Jonathan Edwards is a towering figure in evangelical theology. Nearly 250 years after his death, he continues to be a rich source of inspiration to those who read him.
So Josh Moody has done us a great service in writing us an introduction to Jonathan Edwards’s thought. He briefly covers Edwards’s views on revival, Christian experience (including some of the more extraordinary phenomena which Edwards witnessed, and which are witnessed today in some circles), the nature of truth, Christian leadership and even family life. At every point Moody tries to show us how relevant Edwards is to today’s world.
