The Twentieth Century Has Witnessed Periodic Revivals Comparable To The Awakenings Of The Eighteenth And Nineteenth Centuries. And Yet, Many Of The Places And Players Of These Reawakenings Have Been Overlooked Or Neglected By The Chroniclers Of North American Church History. A Survey Of 20Thcentury Revival Movements In North America Attempts To Set The Record Straight. It Offers A Concise And Useful Survey Of The Major Currents Of Revival That Have Swept Over This Continent Since The Turn Of The Century. As The Final Decade Of This Century Approaches It Is Appropriate That Historian Richard Riss Chart The Course Of Twentiethcentury Revival On This Continent And Record The People, Places, And Events That Have Shaped The Modern American Church.Names Like William J. Seymour Or Maria B. Woodworthetter; Places Like Azusa Street Or North Battleford, Saskatchewan; And Events Like The Forest Home Briefing Conference Or The Latter Rain Revival Might Not Be As Familiar As Billy Graham, Oral Roberts, Or The Jesus Movement, But Each Has Played A Significant Role In Keeping The Streams Of Revival Flowing.The Impact Of These Often Lesserknown Figures And Events Is Tremendous. For Example, William J. Seymour Was A Key Figure In Early Pentecostalism, Which Has Become One Of The Most Rapidly Growing Segments Of Modern Christianity. Also, College Awakenings At Bethel College In St. Paul, Minnesota, Northern Baptist Theological Seminary, North Park College, And Wheaton College In Late 1949 And Early 1950 Received Nationwide Press Coverage And Sparked College Revivals Throughout The Country. A Decade Later, In 1960, Dennis Bennett'S Experience Of The Holy Spirit In Van Nuys, California, Would Mark The Beginning Of A Tremendous Outpouring Of The Spirit, And For Many, Came To Represent The Start Of The Charismatic Renewal Movement.
