About this ebook
Jesus once spoke of a time when men would sleep and an enemy would come and sow tares among the wheat. The Renaissance, the Enlightenment, and the Modern Age were just such a time. In this second installment, the reader will learn how signs and wonders played roles in the foundations of nearly every new state church, Free Church, and denomination. How Catholicism countered with its own reformation that included a revival of mysticism, a new army of spiritual soldiers, and the discovery of the New World. How restorationist movements countered the intellectual revolutions of their day with revivals of faith in the supernatural. How a decade-long prayer meeting shaped the future of revivalism affecting both England's Wesleyan Revival and America's First Great Awakening. How the French Revolution replaced Christianity with liberalism as the world's dominant ideology. How many Americans countered this new revolution with a Second Great Awakening. How Phoebe Palmer began the modern Holiness movement and Jeremiah Lanphier launched a worldwide Laymen's Prayer Revival. How many Americans reunited after the Civil War with a series of Holiness Camp Meetings, followed by a similar "Higher Life" movement in Britain, and later, a new stream of American healing ministries.

About the author
Jeff Oliver is the founder and president of Global Wakening—a ministry that is inspiring and equipping a new generation with a supernatural Christian worldview to ignite a global wakening of God’s church. Jeff says, “Suddenly, the 21st-century global church finds itself thrust into the very climate in which the events, triumphs, and opportunities of the New Testament occurred, but we can win our global culture to Christ the same way the early church did—with faith and fearlessness in the face of persecution, loving acts of kindness, and the power and demonstration of the Holy Spirit. All it takes is the fresh, prayerful, united effort of ordinary Christians stirring up the gifts of God that are in them.” (2 Tim 1:6-7)Jeff, and his wife, Faith, currently reside in Charlotte, North Carolina where they enjoy traveling, speaking, and spending time with their grandchildren and West Highland Terrier, Gracie Lou. Their website is www.globalwakening.com
