First, the church must change. We have allowed ourselves to drift into our culture, no longer a transforming counterculture. We merely reflect the value systems and worldview of society and cannot be an agent of change. Many people find the church institutionalized, irrelevant, and inconsequential.

Dr. Bob Griffin comprehensively details how revival always happens and how it will happen again. He points out key components to historic revival, including:

• Passionate prayer and repentance
• A return to the priority of worship
• A period of radical social reform or transformation

Although this spiritual awakening was common to practically the whole of the English speaking world, probably nowhere else at the time were the facts of the matter more carefully sifted and documented than in Scotland. These first-hand accounts, which have long been unavailable and neglected, provide the main sources for the substance of this volume. In this book the author has made a comprehensive, detailed and not uncritical survey of one of the most important eras in Scottish religious history.
