George Whitefield on Sarah Edwards and Her Marriage

George Whitefield commented on Jonathan and Sarah Edwards’ relationship following his visit to Northampton in 1740:

"A sweeter Couple I have not yet seen … She … talked feelingly and solidly of the Things of God, and seemed to be such a Help meet for her Husband that she caused me to … [pray] God, that he would be pleased to send me a Daughter of Abraham to be my wife." (Marriage to a Difficult Man, 1971: 80).
