Summary "The Life of Rev. David Brainerd, Chiefly Extracted from His Diary" by David Brainerd is a historical account written in the early 18th century. This work primarily revolves around the life and spiritual journey of Rev. David Brainerd, an early American missionary known for his efforts among Native Americans. It offers a deep insight into his religious experiences, struggles, and the devotion that characterized his ministry. At the start of this memoir, we see Brainerd's early life, including his birth in Connecticut and the impact of personal tragedies, such as the death of his mother, on his spiritual development. The opening chapters reveal his struggles with faith, the challenges of reconciling his self-perception with his religious duties, and his eventual dedication to the ministry. Through a detailed account of his experiences, including feelings of melancholy and the pursuit of divine encounters, the beginning of this book sets the tone for a profound exploration of faith, inner turmoil, and the relentless quest for God's purpose in his life.
