Born Again Before It Was Popular
from GodNAmerica Hosted by Perry Greene
George Whitefield became one of the most influential voices of the First Great Awakening, carrying the message of Jesus—“Ye must be born again”—throughout Britain and colonial America. After discovering that religious discipline and self-denial could not transform the heart, Whitefield devoted his life to preaching salvation through genuine spiritual rebirth in Christ. His powerful outdoor preaching reached enormous audiences and helped create a shared spiritual consciousness across the colonies before America was politically united. His story reminds us that lasting liberty and virtue cannot be sustained by institutions or outward morality alone; genuine change begins with transformed hearts.
