Why Revival Tarries

As Timely a Call to Revival As It Was When First Published Four Decades Ago

A. W. Tozer said, "Those who know Leonard Ravenhill will recognize in him the religious specialist, the man sent from God not to carry on the conventional work of the church, but to beard the priests of Baal on their own mountaintop, to shame the careless priest on the altar, to face the false prophet and warn the people who are being led astray by him."

Leonard Ravenhill became one of the twentieth century's greatest authorities on revival, and the heart of his message to the Church is contained in these pages. His message is drastic, fearless, and often radical. Appalled by the disparity between the New Testament Church and what passes for the Church today, Ravenhill gives a no-compromise call to the principles of biblical revival.
