Dustin Benge begins by presenting the events of Brainerd's short life and the intense personal spiritual piety that undergirded his pioneering missionary work. Then, in fifty-one excerpts drawn from Brainerd's journal, readers will discover his evangelical humiliation, his understanding that God had altered his sinful human nature, his sensitivity to sin, and his holiness of life. Read this book and come to view Brainerd as Jonathan Edwards, his biographer, did: as \"a remarkable instance of true and eminent Christian piety in heart and practice.\" \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Section One: Hungering and Thirsting after Righteousness\u003cbr\u003e Section Two: May I Daily Be More and More Conformed to Thee\u003cbr\u003e Section Three: I Must Be Dependent on God\u003cbr\u003e Section Four: Distressed for the Interest of Zion\u003cbr\u003e Section Five: The Important Trust Committed to Me\u003cbr\u003e Section Six: Much Assisted in Preaching\u003cbr\u003e Section Seven: God Has Inclined Their Hearts to Hear\u003cbr\u003e Section Eight: That God Might Be Glorified \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeries Description \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cp\u003e Seeking, then, both to honor the past and yet not idolize it, we are issuing these books in the series \u003ci\u003e Profiles in Reformed Spirituality\u003c\/i\u003e. The design is to introduce the spirituality and piety of the \u003ci\u003e Reformed Profiles in Reformed Spirituality\u003c\/i\u003e tradition by presenting descriptions of the lives of notable Christians with select passages from their works.
