The works of the Reverend George Whitefield, Vol. 2 (of 6)

A sweeping anthology of one of the most influential voices of the 18th‑century evangelical movement, this volume gathers the Reverend’s powerful sermons, his compelling tracts, and a selection of intimate letters written between 1734 and 1770. Readers will hear the fervent rhythm of his preaching, the vivid imagery of “gospel arrows,” and his earnest appeals to fellow ministers and laypeople alike, all rendered with careful modern transcription that preserves the original spellings and punctuation.

Beyond the public discourses, the book opens a window onto his private world through correspondence with friends, patrons, and fellow clergy across Britain and the American colonies. These letters reveal his relentless zeal, his concerns for orphanages, and his reflections on spiritual warfare, offering a personal glimpse of the man behind the pulpit. The accompanying biographical sketch, drawn from his own papers, situates his ministry within the wider religious revival of the era, making this collection a rich resource for listeners interested in the history of preaching, early trans‑Atlantic Christianity, and the enduring power of heartfelt conviction.
