5.0 out of 5 stars Heart Revived, 31 Aug 2005
By G. J. Weeks (London) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This is the most heart warming book I have read in some time. It is an academic history of the age of Edwards, Whitefield and the Wesleys, 1730s - 1790s, but it is not a book that is written from the naturalists chair. Noll believes the Holy Spirit was at work in this great period of revival in the English speaking world. Here is its history brought to life, Whitfied in his early twenties preaching New Birth to thousands, even tens of thousands at a time in Boston and Cambuslang. It is an English speaking world story except that it starts with the influence of the Moravians, continental pietists who wre at the time without equal in their missionary endeavours, especially among black slaves in the Americas.
Noll gives us the historic context but not as much of the social setting as one finds in "England before and after Wesley". I would have liked to have known more about evangelicals and the American War of Independence.
Evangelicals are defined in short as those who were more concerned to preach the gospel of grace, to see new birth than to see conformity to established church structures. They were concerned for the social implications of the gospel but it was not their primary focus. That was on people being brought to new life in Christ through the gospel.
Strengths and weaknesses of the major figures are given though I woud have like to have seen mention of Wesley being the first evangelical Arminian in the English speaking world. One learns more of his theological inconsistencies form Roy Hattersley.
