Description: George Whitefield by Thomas S. Kidd Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description An engaging, balanced, and penetrating narrative biography of the charismatic eighteenth-century American evangelist Publisher Description Winner of Christianity Todays 2016 Book Award for History/Biography: an engaging, balanced, and penetrating narrative biography of the charismatic eighteenth-century American evangelist George Whitefield"The most authoritative yet readable book on the eighteenth centurys greatest preacher."—Marvin Olasky, World Magazine"Kidds theologically sympathetic approach gives the book a depth that a more detached treatment might not: He misses none of the biblical allusions that peppered Whitefields utterances, and he is an excellent guide through the tangled doctrinal controversies that dogged Whitefields career."—Barton Swaim, Wall Street Journal In the years prior to the American Revolution, George Whitefield was the most famous man in the colonies. Thomas Kidds fascinating biography explores the extraordinary career of the most influential figure in the first generation of Anglo-American evangelical Christianity, examining his sometimes troubling stands on the pressing issues of the day, both secular and spiritual, and his relationships with such famous contemporaries as Benjamin Franklin, Jonathan Edwards, and John Wesley. Based on the authors comprehensive studies of Whitefields original sermons, journals, and letters, this excellent history chronicles the phenomenal rise of the trailblazer of the Great Awakening. Whitefields leadership role among the new evangelicals of the eighteenth century and his many religious disputes are meticulously covered, as are his major legacies and the permanent marks he left on evangelical Christian faith. It is arguably the most balanced biography to date of a controversial religious leader who, though relatively unknown three hundred years after his birth, was a true giant in his day and remains an important figure in Americas history. Author Biography Thomas S. Kidd is distinguished professor of history at Baylor University. He lives in Waco, TX.
