"I have been reading the life of George Whitefield and it has set my soul aflame. His zeal, his prayer life, his preaching- how he inspires me! I now rise at 6:30 each morning and spend an hour in prayer and Bible study, and again an hour at night. And yet how ashamed I feel as I read of the fervor of Whitefield."
