It only takes a look at the evening news for us to realise that there is much wrong with this world of ours. The sins of Greed, Lust, Violence and Corruption are rife in all sections of our society. Christians are becoming at best an irrelevance and at worst a persecuted minority. Walter C Kaiser Jr. suggests the one answer to these pressing problems, revival. Not a foot-stomping, soul- saving series of meetings, but an individual believer's refocusing on God as the centre of life.

With his usual scholarship and vision Dr Walter C. Kaiser Jr. reveals spiritual principles inherent in the great awakenings of the Bible and shows us how to prepare the way for revival today. Revivals like those led by Moses and by John the Baptist provides us with clear examples of what God can do when His sovereign will is acknowledged and obeyed. Read this book and help prepare the way for revival in your community, your church and most importantly your heart.

Dr Walter C Kaiser Jr. is Colman M. Mockler Distinguished Professor of Old Testament and President of Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary in South Hamilton, Massachusetts. One of the world's premier biblical scholars he is a frequent speaker at conferences and has written more than 30 books.
