David Brainerd was an 18th century colonial man for the people. We also have it on good authority that his pals called him 'Davey the Brain.' 

After running into obstacles on his path into pastoral leadership, David opted for a different calling: mission work to the Native Americans.

Although his life would be cut short by illness, Brainerd's legacy would survive him through his journal, published by Great Awakening titan Jonathan Edwards. 

Check it out.
