30 before 30 – #14 Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God
When I was in college, a local Christian bookstore had an inventory of books that they couldn’t sell due to water damage. And they gave those books to my college. Fortunately for me, the day they were giving them away was at a chapel that like no one showed up to. I could barely carry the stack of books I brought home that day. And among them was a thin pamphlet containing Jonathan Edward’s ‘Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God’.
I have heard this sermon referenced many times over the years, but this was the first time I had read it. It’s an exceptional treatise and I would add it to my list of books that I think every believer should read at some time in their lives.

I bought Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God about a year ago. Such a masterpiece and so filled with grace and humility considering the title.

I was surprised at how humble it felt. Especially near the beginning it felt written in such a quiet manner.
