Revival & Revivalism by Iain H. Murray

A very nice copy of the hardcover book, "Revival & Revivalism: The Making and Marring of American Evangelism 1750-1858" by Iain H. Murray. Marrying careful historical research to popular and relevant presentation, Revival and Revivalism traces the spiritually epoch-making events of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries through the eyes of those who lived at their centre. Fundamental to the book's thesis is a rejection of the frequent identification of 'revival' with 'revivalism'. The author demonstrates that a common understanding of the New Testament idea of revival was prevalent in most denominations throughout the period 1750-1858. Revivalism, on the other hand, is different both in its origin and in its tendencies. 455 pages with Expedited Shipping!
