If you missed the Live seminar you can refer to the above text transcripts and also the Audio part of the presentation is here for you to listen to enjoy:George Whitefield (1714-1770) with Jesse Morrell No church, school, or theology bears his name. Yet this nearly forgotten preacher sparked America's Great Awakening. Who was he? What did he do? What can we learn from him today?

I really enjoyed listening to the audio file of Jesse's seminar. I believe it will be a blessing to all who hear it!God Bless,-Robert

I really enjoyed listening to the audio file of Jesse's seminar. I believe it will be a blessing to all who hear it!Yes I fully concur that his passion and the way he presented himself in the online medium was very impressive. I am looking forward to having brother Jesse speak again on SermonIndex. If you decide to come to another of his online seminars be prepared to be challanged, convicted, and changed. He has a message for a sleepy lukewarm church that is not active in the business of the kingdom.
