From the multi-million bestselling authors of Experiencing God comes Fresh Encounter, a book for church laypersons and leaders that illuminates God’s pattern and plan for personal revival and spiritual awakening.

Greatly revised from the original 1996 edition with forty percent new material, Fresh Encounter looks to examples of revival throughout the Bible to better understand what it will take to bring about true and lasting spiritual renewal in the world today. Among the new topics here that were not covered in the first edition are:

* Why does revival tarry?

* Corporate hindrances to revival

* The role of prayer in revival

* Maintaining revival

Top Highlights

“Sixth, revival stimulates an attitude of willing obedience to whatever God requires.” (source)

“Fifth, when revival occurs, people are filled with the Holy Spirit.” (source)

“Yet true biblical revival deals specifically with one's relationship to God. Only one thing ultimately quenches our relationship with Him, and that is sin. Sins of idolatry, commission, and omission are lethal to spiritual vitality. Sin has only one remedy, and that is repentance. Without repentance there is no revival.” (source)

“We must review what Scripture says pleases God. Looking back over our spiritual pilgrimage will reveal if we have wandered away from a relationship with God into service for God.” (source)

“But those who experience true fellowship with God long for those moments of joyful communion with Him” (source)
