They used to happen every summer. Some of them were held in small, one-room churches. But the really big ones came to town like a circus, with large crews of men unloading big tents from horse-drawn wagons, painting huge signs that warned “Repent!”
Everybody came. It was the time of year to get your sins forgiven and to pray for backsliders.
Bute the once-a-year revival wasn’t enough. Too often it became just another part of the community’s round of life.
Now we wonder if revival can be a part of our lives at all. If it can, we must realize that revival is a way of life not tied to yearly tent meetings, a renewing process which can lead us to a fuller understanding of our God and our fellow men. [A note printed on the inside of the gatefold sleeve]
