Whitefield: A Giant Among Leaders



As a student at Oxford University, George Whitefield experienced a spiritual awakening under the influence of John Wesley's Methodists and immediately began tending to prisoners, caring for the poor, and preaching the gospel. He met with astounding success, going on to speak to larger and larger crowds that included some of the largest gatherings in the history of England. He became the most famous preacher of his age.

His impact upon the American colonies, however, may have been his most lasting achievement. His preaching from Georgia to Maine was instrumental in the Great Awakening of the 1700s, and when he learned that England tended to tighten her control over the colonies, Whitefield warned his American friends in sermon after sermon, even accompanying Benjamin Franklin on his travels to make the American case in the Court of St. James.

Forgotten Founding Father is an incisive look at the qualities of leadership that made him such an effective and powerful figure in both England and America and left a legacy that continues to this day.
