Summary

This fast-paced, inspirational narrative reveals how God used one man of great courage, discipline, and humility to bring countless souls to Christ.

God’s accomplishments through George Whitefield are to this day virtually unparalleled. In an era when many ministers were timid and apologetic in their preaching, he preached the gospel with aggressive 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 18th century, not only from Whitefield but also from such prominent figures as John and Charles Wesley, Benjamin Franklin, and William Cowper.

A forgotten figure for many

This is a moving account of one of the greatest Christians who have ever lived. The author corrects a number of distortions about Whitefield which have been propagated by some writers about him. Whitefield's single-minded devotion to Christ is vividly portrayed but nowhere more than in the closing chapters. Soli Deo Gloria.

Heartwarming

Encourages me to go and make Christ known to the world! What an awesome God we serve. How little we are on fire like Whitefield.

A man in God's hands!

What an amazing story of a preacher who could present Christ and the message of salvation to the down and outs and also the up and outs. From miners to Dukes all were offered the gospel. Together with struggles and much opposition a faithful portrait is here painted.

A life devoted to the service of the Lord.

The tremendous story of a man, whose life is a testament to what God can do with a humble and faithful servant.

Read engagingly, and with clarity.

A truly remarkable life, well told

The fruitfulness of GW's life is truly inspiring. May we learn to emulate it, if not to the same degree, at least with the same earnestness.

George Whitefield

Where are the 21' century Whitefields? We need them badly.
A blessed story of God's grace. It's all of Jesus and nothing (or no one) else.
