While starting to think about the book, The Great Awakening by Kidd, and the actual great awakening of the 1700s, I wanted to provide an updated example of how some of the language from this book might sound today. This is not completely possible, but the video below is somewhat of an attempt to do this. Similar ideas, different historical era and context. What I like about the video is that Metaxas has written about historical figures (one of them, William Wilberforce, was an 18th century firebrand who helped spur massive social change motivated by his religious convictions).
I also enjoy Metaxas's humor, graciousness, and conviction.
