So you all can let me know who's ready with your presentation. So Enoch said that next class he would be presenting on Jonathan Edward. So do we have Subashish ready with George Whitefield? Subashish, are you ready with your presentation? Okay, or anyone from the class? Arathna, are you ready with your presentation? Yes, ma'am. Okay, so can you present it? Jefina is presenting. Jefina is presenting? Okay, no worries. So you can explain. Good. Can you be a little loud? Arathna, can you be a little loud or you can keep your mic close to your mouth so that your voice can be heard? Yes, ma'am. So today I will speak about Henry Martin. So, Jefina, next slide. So Henry Martin was a Anglican priest and missionary to the people of India and Pashi Truto. He was educated at Truno Grammar School and Stengen College. Abubaka, you're trying to present something? Yes, I'm trying to. Yeah, I don't know how to. I'm trying to do not extend the chain. That's why I'm crying. Yes, yes, David Brighton. Can we do that after Arathna? Right now Arathna is presenting on Henry Martin. So once she finishes her presentation, maybe we can take second years. You can present after that. Is that okay? Okay. Okay, thank you so much. Yes. Please go ahead, Arathna. Yes ma'am. Henry Martin was a Anglican priest who did missionary service in India and Pashi. Henry lost his mother shortly after his birth and was raised by his father, John Martin. In his youth, Henry had a fire and fiery and wild temple. Once he was about to almost kill his friend by throwing the knife in anger. However, the death of his father completely changed his nature. He went to St. John's College, Cambridge and studied mathematics. Her fellowship with the Church of England pastor Charles Slimman helped her grow in her faith in the Lord fascinated by the testimonies of David, Bradner and William Carrick. Henry called his friends side by side and all ambition and to become an angel of Christian hope in foreign land. He decided he joined the East India Company as a priest and in 1806 I came to India. He first reached Serampur and then went to Dinapur. He quickly learned Hindi, Urdu, learned Bengali and started preaching the gospel in local languages. Fellow missionaries encouraged by him. He made Bible translation his main ministry. They knew Testament and Anglican prayer book translated into Urdu so that Muslim of India to preach the gospel properly. He also established schools for children. Later in 1090, Martin for an evangelical epa among Muslims travelled to Persia, mortal Iran to race despite a deteriorating health condition. He translated a new testament into Persia and Arabic languages. Later in 1892 he stayed out on house by God's cause by hoping to save among the Armenian falling. However, during that 1300 mile journey they vacant and reached the directed location. There was no more power to reach. He started his career at the age of 31 in the middle of that journey. Martin was a powerful man. So Henry Martin died on 16 August. So Henry Martin lived in India as a missionary for 6 years. There was no more power to reach. Thank you so much for sharing on Martin. Henry Martin, it was a good one indeed. Thank you for the presentation as well. Thank you, Jeffina for presenting the presentation. So we have Abu Bakr present on David Brinad was a missionary to North American Indians. So request Abu Bakr to please present your presentation and go ahead share your presentation and you can start. Good morning Martin. Good morning. I don't know how to share it on the Google. Can you share it on the WhatsApp and we can have Jeffina share it for all of us. If you can share your presentation on WhatsApp in your group. We'll have Jeffina share it for all of us. Okay, let me try and share it before I can send it. Jeffina, are you okay to present it for all of us? Yeah, thanks. Okay, in the main world class. Let's give a applause to Aradna who took effort to share the presentation on Henry Martin and Aradna. You did well. Thank you. Okay, anyone else who's ready to share Elisha, Bracey, Lama or Paul, are you ready with your presentation? Sorry, I didn't get that. I'll share my presentation. Okay, okay. Let me continue. Okay, just give me a minute. I'll just check. Jeffina, you have received it? Okay. She has received it. She will present it soon. Okay. Yes, you can start. Thank you, Jeffina, for sharing it. I'm coming. I'm coming. Please, it's not working now. Sorry, ma'am. No problem. We can hear you. You can go ahead. David Graham was born in April, 1907, April 22, 1718 in Adam and in Adam, Connecticut. He's the son of Elishaia, a Connecticut official and Dorothy. He had a nice sibling. So one of them was Dorothy's from a previous marriage. And Dana, he became an orphan at the age of 14 yet. After his father was dead, he died in 1927, a day of 46 years. But five years later, he lost his mother. After his mother died, Dana moved to East Adam to live with one of his older sisters. All Janisha. At the age of 19, she relocated to farm near Durham. She was returned to East Adam. A year later, she was to prepare to enter Yale University. On July 12, 1979, she recorded having an experience of unspeakable glory that's brought him into hell. Halfly decided to result. So to set him on the road and to give a seat for the first syndrome. These are the perpetrators. Now, in entering into mission. So two months later, he gets admission into Yale and a row. And the second year, he was sick. And two of the sickness he was sent to. So after three years, he returned to the school. So after that, because of the sickness of the tuberculosis and his vomiting, the blood. So after three years, he was dismissed from the school because of the. Because of the criticism and criticizing one of the tutors. Python, no more great Danish. That person. So when I get over his trash and the statement, but not secure the statement, I have to, you have to, after all, remain sensitive. And if it's a bad criticism, I may think the same when it is. Then I studied with pastor. He made it to prepared for the ministry. And he was soon lances to preach. So he