As Adolf Hitler and the Nazis seduced a nation, bullied a continent, and attempted to exterminate the Jews of Europe, a small number of dissidents and saboteurs worked to dismantle the Third Reich from the inside. One of these was Dietrich Bonhoeffer. In the first major biography of Bonhoeffer in 40 years, New York Times best-selling author Eric Metaxas takes both strands of Bonhoeffer's life - the theologian and the spy - to tell a searing story of incredible moral courage in the face of monstrous evil.

In this comprehensive exposition, a leading New Testament scholar explores the unfolding theological unity of the entire Bible from the vantage point of the New Testament. G. K. Beale, coeditor of the award-winning Commentary on the New Testament Use of the Old Testament, examines how the New Testament storyline relates to and develops the Old Testament storyline. Beale argues that every major concept of the New Testament is a development of a concept from the Old and is to be understood as a facet of the inauguration of the latter-day new creation and kingdom.
By: G. K. Beale
Publisher's summary
Jonathan Edwards is a towering figure in American history. A controversial theologian and the author of the famous sermon Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God, he ignited the momentous Great Awakening of the 18th century.
In this definitive and long-awaited biography, Jonathan Edwards emerges as both a great American and a brilliant Christian. George Marsden evokes the world of colonial New England in which Edwards was reared - a frontier civilization at the center of a conflict between Native Americans, French Catholics, and English Protestants. Drawing on newly available sources, Marsden demonstrates how these cultural and religious battles shaped Edwards' life and thought. Marsden reveals Edwards as a complex thinker and human being who struggled to reconcile his Puritan heritage with the secular, modern world emerging out of the Enlightenment. In this, Edwards' life anticipated the deep contradictions of our American culture.
Meticulously researched and beautifully composed, this biography offers a compelling portrait of an eminent American.

What a gift
This was the first biography that I have read/listened to and it was captivating. I had long stayed away from biographies for fear of boredom but picked up this one at the recommendation of The Gospel Coalition and a desire broaden my reading intake. What a gift that it was. Marsden does a masterful job painting a picture of Edwards as a brilliant man after God’s own heart. His description of the ups and downs of Edward’s life gave me a deeper understanding and appreciation of one who’s theology has shaped my own and so many today that I respect so much. I often came away from listening to a chapter feeling as though I was being discipled by Edwards himself. It is long but it is worth it. Though excited for other books, I am honestly sad that I finished it. I highly recommend it.

A Historical and Theological Masterpiece
Marsden displays his ability as a master historian to illuminate the life of Jonathan Edwards in a largely objective manner - noting his wonderful brilliance as well as his pitfalls - in such a way that doesn’t merely regurgitate historical facts but takes you by the hand through 18th century to see Edwards in his proper context. Moreover, Marsden recounts and details the life of Edwards in such a way that allows the reader/listener to be discipled by the life of Edwards rather than merely being acquainted with his theology and biographical details. A must read for any Christian and an intriguing, enlightening read for any non-Christian into the life of one of America’s most impactful thinkers.

Very well researched. Some detail I was not familiar with concerning his time at Stockbridge. I see Edward's as a Christian luminary in line with the likes of Augustine and Luther. His faith and life are inspiring and encouraging. The sense of kinship in Christ is real.

Hats off to Marsden
Johnathan Edwards is a very complicated figure who is difficult to understand from a modern point of view. Three things are said of him: 1) He studied the Bible for 13 hours a day; 2) He and his wife Sarah had 11 children; 3) The Edwards had a happy marriage.
I suppose that most married couples would suspect that if you hole yourself in your study for 13 hours a day and leave your wife to attend 11 children, then the marriage could not have been happy. But, oh wait, they owned slaves. Then yes, if you put the household chores and child raising work on the backs of your slaves, then, yes, I can see how they might have been happy.
That Edwards was a proud man who spent an inordinate time looking at whether other people were "converted" - and tellingly, less time looking at himself and his walk with Jesus - will be difficult for most to understand.
Two final observations:
First, this audiobook is not for the faint of heart. At 25 hours, it is very long. Marsden asks that we not pass judgment on Edwards because he was a product of his times. So, for example, when Edwards reserves the best seats in his church for the social elite - as if Jesus plays favorites and has a caste system for believers - we are not to judge this or other aspects like Edwards's personal ownership of slaves. Nor are we to judge the contradictions, such as his being against the transatlantic slave trade but owning slaves himself - and this, despite the fact that Christians are a called-out people who do not live in conformity with the world.
Second, Edwards's Calvinistic views on theistic determinism - which is a biblical interpretation that the status quo justifies itself because God micromanages every aspect of the world - probably explains Edwards better than anything else. For if blacks are slaves, for example, then God has predestined this state of affairs and accordingly, it is His will that they should be such and we should not question the institution and the slaves themselves should submit to God's will.
The reason I give the audiobook 5 stars is because one cannot help but be impressed with how Marsden threw himself into the subject-matter and presented Edwards in the best light possible. The reader of the audiobook also did a fine job and his voice was well-suited for an 18th century biography.

A life, the complete man
Jonathan Edwards was a man of his time, and a most extraordinary one at that. George Marsden has written a complete account if his life, complete with Edwards’s successes, failures, ups, and downs. He’s made Edwards a fully human man with his humanness on full display. The tendency to see mortal men as heroes is all too easy, and to see them as more than mortals is wrong. There was only one immortal man in Jesus Christ. What a life and one well lived. Great narration!!!

Story
Jonathan Edwards was a Protestant theologian and a leading revivalist preacher during the Great Awakening. Edwards wrote Freedom of the Will in the 18th century while working as a missionary to a tribe of Housatonic Native Americans in Massachusetts. He carefully drew out the differences of thought between the Calvinist and Arminian theologies and sided with the Calvinist views on humanity's will. Edwards sought to understand God's foreknowledge and how it related to free will and the ability to choose between good and evil.

Jonathan Edwards is widely hailed as the greatest theologian in American history. In Edwards on the Christian Life, Dane Ortlund invites us to explore the great eighteenth-century pastor’s central passion: God’s resplendent beauty. Whether the topic was the nature of love, the preeminence of Scripture, or the glory of the natural world, the concept of beauty stood at the heart of Edwards’s theology and permeated his portrait of the Christian life.
