God's Terrible Voice in the City

In 1665–1666, London experienced two epic catastrophes, the Great Plague and the Great Fire. Thomas Vincent was a survivor of both, and as a pastor, he gave aid and comfort to those who were suffering. In God’s Terrible Voice in the City, Vincent reflects on the tragic events to see whether England had anything to learn from them. The book contains narrative accounts of these great disasters along with Vincent’s interpretation of them as judgments on the nation and ways people should respond to turn such judgments to their advantage.
