Description

Gilbert Tennent (1703-1764) was an Irish-American Presbyterian clergyman, and one of the leaders of the Great Awakening.

Tennent begins this sermon on thankfulness with reference to Ephesians 5:20, Psalms 103:2, 1 Thessalonians 5:18, and Psalms 50:14. From dates noted on the manuscript, it looks like Tennent wrote this sermon in 1746, then delivered it again in 1756 and 1758.
