Jonathan Edwards, in the eyes of many in the Christian faith, remains the greatest theologian America ever produced. Unfortunately, many tie Edwards to a particular sermon he preached in Enfield, CT, in 1741 and to this day label him as a "hellfire and brimstone preacher" only. This is vastly untrue. This episode of 2Days Denarius takes a look at the conversion of Jonathan Edwards in his own words, along with a few quotes to help demonstrate Edwards's ability to preach on or address the full counsel of God in thorough fashion. This episode is gospel oriented and encourages Christians to focus highly on our Lord and Savior daily in their walk of faith.
Quote regarding the conversion of Jonathan Edwards comes from the excellent book:
"The Essential Jonathan Edwards" by Owen Strachan, Douglas Allen Sweeney & John Piper. Moody Publishers: 2010.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
