Samuel Prime's work gives a first-hand record of the year which saw America's last national awakening - a revival which was in striking contrast with the idea that evangelism is primarily a case of human effort.
Imagine if revival came to America like it did in 1857-58...America had a population of 30 million people and was steamrolling its way through the industrial revolution. Life was good, if hectic and a little crazy. Churches were everywhere but there were fortunes to be made and a new continent to explore...Then, in a non-descript church on the corner of Williams and Fulton Street in the financial district of New York City a man was called to pray. Jeremiah Lanphier began urging other New York City businessmen to pray. First a handful, then a dozen, then a hundred. Soon the Spirit of God swept across the city, the state, and the whole country in revival!The prayer meetings were vivid with testimonies, requests for souls were sent to lay leaders who ran the one-hour meetings briskly but respectfully. There was an air of sobriety, of worship, of awe. God was pouring out from heaven. He was answering prayer.Two million souls were saved in two years. All denominations. Urban and rural. North and south. Then the civil war began.This was the 4th Great Revival and the last one in America. What will God do next?
