The Jonathan Edwards Center at Yale University

The Jonathan Edwards Center at Yale is pleased to announce JE Centers in Africa, Australia and Poland.Strategic partnerships have been established with the University of the Free State, Bloemfontein, South Africa, Ridley Melbourne Mission & Ministry College, Melbourne, Australia and the Evangelical School of Theology, Wroclaw, Poland.

The establishment of these JE Centers is a significant expansion of Edwards scholarship and will serve widely both academia and the church. In recent years, a rapidly growing interest in Edwards as theologian has brought the man and his writings onto the world stage, pressing beyond the popular and more parochial image of Edwards primarily as American preacher and American historic figure.   Increasingly, his writings are being consulted by religious leaders, pastors, and churches around the world, spurred by a growing recognition of the fervency and universality of the Edwards message and the acumen with which he appraised religious experience.

This interest in Edwards globally has been fuelled in part by the work of the Jonathan Edwards Center at Yale University, whose sole mission is to support inquiry into the life, writings, and legacy of Jonathan Edwards by providing resources that encourage critical appraisal of the historical importance and contemporary relevance of America’s premier theologian.
