In addition he has thoroughly studied revivals of the past, highlighting the differences and the similarities to what is happening today.

As always, John White remains thoroughly biblical as he handles many controversial topics. The result is a book full of pracitcal wisdom and remarkable insight with conclusions that are fresh and surprising.
