of Christians around the world.

It explores Edwards day-to-day life, and his views on beauty, true Christianity, heaven and hell, and the good life.

A Good Overview of a Good Man
This book is a nice overview of Edwards as a man of his times. Well worth the time for listening.
And on audible procedures: I think it really sucks that I can’t just rate by stars, after listening, and that I must write something. Poor way of doing business…

Fantastic biography that puts the man within his world and gives us an understanding of what he believed and taught.
No other biography I have read has better shown the world that the subject is in and how he interacted with it and work to shape it than this one.

Extremely thorough
Well written and informative. It is not for the reader who just wants "adventure". The author goes deep into the times and culture around Edwards and deep into his Theology thus giving a greater sense of this great servant of God. Enjoy.

A Historical and Theological Masterpiece
Marsden displays his ability as a master historian to illuminate the life of Jonathan Edwards in a largely objective manner - noting his wonderful brilliance as well as his pitfalls - in such a way that doesn’t merely regurgitate historical facts but takes you by the hand through 18th century to see Edwards in his proper context. Moreover, Marsden recounts and details the life of Edwards in such a way that allows the reader/listener to be discipled by the life of Edwards rather than merely being acquainted with his theology and biographical details. A must read for any Christian and an intriguing, enlightening read for any non-Christian into the life of one of America’s most impactful thinkers.

Christian piety
This account of Edward‘s life is both encouraging and at times, devastating as he continued his passion for God’s word in the midst of the Armenian controversy sweeping through a nation. This is an account of Edwards Christian piety that people were reluctant to accept. The affections of both Edwards, wife and children and friends is a great evidence of the passion, Jonathan Edwards had for Christian piety.
