Book review — Sarah Edwards – Delighting in God

Book: Sarah Edwards – Delighting in GodAuthor: Sharon JamesPublisher: Evangelical PressRetail Price: £8.99 (buy now)
Review by Sheila Stephen1 minute readJanuary/February 2024

Sarah Edwards – Delighting in God

Sarah Edwards, the wife of Jonathan Edwards, did not have an easy life and this book gives us an insight into the hardships she bore. It gives a glimpse into the true nature of her personal revival experiences. Quoting Sarah Edward’s own words, Sharon James takes the reader to that place of Sarah’s close intimacy and union with Christ. These were times of revival and we learn more about that too, as well as the suffering endured by the Edwards family. The reader will be intrigued, informed and encouraged. Sarah’s delight in God will challenge you as will the questions for reflection at the end of each chapter.
