Jonathan Edwards (1703–1758) was a prominent American theologian, preacher, and philosopher of the 18th century, best known for his role in the First Great Awakening. A leading figure in Reformed theology, Edwards emphasized the sovereignty of God, human depravity, and the necessity of divine grace for salvation. His most famous sermon, Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God (1741), exemplifies his intense preaching style and theological commitment to revivalism. As a prolific writer, Edwards contributed significantly to religious thought, particularly in works like Religious Affections (1746), which explored the nature of true Christian experience. His intellectual legacy extends beyond theology, influencing American evangelicalism and philosophical discussions on free will and determinism.
