Georges Whitefield was a major influence during the Revolutionary period so I wanted to read some of his works. The thing that impressed me is that good Biblically based sermons are timeless. Whitefield's sermons are as relevant today as they were then because that is the nature of God's word. Whitefield's sermons are deep and scholarly. It is good to know America's Founding Fathers were influenced by such solid Biblical instruction. Pastors during the Founding years wrote down lengthy sermons for the benefit of their congregations and future generations. Their sermons were more then the single point diminutive sermons people get today. The were full of meaning and Biblical principles. Whitefield must have been up day and night painstakingly preparing weekly sermons. How much time do pastors take today to study to show they are approved with Biblical sermons prepared with great care and research, to make sure the flock is getting the meat of the Word instead of the milk? We can learn from the things that were done right in History and George Whitefield is a good role model for pastors. This is a good book for all to read, for your kids to read and a keepsake for future generations to read because the content is rich and never gets old.
