Synopsis "Diary & Journal of David Brainerd "

The Diary and Journal of David Brainerd (1718-1747) is of much more than merely historical interest. The first internationally recognized biography to be printed in America, the first full missionary biography ever to be published, it has had a profound impact on successive generations of Christians around the world. Few books have done so much to promote prayer and missionary action as the Life of Brainerd, and it is not without good reason that it has remained in print since the great New England pastor and theologian Jonathan Edwards first published it in 1749.Between 1742 and his death in 1747 David Brainerd took the gospel to the North American Indians in New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Massachusetts. He willingly ran any risk and accepted any hardship to fulfill his calling as a missionary. The amount of work which he achieved in such unpromising and difficult circumstances now seems almost incredible. His total dedication to the cause of making Christ known inspired the finest of missionaries who followed in his footsteps.

David Brainerd (1718–1747) fue un misionero presbiteriano estadounidense conocido por su dedicación a la evangelización de los pueblos nativos americanos en el noreste de Estados Unidos. Nació en Haddam, Connecticut, y quedó huérfano a los 14 años. Tras una experiencia espiritual profunda en 1739, se comprometió al ministerio y estudió en Yale, aunque fue expulsado por sus críticas al personal académico. En 1742, fue ordenado ministro y comenzó su labor misionera en 1743, trabajando entre los indios delaware en Nueva Jersey y los seneca en Nueva York y Pensilvania.

Su vida estuvo marcada por la pobreza, la enfermedad y la soledad. Contrajo tuberculosis en 1746 y pasó sus últimos meses bajo el cuidado de Jonathan Edwards en Northampton, donde falleció en 1747 a los 29 años. A pesar de su corta vida, dejó un legado duradero. Su diario personal fue publicado por Jonathan Edwards en 1749, inspirando a generaciones de misioneros y líderes cristianos, como William Carey y Jim Elliot. Su ejemplo de sacrificio y devoción sigue siendo una fuente de inspiración en la historia del cristianismo misionero.
