Heroes of the Faith You Should Know Series: Jonathan Edwards

Historic Christianity is blessed and defined by many men and women who have both shaped and directed our understanding of how to live out the Christian faith. They have engaged both mind and soul, intellect and heart, reflection and application. This ongoing series gives attention to a selection of those heroes and in so doing, seeks to help this generation think well about the world around us through the lens of the historic Christian faith. We invite you to come and learn, reflect and live out new understandings of eternal truths passed down from old friends.

Our guest speaker and published author, Dr. Phillip Fisk, will be traveling in from Pennsylvania to share some of his vast knowledge on Jonathan Edwards, and we hope you will join us to learn more about this great leader of the Christian faith.
