EARLY PENTECOSTAL REVIVALS: Azusa And Beyond (1906-1940) follows the dramatic growth of the Pentecostal movement in the decades after the Azusa Street Revival. Written by Paul D. Dugas and edited by Dennis McCreery, this historical work chronicles powerful revivals, Holy Ghost outpourings, divine healings, and the spread of Apostolic faith across North America and beyond.
Through the experiences of influential ministers such as Frank J. Ewart, Andrew D. Urshan, and Leamon T. Reynolds, readers witness the challenges faced by early Pentecostal believers, including opposition, persecution, imprisonment, and social rejection. The book highlights the determination of those who carried the message of Acts 2:38 and the baptism of the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in tongues.
A major focus is the emergence and spread of the Oneness (Jesus Name) message following the 1913 Arroyo Seco camp meeting, including its impact on the developing Pentecostal movement and the divisions that followed. The book also examines doctrinal controversies, spiritual warfare, divine deliverance, and the importance of humility and faithfulness in ministry.
Rich with historical accounts and personal testimonies, this volume offers a unique look into the struggles, victories, and spiritual passion that helped shape modern Pentecostalism and the worldwide proclamation of the gospel in the Name of Jesus.
