Revival and Religion Since 1700
Revival And Religion Since
1700
    All truly religious
    movements are informed by
    a search for spiritual
    renewal, often signalled
    by an attempt to return
    to what are seen as the
    original, undiluted
    values of earlier times.
    Elements of this process
    are to be seen in the
    history of almost all
    modern religious
    revivals, both inside
    and outside the
    mainstream denominations.
