Holy Living: Jonathan Edwards’s Seventy Resolutions for Living the Christian Life

Matthew Everhard
4.9/5 (33121 ratings)
Description:In Holy Living: Jonathan Edwards's Seventy Resolutions for Living the Christian Life , author Matthew Everhard explores the resolutions Jonathan Edwards wrote when he was just nineteen years old, revealing how they are still beneficial to Christians today.Though not yet ordained, Edwards (1703-1758) wrote these short but powerful aphorisms to guide his life, and now they offer spiritual guidance to a modern audience as well. Following a brief biography of Edwards, the book then looks at each resolution under three main categories: (1) existential (considering the purpose of life); (2) ethical (considering the duty and character of the Christian); and (3) eschatological (preparing for the brevity of life followed by death and eternity). Lay readers, pastors, students, church elders, and study group members will find troves of timeless wisdom and guidance for how to live the Christian life.Chapters are split into five sections (An Introduction to the Life of Jonathan Edwards, The Meaning and Purpose of Life, How Should We Then Live?, The Brevity of Life and Eternal World to Come, and Why Did Jonathan Edwards Stop Using the Resolutions?) and include:Edwards's Youth and Conversion to ChristThe Early Pastoral YearsThe Writing of the ResolutionsFaith and AssurancePeace Relationships and Self-ControlThe Brevity of LifeHeaven and HellBetween Antinomianism and LegalismReflections of a More Mature SaintResolutions and the Gospel of GraceAbout the AuthorDr. Matthew Everhard is the senior pastor of Gospel Fellowship Presbyterian Church (PCA), a Reformed congregation just north of Pittsburgh.
