Widely regarded as perhaps America's greatest theologian, Jonathan Edwards still suffers the stereotype of hellfire preacher obsessed with God's wrath. In this anthology, Gerald McDermott and Ronald Story seek to correct that common view by showing that Edwards was also a compassionate, socially conscious minister of the first order.


Commendation Quotes: A judicious and well-timed collection of primary sources, introduced well, which reveals for students, general readers, and interested Christian laity 'the other Jonathan Edwards, ' that is, the one whose life was dedicated to sharing the love of God, preaching social justice prophetically, and promoting peace, harmony, and the welfare of the needy in his own local communities and the eighteenth-century Anglo-American world. Biographical Note: Gerald McDermott is Jordan-Trexler Professor of Religion at Roanoke College and co-author of The Theology of Jonathan Edwards. Ronald Story is professor of history emeritus at the University of Massachusetts Amherst and author of Jonathan Edwards and the Gospel of Love (University of Massachusetts Press, 2012). Marc Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index.