went to work among these Indians and. Can make about half made the team. I will be trained to stop the beach. And then New York. He didn't learn the Indian language. But I did to missionaries success. So he moved on. After being ordained by the president of New York. David began a new work among the devilish in just off. In Slovenia. Here to bring on so little success. He finished to do. Often despondent because of his. Injective ministry. The latest and the pitted in a screw. Brought home by the tuberculosis. Brigham began to live only for God. Whatever is outward success. In 1745 to 1746 during this period. David Brigham travel. Travel to minister. To minister. Sorry. You can hear us. Because. Travel. Yeah. You can continue. No. No. Just. So. New Jesse and was amazed at the immediate. Respondent of the India to the Christian message. Over 100 Indians at the time came to him in the region. Bring poor houses out. Poor house is live. In ministry to these Indians. Writing that. He wanted. Born out. In. One continue for God. He had the secure. He helped the secure land for India when. There was a training and so. Constructed his church. Two and company. Company. And it can be. By the fall of. 1746. When I was in. Please leave. Of blood. The famous. Pastor. Brought him to his home. In. Let me. Where. Last month. Securing. On. Seven. Seven. And. Brinnant. Right. Grinning. I'd be. Overhead. If I. Not. You. Be happy. Another one. Part with you but we should. Spend. Make it better. together. Just Joseph contacted tuberculosis also and died in a few months after David at the age of 18 years. After David Boehner's death, Jonathan Edward edited and published his Diary describing as an example of devotional life, most worthy of imitation. The Diary was so influenced by many missionaries in the future generation, including William Garry and Eileen Martin. We all went to India and Jim Elliot and James Contrary, missionaries who gave his life ministry to the Alkar in India. One of the instructive elements of life was on how much time he spent in prayer, not only by himself but with other Christians. For example, September 10, 1714, in the afternoon he prayed with a dear friend, privately, and at the presence of God with us. So our souls united together to reach after the bloodless Jonathan. In December 11, 1742, he wrote, he bled them, came to Mr Bellam Lodging and spent the evening with him in sweet conversation and prayer. In December 23, 1742, 1742, a road to a new heaven and they all joined some sweetness in prayer and conversation with some dear friends, Christian friends. My mind was full, serious and composed. So that is how we're enjoying praying with people and our sacred place to save my time. Because I want the vener to move it forward. So what we observed in the lives of Brennan, David Brennan is, Brennan rarely always reports the vibrant times of prayer when praying with friends. Sacred prayer is necessary and important, but we should remember that praying alcohol we order in the midst of God often used to minister to our soul in a powerful way. Brennan, Brennan's sacred prayer was often more lively and focused after spending time together with friends in prayer. So Brennan went as he mentioned earlier, sometimes with a translator, was often with no friend but with us. He was working among the tribe with zero Christian. He often struggled with despair and horrible loneliness. I wonder how his ministry or what with Christ he has been different if he had a life-minding co-worker in the application of his life. So we should pray together as a Christian, that is number one. Number two, if we don't have friends that we want to pray with, if we seek out additional friends, it's not something we do with accidentally. Number three, we need to ask other to pray for us and we trust if we want to grow in Christ or to be useful in advance of the gospel. Number four, we should pray with missionary, just for missionaries whenever we have the opportunity. And lastly, we should probably, we should probably never apply so as Brennan did the last few years of his life. So that's my position. Thank you. Thank you Abubakar. Thank you so much for sharing in detail on the life of David Brennan, who was a missionary to the North American Indians. Thank you so much. You did a good job. Yeah. Class, y'all can go ahead and compliment Abubakar, please. You can leave your comments on the chat. Okay. Okay. So let's check our list was in the class for next. Who would like to do your presentation next? I think almost everyone who have logged in have completed. Okay. We have Subashish here. Subashish, would you like to present? Would you like to share your presentation on George Whitefield now? Yeah, you did. You did. Thanks. Thanks. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. So, yeah, almost everyone have completed. Yeah, we have Bracey and Pauli with two, but they are not there right now. Okay. Okay. Let's try to share on our learnings from Henry Martin and David Brennan. What was our learning from these two people's life class y'all can unmute and share your learning from these two people, Henry Martin and David Brennan. So, yeah, you can unmute and share. What was your learning people's life like Henry Martin and David Brennan before we could go to the next session? Okay. So maybe in the next class, we'll have Bracey, Paul, you were two and Enoch share on the topics or on the person that has been assigned to them. So in the meanwhile, I thought today, we can learn about the second great awakening. So the first great awakening is about Jonathan Edwards, which Enoch will cover it in the next class. As he is talking about Jonathan Edwards, he should also be covering on the first great awakening. So as we have about another 15 to 20 minutes, I thought I will share about the second great awakening which took place from 1790 to 1840. It was a time of Vanslekel revival in the new formed nation of America. So we see here the British colonies were settled by the individuals and we're looking for a place to worship the Christian religion free from persecution. So we see