An Inspiring History of Spiritual Awakenings in America

Seventeen thirty-four marked the beginning of one of the most important periods in the history of North America. Sparked by the preaching of Jonathan Edwards, the flames of revival spread throughout New England, invigorating the church with new believers and a renewed passion for God. Down through the centuries other great awakenings swept across the nation as God sent spiritual revival through the ministries of George Whitefield, Charles Finney, Dwight L. Moody, and many others. This revised and updated edition includes a new chapter on revivals of the twentieth century, such as Azusa Street and the Billy Graham crusades.

Today, America is in need of a fresh awakening from God. May the captivating stories of what God did in the eighteenth, nineteenth, and twentieth centuries inspire you to pray for a new season of great revival.
