Overview

Discover the timeless wisdom of George Whitefield, the most influential evangelist of the Great Awakening, through this powerful 31-day spiritual journey. Step into the extraordinary world of the 18th century's most dynamic preacher--a man who crossed the Atlantic thirteen times, preached 18,000 sermons, and literally transformed the spiritual landscape of two continents. From his passionate emphasis on the ""new birth"" to his remarkable humility in deflecting all glory to Jesus, Whitefield's life challenges modern believers to embrace authentic, transformational Christianity. Each daily reading features an authentic quote from Whitefield's sermons, personal journals, or correspondence, paired with contextual insights that bring his world to life, relevant Scripture, and practical faith activation steps. Whether confronting opposition with grace, finding strength in weakness, or building strategic kingdom partnerships, Whitefield demonstrates what wholehearted devotion to Christ looks like in practice. Pastor Chris Goeppner draws from years of studying Whitefield's writings and visiting historical sites throughout New England to reveal not just his theological insights but his heart--his struggles with adversity, seasons of spiritual dryness, and unwavering commitment to making Christ known whatever the cost. This devotional addresses contemporary challenges: cultural Christianity, spiritual comfort zones, self-promotion culture, and evangelistic hesitancy. Through biographical spiritual formation, readers encounter faith lived boldly through real circumstances, moving from historical insight to personal application. For believers seeking renewed passion, ministry leaders wanting proven strategies, and anyone desiring to live with greater spiritual intensity, Walking with Whitefield provides a month of inspiration from a man whose voice still resonates centuries later. The message is clear: the same God who worked powerfully through an 18th-century evangelist desires to work through contemporary believers willing to embrace Christ-centered living with similar dedication and humility.

Author Information

Chris Goeppner (pronounced Gep-ner) is the founding pastor of Riverbank Church in White River Junction, Vermont, which he launched in 2010 after following God's call to leave his longtime home in South Florida. After 14 years of ministry in New England, a three-month sabbatical sparked his deep interest in the region's spiritual heritage, particularly the life and ministry of George Whitefield. Chris attended Palm Beach Atlantic University and Word of Life Bible Institute. He has been married to his wife Penny since 1999, and they have two sons and three dogs. When he's not leading his church or exploring historical sites connected to the Great Awakening, Chris enjoys listening to music, spending time with family, and cheering on the Boston Celtics! His journey from Florida's beaches to Vermont's mountains reflects his commitment to faith and community. Chris's passion for Whitefield's ministry led him to visit numerous historical sites, collect early editions of Whitefield's writings, and ultimately create this devotional to share the timeless wisdom of colonial America's most influential evangelist.
