At last, Henry hears, \u201cThis is the way, go in it.\u201d But the path is neither easy nor simple. He faces immediate opposition from the church, and he isn\u2019t free to pursue his affections for Catherine.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">When the elders force Henry to leave, George Whitefield, evangelist extraordinaire, invites him on a tour through the southern colonies.
