Summary
A timeless blueprint for spiritual discipline and intentional living from one of early America’s greatest minds.
Before he became a central figure of the First Great Awakening, a young Jonathan Edwards set down seventy solemn commitments designed to govern his inner life, daily conduct, and devotion to God. Written between 1722 and 1723 while he was not yet twenty years old, these private reflections reveal an extraordinarily disciplined soul relentlessly pursuing moral clarity and spiritual growth. Paired here with his compassionate pastoral counsel in Advice to Young Converts, this volume captures both the fierce resolve and the gentle wisdom of a monumental theologian.
Edwards’ seventy resolutions confront the deepest challenges of Christian life: the stewardly use of time, the mortification of pride, the governance of the tongue, and the pursuit of genuine humility. Far from sterile legalism, each entry is grounded in a constant awareness of eternity and an intense desire to reflect divine grace in every waking moment. His accompanying letter to Deborah Hatheway, a young convert, extends these lofty ideals into accessible, practical guidance for sustaining faith amid the trials of everyday life.
Centuries later, Jonathan Edwards’ Resolutions and Advice to Young Converts remains an indispensable classic of Christian devotion. Whether seeking to revitalize your personal spiritual disciplines, cultivate lasting integrity, or draw insight from a towering figure in American religious history, this enduring text offers an inspiring standard of wholehearted devotion.
