Emphasis Preaching Journal

Adoniram Judson after being a Deist at Providence College (now Brown University) realized after graduation that it was aimless philosophy and converted to Christianity. He took upon himself the role of evangelist and became one of the founders of the American Baptist Missionary Society. Unable to be accepted in the southeast countries of choice, he took his missionary venture to Burma in 1812. He and his wife Ann were the only Christians in the entire country. After six long and exhausting years he had his first convert, Moung Nau.
