Reading Lewis and Edwards

February 15, 2016 by Brian

Lewis, C. S. The Horse and His Boy.

Lewis works on many different levels. On the one hand, this is simply a fun adventure story. On another it thoughtfully examines topics such as pride, providence, and even liberal approaches to Christianity.

Edwards, Jonathan. “An Account of the Revival of Religion in Northampton in 1740-1742, as Communicated in a Letter to a Minister of Boston.” In Jonathan Edwards on Revival. Carlisle, PA: Banner of Truth, 1965.

In this letter Jonathan Edwards recounts the revival in Northampton. He is careful to distinguish what he believes to be the true work of the Spirit of God with lasting Spiritual effects and what he takes to be less pure manifestations that are primarily “visible commotion” rather than a true work of God.
