Shubal Stearns (sometimes spelled Shubael; 28 January 1706 – November 20, 1771) was a colonial evangelist and preacher during the Great Awakening. He converted after hearing George Whitefield and planted a Baptist Church in Sandy Creek, Guilford County, North Carolina.[1] Stearns' highly successful ministry was related to the rise and expansion of the Separate Baptists[1] — especially in much of the American South.
