Jonathan Edwards Lover of God
This volume of the Essential Edwards Collection tells the story of Jonathan's life and the important events that shaped his faith and views on God and salvation. It is a biographical and contextual look at the man credited for starting the First Great Awakening.

Jonathan Edwards on Beauty
This volume focuses on Edwards’ view of God, God's communication of beauty, and God's desire that Christians recognize His beauty both in Scripture and the world. Edwards is presented as a "God-intoxicated" man, captivated by God's glory and beauty, and committed to sharing that beauty with others.

Jonathan Edwards on Heaven and Hell
This volume explains Edwards' strong sense of pastoral responsibility to warn his people of the reality and dangers of judgment and hell. But it also shows his equally vivid and compelling views of heaven and eternal life.

Jonathan Edwards on the Good Life
This volume focuses on how Edwards found joy and fulfillment by encouraging others to know and worship God. For Edwards, the good life was one lived in accordance with God's will, a life of worshipful participation in, and magnification of, God's glory and beauty.

Jonathan Edwards on True Christianity
This volume focuses on Edwards' view of the nature of true religion, true conversion, and supernatural regeneration. Going from the problem of human sin, and the inadequacy of head knowledge, to God using our biblical knowledge to give us new hearts filled with Him, Edwards believed God wants to unite us to Christ by the indwelling presence of His Spirit.

"Reading Edwards can be intimidating. Where does the uninitiated reader even begin? Let Strachan and Sweeney serve as your guides through the voluminous writings of America's greatest theologian."
--Collin Hansen, author of Young, Restless, Reformed
