"Jonathan Edward's & George Whitefield: America's Conversn" - Deuteronomy 32:35; 2 Corinthians 13:5

Feb 18, 2026    Pastor Michael Gabbert

Sydney Ahlstrom refers to the First Great Awakening as “America’s conversion

experience.” This profound revival did more to create a single national identity than any
military or commercial venture ever could. Thirteen separate colonies would unite under the
banner of the United States only after God’s Spirit swept the land and created a bond that had
previously been non-existent. Spiritual awakening produces political unity.
