Davies (1723-1761) was Jonathan Edwards's successor at Princeton University and a key proponent of social justice. A preeminent evangelist and his era's finest preacher, these are his Sermons on Important Subjects.

Samuel Davies was called "the most eloquent preacher the American continent has ever produced" by Martyn Lloyd-Jones in his book Preaching and Preachers. Volume One consists largely of evangelistic sermons, for Davies was, first and foremost, a preacher of God's Word and an evangelist. For those who want to know how someone can be Reformed and evangelistic at the same time, this book is the answer to that question. Volume Two contains 31 sermons, some of which are entitled: "Jesus Christ the Only Foundation," "The Necessity and Excellency of Family Religion," and "The Doom of the Incorrigible Sinner." Volume Three contains 35 sermons, some of which are entitled: "Evidences of a Lack of Love for God," "The Curse of Cowardice," and "God the Sovereign of all Kingdoms."
