Working for Revival in the Church and City Transformation
Working for Revival in the Church and City Transformation
The biography about a man, who along with many others, was caught up in a pwerful move of God in the Welsh Revival of 1904-1905. He began to sense that God was calling him to elave the mines. In what was to become a hallmark of Rees Howells life, he declared to Godk, "I believe you are able to keep me better than that mining company." He began to realize the importance of intercession for sustaining the new converts that resulted from the Welsh revival. Early in his journey of faith, he understood the significant impact, both personal and social, of a prayer filled life.
Here are twelve compelling biographies of some of the most powerful ministers ever to ignite the fires of revival by dynamically demonstrating the Holy Spirit's power. Roberts Liardon faithfully chronicles their lives along with their teachings, their spiritual discoveries, and many revealing photos. William J. Seymour, Aimee Semple McPherson, Smith Wigglesworth, and Kathryn Kuhlman are just a few of the charismatic faith leaders you'll meet in this book. Get ready to see how God worked in the lives of these generals!
HEROISM is the lost chord, the mission note of present-day Christianity! Every true soldier is a hero. A soldier withouth heroism is a CHOCOLATE SOLDIER. Who has not been stirred to scorn and mirth at the very though of a Chocolate Soldier? In peace, true soldiers are captive lions, fretting in their cages. War gives them their liberty and sends them, like boys bounding out of school to obtain their heart's desire or perish in the attempt. Battle is the soldier's vital breath! Peace turns him into a stooping asthmatic. War makes him a whole man again, and gives him the heart, strength, and vigor of a hero. Every TRUE CHRISTIAN IS A SOLDER OF CHRIST -- a hero "par excellence"! Braver than the bravest, scorning the soft seductions of peace and her oft-repeated warnings against hardship, deisease, danger, and death, whom he counts among his bosom friends. The otherwise Christian is a Chocolate Christian! Dissolving in water and melting at the smell of fire. "Sweeties" they are! Bonbons, lollipops! Living their lives on a glass dish or in a cardboard box, each clad in his soft cloth, a little frilled white paper to preserve his dear little delicate constitution.
