Jonathan Edwards , a Puritan pastor from colonial America, is remembered for his theological works, his support of the Great Awakening, and his fiery enthusiastic sermons. But as Dr. Steven J. Lawson shows in this profile, Edwards's main characteristic was his passion for the glory of God.

That search was guided by seventy resolutions that Edwards set as a young man. In these resolutions, Edwards expressed a steely determination combined with a sincere trust in divine grace to order his life in a way that would be pleasing to God and fruitful in bringing His kingdom on earth closer.

In The Unbreakable Resolve of Jonathan Edwards , Dr. Lawson delves into Edwards' writings to discover the practical ways in which he sought to fulfill his resolutions. He then exhorts Christians today to do the same, living for the glory of God with uncontrollable passion.

recommendations

"Tired of living the Christian life fitfully? Tired of half-hearted pursuits? Then you've come to the right book. Here, Steven Lawson artfully points you to Jonathan Edwards, a model for pursuing holiness, humility, and love , and to abandon sin, all driven by a relentless passion to 'glorify God, and enjoy Him forever' When Edwards wrote his 'Resolutions', he probably had no idea the impact they would have on his life. Be careful, they will do the same to you."

—Dr. Stephen J. Nichols, President, Reformation Bible College

“The growing acceptance of Reformed thought over the last quarter century has been very encouraging to those of us who delight in this most biblical expression of Christianity. And the remarkable writings of Jonathan Edwards have played, by the grace of God, no small part in this expansion of Reformed theology. This new volume by Steve Lawson helps locate the root of Edwards's thinking in his close relationship with God. “It serves as a powerful reminder that Reformed orthodoxy and Reformed piety go together, and that focusing on the former at the expense of the latter is not only un-Edwardian, but also unbiblical.”

—Dr. Michael A.G. Haykin, professor of church history and biblical spirituality, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
