Link of the Week-Edwards @ Yale

I have decided to begin a weekly post series. Each Wednesday I will post a Link of the Week, consisting of the most helpful, interesting, or simply funniest site I have come across the web in the previous 168 hours.

The Link of the Week is.....The Jonathan Edwards Center at Yale University. I came across this fantastic site via Nathan Finn's blog. Thank you, Mr. Finn, for pointing me to the Edwards Center. To refresh your memory if you are not so familiar with Jonathan Edwards, he was the man who wrote Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God. Most likely you read or were referred to this sermon in your high school American literature class. Edwards (1703-1758) is unanimously lauded as the greatest theological mind America has ever produced, and was a prolific author in addition to his work as a family man (10 kids!), pastor, missionary, and university president.

The Edwards Center is such a valuable resource because it not only gives the general public a basic introduction to the life and thought of this great man, but also has a fully searchable database of Edwards' writings. Needless to say, this is a great resouce for all interested in Edwards, popular and scholarly audiences alike.

When you are sold on the value of studying Jonathan Edwards for both your mental and spiritual edification, you can top it all off by purchasing your very own "Jonathan Edwards is My Homeboy" t-shirt.
