Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Manual of Revivals: Practical Hints and Suggestions From Histories of Revivals and Biographies of Revivalists
But in churches not a few, the highest and steepest difficulty is of a social kind. Their meetings are largely arranged with a view to attract young people and to maintain social amusements. Reunions, festi vals, fairs, sociables, and all that, succeed each other so rapidly, and with such momentum, that church life vies with the world of fashion in keeping out of the mind all thought about our Christian duties and interests. A revival crossing the track of such a train of festivi ties would be as unwelcome as a fire that is devour ng a railroad bridge.
