Question

The British preacher George Whitefield's preaching style was imitated by several American preachers. What best describes his style?

Answer 1

Explanation:

George Whitefield was perhaps one the greatest preachers who ever lived. His ability to persuade and capture the attention of thousands of listeners at one given time, resembles that of the Apostles of the First Century. He sparked the First Great Awakening when he brought the word of God to the open fields. I read in his journals where he preached to 20,000, 30,000 and even 60,000 people in the open field!

His style was dramatic and enthusiastic. He waived his arms, shouted and even wept to persuade sinners to turn from sin and trust Jesus as their Savior.
