ashbridge compared to edwards

Elizbeth Ashbridge's personal narrative is completely different then the one i previously read Jonathan Edwards. While they both relate their religious views, i feel Ashbridge discusses more about her life outside of religion and the different struggles she went through. some of these struggles included becoming an indentured servant, marrying a man she didnt love, and becoming shunned by her fater for some time. Something unique about Ashbridge's life was how her views on religion were altered through her life. Growing up and for part of her adult life, she never took an interest in religion. However, when she goes to visit her aunt and uncle she reads from a Quaker book and changes to those beliefs. Her husboand feels she isnt the same women he fell in love with. It is ironic ho Ashbridge looke ddown on all these religious females in her life but in the end became one of them. an example is when she shes a women speaker for the Quaker religion and says she would never convert to the religion and if did never speak out like that. However, in the end she becomes a preacher. Looking back at Edwards life, he also saw a strong connection with God and tried to live his life accoringly but that isnt the case for Elizabeth.
