Meet the first "modern" evangelist. When George Whitefield preached about Calvary, his audience saw the blood. When he spoke of Christ's crucifixion, his listeners felt the nails. Between 1736 and 1770, George Whitefield preached more than eighteen thousand sermons to crowds in Great Britain, Northern Europe, and the American colonies. As many as eighty percent of those living in the New World heard him speak at least once. In all, his audiences numbered in the millions, and millions more were exposed to his words through newspapers, magazines, and printed versions of his sermons, journals, and letters. George Whitefield revolutionized preaching and introduced a totally new approach to evangelism. His ministry was not tied to any particular denomination, and he used the popular media to publicize his meetings. With his passion to reach individuals for Christ, he changed the lives of millions. His methods became the foundation for modern evangelism and continue to affect lives today. - Back cover.
