Preaching in Revival explores the nature of religious awakening and its relationship to the art of preaching. Keevil identifies the problems of preaching in a post-modern society and specifically addresses what kind of preaching can promote religious awakening during troubling times. A comparative study of the two major traditions of modern Evangelicalism provides a historical perspective on the current state of preaching in America. The study concludes with a discussion of the psychological aspects of revival that will stimulate those seeking personal spiritual nourishment or those working toward the renewal of a larger congregation.
