JONATHAN EDWARDS CONVERSION & QUOTES: Monday Starter Aug 18, 2025

Jonathan Edwards, in the eyes of many in the Christian faith, remains the greatest theologian America ever produced. Unfortunately, many tie Edwards to a particular sermon he preached in Enfield, CT, in 1741 and to this day label him as a "hellfire and brimstone preacher" only. This is vastly untrue. This episode of 2Days Denarius takes a look at the conversion of Jonathan Edwards in his own words, along with a few quotes to help demonstrate Edwards's ability to preach on or address the full counsel of God in thorough fashion. This episode is gospel oriented and encourages Christians to focus highly on our Lord and Savior daily in their walk of faith. Quote regarding the conversion of Jonathan Edwards comes from the excellent book:"The Essential Jonathan Edwards" by Owen Strachan, Douglas Allen Sweeney & John Piper.
