Without question, Jonathan Edwards is the greatest pastor/theologian in American history, and certainly one of the greatest in church history. Many, when they think of Edwards, believe he was no more than a "hellfire and brimstone preacher" because of his sermon, "Sinners In the Hands of an Angry God" that they read while in high school or college. Nothing could be further from the truth on this matter. Edwards could preach on heaven, the Christian life, salvation, love (as seen in his "Charity and Its Fruits" sermon series, along with many other topics of faith just as well as he preached on eternal punishment. This episode of 2Days Denarius gives the listener a glimpse of another side of Edwards that is often ignored. How he could preach about Christ, forgiveness of sin, and salvation in the two devotionals in this podcast with a gentle but total focus on the truth about God's forgiveness for the greatest of sinners will give great encouragement to the lost and those who are saved as well. This is great listening! And may help listeners with a new desire to explore other works by Edwards that are readily available to this day. In addition, this podcast includes Jonathan Edwards own personal testimony about how he came to faith in Christ in the beginning of this podcast. There is a special bonus at the end of this podcast too!

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.
