Jonathan Edwards: America's Genius (Trailblazers)
Jonathan Edwards was just an ordinary American boy but he was different too. The country he lived in wasn't the America of today - but a new world full of adventure and opportunity. Battles and Tomahawks were just some of the thrilling adventures that his family lived through.
But Jonathan also loved the small things in life too. In an age of scientific discovery, Edwards saw God's beauty displayed most perfectly through nature. His journals are filled with drawings of plants, animals, and spiders because he knew that each one of them reflected the creativity of its Creator.
His mind was full of questions and he grappled for the answers. Intellectually there were few to beat him. However it wasn't just his amazing intelligence that set him apart from other boys his age - he may have had a thirst for knowledge but he also had a strong desire for the things of God. His genius and abilities teamed up well with his faith and love for the Lord Jesus Christ.
One day the country that would become the United States of America would look back at this man of brilliance as a founding influence on their land.
This series captures the hearts of men and women who loved God above all else. Each book details the life of a missionary or other worker for God from their childhood all the way through their deaths. Their stories are told in a straightforward yet interesting way, providing readers with inspirational, true stories of men and women who served God. The books are digest-sized and around 150 pages in length (my two sample copies are 141 and 175 pages), divided into fairly short chapters for easy reading. - Melissa
