Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God Jonathan Edwards

About the Author: Jonathan Edwards Became church pastor of one of the largest and wealthiest church congregations after his grandfather died Sermons were filled with “fire and brimstone”- a phrase symbolizing the torments of hell endured by sinners Believed in science and reason and saw the proof of God’s presence in the physical world Became one of the leaders of the Great Awakening (religious revival in the colonies during the 1730s and 1740s)- wanted to bring back the fervent faith of the Puritan past Instituted disciplinary actions against members of his congregation for reading improper books and denounced sinners by name in his sermons (p. 106)
