Sarah Edwards

Sarah Edwards (1710-1758): Join us today as we continue the story of Sarah Edwards, wife of the great theologian Jonathan Edwards. As the Great Awakening swept through the American Colonies, Jonathan and Sarah found themselves right in the middle of this great move of God’s Spirit. Later, they took a remarkable step of faith to minister to Native Americans on the frontier. Through it all, Sarah’s spirituality and hospitality enhanced the effectiveness of her husband’s ministry, and her parenting made an indelible impact not only on her eleven children, but on American history! Her legacy alone makes Sarah a remarkable woman worth knowing!

Sarah Edwards, Part 2 

Elizabeth Bunyan (c.1641-1691) &amp; Sarah Edwards (1710-1758): John Bunyan and Jonathan Edwards are two of the most famous and important figures in Church History–one as the author of Pilgrim’s Progress, and the other as America’s first and arguably greatest philosopher and theologian. Yet as with many Christian leaders, they would not have been as influential as they were without their wives! Elizabeth Bunyan’s commitment to the cause of Christ enabled her husband to fulfill his ministry despite frequent imprisonment, and Sarah Edwards’ hospitality and deep spirituality made a profound impact on both her husband and community.
