"This book is the kind of manifesto that if heeded, could reverse the downward trajectory and truly heal our land."
Byron Paulus, Founder/President OneCry

"A valuable book," Brian H. Edwards, author, A People Saturated with God

"A fascinating and unique study. . . . Indeed, I know of no other study quite like it." Tom Lennie, revival historian.

"The chapters on the biblical theology of revival. . . alone justify the book's purchase." Michael Graham, author, Cheer Up! The Life and Ministry of Jack Miller.

A "timely book on revival. . . . While beneficial for individual use, the book could well have its greatest impact were it to be taken up by many churches and used as a tool for groups to study." Hector Morrison, Principal of Highland Theological College, Dingwall, Scotland.

A Rallying Cry for United Prayer

It is no secret that the professing church of Christ is in a weak and compromised state. The spiritual capital from bygone revivals and awakenings has been spent. We have conformed to the world instead of transforming it, and have buckled under today's endeavors to rid the world of the biblical Judeo-Christian influence. As we awake from our slumbers, we lament what has become of society, but are yet to gather as we could do to implore God for his forgiveness and intervention. Complaints come so much easier than laments.

Our Inspiration to Pray

While the situation should be enough to compel the Lord's people to implore God for his reviving, here four friends familiar with calling on God together identify four inspirations to seek Our biblical The record of God's extraordinary works in the Old and New Testaments.Our historical Four great national awakenings in U.S. history and the revival in the 1970s.Our spiritual Lessons from Jonathan Edwards, the theologian of revival, on why we pray, and some hallmarks of effectual prayer.Our practical The evident need for prayer for pulpits and pews, mentors and disciples. The result is a fresh study and applied textbook on revival that stirs thought, challenges the heart, and counters the neglect of corporate prayer.

Informing our Prayers with a Fresh View of Revival

While learning from Scripture and the lessons of history, Will You Not Revive Us Again? does more than rehash previous books on revival. The authors offer ~A confession of the sins of the present in church and society.A fresh biblical theology of revival to inform those burdened to pray for another. A consideration of the interrelationship between revival, reformation, and awakening.Stimulating summaries of historic movements of God's Spirit in America, with a new study of the 1970s revival.A readiness to learn from historic mistakes, especially regarding the nurturing of the fruit of revival.
