About this listen

In many ways, we are still riding the spiritual wave ignited by the Great Awakening. At the heart of this movement was one remarkable man, the great evangelist George Whitefield. Published in 1677, The Life of God in the Soul of Man was originally crafted in 1676 as a personal letter by Henry Scougal, a 26-year-old professor of divinity at King’s College, University of Aberdeen. This profound spiritual classic, which eloquently articulates Scougal’s vision of true religion and its transformative benefits, found its way into the hands of notable figures like Susanna Wesley and her son Charles, ultimately reaching George Whitefield. Upon reading it, Whitefield remarked, I never knew what true religion was till God sent me this excellent treatise. This discourse played a pivotal role in Whitefields conversion, and it holds valuable insights for all Christ-followers today. Reflecting on its teachings can rekindle the divine life within our own souls. (Introduction by M. Sirasky)Copyright Religious Texts and Commentary
