  • George Whitefield: God’s Anointed Servant in the Great Revival of the Eighteenth Century (Arnold Dallimore)

    Whitefield’s is the story of one of the most powerful preachers of all history, who may have  reached more people with the gospel than anyone since the Apostle Paul. George Whitefield’s life has been described as a consuming fire that burned without end. In the wake of his preaching, revival swept across the British Isles, and the Great Awakening transformed America’s colonies.

    This founder of Methodism yielded his leadership to John Wesley rather than risking the split of the movement, thus revealing his fervent commitment to the Gospel of Christ rather than his personal hopes or plans.

  • The Life and Times of George Whitefield (Robert Philip)

    The best account of Whitefield’s life and ministry in a single volume.

    Drawing on the testimonies of those who had a personal knowledge of the man, and from Whitefield’s own journals, letters and sermons, the author has grasped the great lesson of the evangelist’s life, namely: that it is the Holy Spirit who makes preachers.

    Robert Philip is not an uncritical biographer, but is ready to note weaknesses and failures that admirers of Whitefield have sometimes passed over. But the outstanding feature of his work is the way in which he allows his subject to speak for himself. He seems to have absorbed all that Whitefield ever said and wrote, and his selection brings us into direct contact with the man. Thus Philip can truthfully write: “This work is chiefly from Whitefield’s own pen. So far as it is mine, it is in his own spirit.”

  • The Power of Prayer: The New York Revival of 1858 (Samuel Prime)

    The Autumn of 1857 saw New York in the midst of financial failure which ruined many of its one million people. J.W. Alexander, returning there from Europe, found ‘a pall of mourning over every house’. But, unlike other times of national disaster this era was accompanied by a renewed spirit of prayer to be followed by a manifestation of the ‘marvellous lovingkindness’ of God as thousands were brought from worldly sorrow to the possession of everlasting riches and life in Christ.

    Samuel Prime’s work, written with the aid of other ministers, gives a first hand record of the year which saw America’s last national awakening- a revival which, noiseless and unexpected, was in striking contrast with the idea that evangelism is primarily a case of human effort. In 1858 the great truths ‘made exceedingly prominent’ were ‘the influence of the Holy Spirit and free salvation through the righteousness of the Lord Jesus Christ’.

  • The Korean Pentecost and the Sufferings Which Followed

    The Korean Pentecost shows what God can do when His people take Him at His Word.”
    — J. G. Vos

    Back in print for the first time since 1977, this is a remarkable account of the first 60 years of the church in Korea (mainly North Korea). William Blair (1876–1970), in his first term of missionary service, was at the center of the great revival of 1907, and his account of this and the events leading up to it forms the first part of the book. Blair includes a thrilling description of how the gospel first came to Korea.

    His son-in-law Bruce Hunt (1903–92) then continues the story. Born in Pyongyang (capital of North Korea), he shows how the revival was followed by a baptism of suffering under the Japanese and Communists. During his 48 years of missionary service in Korea, Hunt personally knew many of the Korean Christian martyrs.

  • Memoir and Remains of Robert Murray M’Cheyne (Andrew Bonar)

    Few biographical books have been more loved than this one. First published in 1844, it has sold well over 1 million copies, because few books have had such a wide influence on the lives of God’s people, to elevate our aspirations, because of the passionate pursuit of the service of God in the brief, zealous life of M’Cheyne. Includes many of his letters, sermons, brief diary entries and writings, and hymns he composed.

    Testimonies to its usefulness were received from many lands and Christians of differing theological persuasions have testified to the blessing experiences through reading it. ‘This is one of the best and most profitable volumes ever published’, said C.H. Spurgeon. ‘The memoir of such a man ought surely to be in the hands of every Christian and certainly every preacher of the Gospel.’ Few books contain such variety and wealth of spiritual matter between their covers. As well as the biography portion of the book, covering 174 of its 648 pages, the work contains a good selection of letters, sermons, other writings and sacred songs.
