Jonathan Edwards - Born in S. Windsor, Connecticut, the fifth of 11 children in a strict Puritan home, he entered Yale College at 13. In 1727 he was named a pastor at his grandfather’s church in Northampton, Massachusetts. His most famous sermon, “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God,” vividly evokes the fate of unrepentant sinners in Hell. (The World’s Great Sermons - Grenville Kleiser)
