What is George Whitefield Voice That Woke the World about?
George Whitefield dreamed of becoming an actor, but God gave him a powerful voice for preaching. In eighteenth-century Britain and America, crowds gathered to hear him speak about Jesus Christ. From humble beginnings, Whitefield became one of the most famous preachers of his age, travelling thousands of miles and delivering an astonishing number of sermons. This engaging biography follows his faith, courage and determination as he shared the gospel with rich and poor, including enslaved people in America.
