This witty and illuminating volume introduces the life and
writings of the great American theologian and preacher Jonathan
Edwards (1703-1758). The most widely studied figure in American
religious history and an iconic figure of the American colonial
period, Edwards is well known and highly regarded as a stalwart
defender of Calvinist theology and his Puritan heritage. As James
P. Byrd deftly reveals, however, Edwards was also a brilliant
thinker and passionate pastor who wrestled continuously with the
most important issue of his time: the relationship between faith
and reason.
Written by experts but designed for the novice, the Armchair
series provides accurate, concise, and witty overviews of some of
the most profound moments and theologians in Christian history.
These books are essential supplements for first-time encounters
with primary texts, lucid refreshers for scholars and clergy, and
enjoyable reads for the theologically curious.
