Revivals and evangelistic thrusts within Christianity since the 17th century, especially noting their distinctive character, causes and effects, theological underpinnings, and the unique role of the Holy Spirit in promoting revival. What Christians did to bring birth to the revivals and why they could not sustain it. These norms, issues and questions will be examined from biblical and theological perspectives in an effort to arrive at a viable and practical model that can be applied within a contemporary ecclesiastical and personal context.
Discussions will also include how to pastor a revival and work with God as He brings change and revitalization to His church are also covered.
