Book Description
Excerpt from The Life of the Rev. David Brainerd, Missionary to the North American Indians The Memoir Of Brainerd published in 1749, fol lowed next in the course of Missionary Biography. His career was brief. He died at the age Of 30; but he has left an imperishable memorial. The scene of his labours was very Obscure, limited, and remote, but his usefulness has extended through the churches Of Christ over the world. The peculiar devotedness Of heart to his Saviour which it pleased God to bestow upon him, and his ardent and unquenchable spirit Of zeal for the enlargement of his kingdom, have been one great means by which God has kindled that missionary zeal, which is now spreading through the Protestant Churches Of Christ. There have been few devoted labourers since the publication of Brainerd's life who have not been greatly benefited by it.