that the Americans rose as a religion with related to that. We see that the America rose as a religious nation as observed by Alexis D. Tocqueville and the other leaders who lived there. So part and parcel of these strong beliefs came a free secularism. So with this, the fear of secularism had risen during the entitlement, which resulted in the first great awakening in the period of 1720 to 1745. So well, the idea of social equality that came about with the advent of the new nation trickled down to the religion and the moment to be known as the second great awakening, which began in 1790. So we see that specifically Methodist and the Baptist began an effort to democratize religion, unlike the Episopalian religion. So we see that the ministers in these sects were typically uneducated. So unlike the Calvinists, they believed and preached in salvation for all. So what was great revival? So what was the great revival? So at the beginning of the second great awakening, we see preachers brought the message to the people with great fanfare and excitement in form of a traveling revival. Then we see the earliest of the 10th revivals, which focused on the Appalachian frontier, but they quickly moved into the area of the original colonies. So these revivals were social events where faith was renewed. So we see that the Baptist and the Methodist often work together in these revivals, where both religions believed in free will with personal redemption. So the Baptists were highly decentralized, with no hierarchical structure in place. And we also see the preachers lived and worked among the congregations. So what happened? The Methodist, on the other hand, had more of an internal structure in place. They were very organized people. And these other individual preachers, like the Methodist or the Bishop Francis Asprey, lived in this time from 1745 to 1816. And also the Backwoods preacher, known as Mr. Peter Carr White, who also lived among them from 1785 to 1872, would travel the frontier on a horseback converting people to the Methodist faith. So they were quite successful. By 1840s, the Methodist were the largest Protestant group in America. We see the revival meetings were not restricted to the frontiers or to the white people. So in many areas, particularly the South, Black people held separate revivals at the same time with the two groups joining together on the last day. So they called it as Black Harry Horsier. The person who headed this was Black Harry Horsier in 1750 to 1906, the first African-American Methodist preacher. And a fabul orator, despite being illiterate, was a crossover success in both Black and white revivals. So his effort on those of the ordained ministry, like Richard Allen who lived during the same time, led to the founding of the African Methodist Church or African Methodist Episcopal Church. It is known as AME African Methodist Episcopal Church in 1794. So what happened here? We see the revival meetings were not in small affairs, but we see thousands of thousand would camp into a meeting. And many times this small event turned quite chaotic sometimes where they were singing and shouting and the individuals speaking in tongues and dancing on the aisles. So this was the moment that involved the move. Yeah. So some of the key points I would like to share about the great, the second great awakening. So some of the key takeaways that we could take from the second great awakening are just give me a minute, please. I would like to share these points on a slide so that it would help us. Just give me a minute. Yeah. I got it here. Okay. I'm just sharing the slide with you. Give me a moment please for the benefit of everyone online and e-learning. This will help us a lot. Okay. Okay. We are there. Okay. I guess everyone can see. So here are the key takeaways from the second great awakening. The second great awakening took place in the new United States of America between 1790 to 1840. And it pushed the idea of individualism, salvation, and it gave a free will over the predestination. And the thirdly, it greatly increased the number of Christians, both in New England and on the frontier. The fourth point we see is the revivals and the public conversions became social events that continued to this day. And the fifth point we see that there is the African Methodist Church was founded in Philadelphia. And the lastly, we see that the Mormonism was founded and led to faith settlement in Salt Lake City, Utah. Okay. So when it comes to Mormonism, we know what it is. You will be studying in detail when we study the world religion on world religion and the different cults that are in Christianity. Okay. So with that, we will end this session on the second great, I mean, on Christian history and missions. Others, if you all have any questions that you would like to share or your learnings, anything on the three people, I mean, on the three events like Henry, Martin, or David, David, Brenard, or the second grade of awakening, you have, is there anything to share? You all can unmute and share. Zellie is asked, which page are we in in the notes? Okay. I'll tell you which page were on 49, page 49 on the notes. So next class, we have completed page 52. So next class, we will be starting page 51 on the 19th century, preparing the way. After the three people presenting their turn, we can start with a new chapter. Okay. If there's anyone would like to share, everyone, we can end the session with a word of prayer. Zellie, would you would like to end the session with a word of prayer, please? Yes, sir. Yes, please. Martin, thank you so much for this wonderful session. We have Lord, Lord, we bless my fellow students who have presented Lord bless them also and bless Jeff and also continue to use her as a vessel for the glory of yours.

Thank you so much for joining in this session and thank you each one for preparing your presentation. Each one of your life done your best, given your best. So let's give applause to everyone in the class and we will encourage and wait for the three others to present the assigned topic for them in the next class. Thank you guys.
