Jonathan Edwards stands as a giant in Christian literature and history. Particularly among the Reformed Christian camp, he is mentioned in the same breath as Calvin and Luther. Fortunately, he wrote often, and there are no translation barriers to make his works less accessible in English.

Edwards looks at the 2nd Great Awakening from his perspective in New England. The amazing way the Spirit moved from town to town, from city to city, as an extraordinary work independent on man's revivalism techniques. Edwards shares how people in his town/church repented, turned to Christ, and lived a new life. Some supernatural movements of the Spirit (visions, slaying in the Spirit, etc.) is problematic for the non-Charismatic, but Edwards does not hestitate to record what he saw. One note

This short, but dense, read is a wonderful insight into the events of the great awakenings of Jonathan Edwards' days. Edwards tells the story of several individuals (men and women, young and old) who were "awakened" by the Spirit's moving in their lives. He then explains why and how to evaluate what is a true mark of the Spirit--or what is a real revival. I enjoyed it very much.
