27. MULTIGENERATIONAL LEGACIES
Jonathan Edwards, was a Puritan
Preacher in the 1700s. He was one of
the most respected preachers in his
day. He attended Yale at the age of
thirteen and later went on to become
the president of Princeton college.

28. He married his wife Sara in 1727 and
they were blessed with eleven children.
Every night when Mr. Edwards was
home, he would spend an hour
conversing with his family and then
praying a blessing over each child.

29. Jonathan and his wife Sarah passed on
a great, godly legacy to their eleven
children.

30. An American educator, A.E. Winship
decided to trace the descendants of
Jonathan Edwards almost 150 years
after his death. His findings are
remarkable, especially when compared
to another man from the same time
period known as Max Jukes.

31. Jonathan Edwards’ legacy includes:
1 U.S. Vice-President,
1 Dean of a law school,
1 dean of a medical school,
3 U.S. Senators,
3 governors,
3 mayors,

32. Jonathan Edwards’ legacy includes:
13 college presidents,
30 judges,
60 doctors,
65 professors,
75 Military officers,
80 public office holders,

33. Jonathan Edwards’ legacy includes:
100 lawyers,
100 clergymen,
and 285 college graduates.

34. How may this be explained?
Edwards was a godly man, but he was
also hard working, intelligent and moral.
Furthermore, Winship states, “Much of
the capacity and talent, intensity and
character of the more than 1,400 of
Edwards’ family is due to Mrs.
Edwards.”

35. Max Jukes’ legacy came to
people’s attention when the family trees
of 42 different men in the New York
prison system were traced back to him.
He lived in New York at about the same
period as Edwards.

36. The Jukes family originally was studied
by sociologist Richard L. Dugdale in
1877.

37. Jukes’ descendants included:
7 murderers,
60 thieves,
190 prostitutes,
150 other convicts,
310 paupers,
and 440 who were physically wrecked
by addiction to alcohol.

38. Of the 1,200 descendants that were
studied, 300 died prematurely.

39. These contrasting legacies provide an
example of what some call the
five-generation rule.

40. “How a parent raises their child
— the love they give, the values they
teach, the emotional environment they
offer, the education they provide
— influences not only their children but
the four generations to follow, either for
good or evil.”

41. What a challenging thought!
If someone studied your descendants
four generations later, what would you
want them to discover?
Do you want an Edwards’ legacy or a
Jukes’ legacy? The life you live will
determine the legacy you leave!

54. PLAY FIND US FAITHFUL

55. We're pilgrims on the journey
Of the narrow road,
And those who've gone before us
Line the way.
Cheering on the faithful,
Encouraging the weary,

56. Their lives a stirring testament
To god's sustaining grace.
O may all who come behind us
Find us faithful,
May the fire of our devotion
Light their way.

57. May the footprints that we leave,
Lead them to believe,
And the lives we live
Inspire them to obey.
O may all who come behind us
Find us faithful.

58. Surrounded by so great
A cloud of witnesses,
Let us run the race
Not only for the prize,
But as those who've gone before us.
Let us leave to those behind us,
The heritage of faithfulness …

59. Passed on thru godly lives.
After all our hopes and dreams
Have come and gone,
And our children sift thru all
We've left behind,
May the clues that they discover,

60. And the mem'ries they uncover,
Become the light that leads them,
To the road we each must find.
