George Whitefield was the leading evangelical clergyman of the
eighteenth century and one of the driving forces, humanly speaking,
of revivals on both sides of the Atlantic. Yet until now, his
sermons have been left as an untapped resource for today's
church.
Editor Lee Gatiss has thus reproduced 57 sermons that were
originally authorized to be published by Whitefield himself in the
late 1700s, in addition to two sermons edited by Gillies for
Whitefield's Works, and two more that are of great importance.
Gatiss includes careful and extensive footnotes detailing the
historical and theological background to Whitefield's preaching,
which puts the man and his messages into context for a new
generation of readers. The text has also been updated for the
twenty-first century with modern grammar, spelling, and
punctuation--revised in a manner that leaves Whitefield's distinct
voice intact and coherent for today's reader.
Finally, the powerful and passionate preaching that set the
world on fire in the Great Awakening is available to all in this
two-volume set.
