In the year 1904 a revival like the world has never seen before broke out in Wales. While it started in small, rural communities, the news of God moving in power blazed throughout the whole world and sparked countless other revivals, and continues to have an incredible impact today. Led by the young Evan Roberts, who spent months seeking God for four hours a day, starting a 1 a.m. for revival, an incredible 100,000 people were brought to the feet of Jesus in less than a year.

Madame Jeanne Guyon was one of the most important figures of the 1600s-1700s, not only in France, but throughout Europe. The Reformation had ended nearly 100 years prior, but much of the world continued to believe that the common people could only approach God through priests. Mystics like Madame Guyon, Brother Lawrence, and Miguel de Molinos taught that each individual could come to God through the intimacy of personal prayer. This teaching branded them as heretics.

Gone are the days of legendary men like Daniel Boone. There are still heroes, yes, of course, but not like those early pioneers who risked everything to go to lands completely unknown and untamed in search of a home. These brave men and women went literally into the darkest hearts of land and faced constant death on every side in an incredibly unique period of time.

A. A. Allen is one of the most controversial figures from the Voices of Healing movement in the 1950s. While having a thriving ministry that produced thousands of salvations and incredible supernatural healings, he was found dead in his hotel room from alcohol poisoning. Many have questioned how a man who struggled with a sin that ultimately killed him could have genuinely been used by God in ministry. How could he have truly moved in miracles and the power of God? And yet we have seen the grace of God on the lives of many movers and shakers in the kingdom who struggled with sin.

Men and women of God have been studying the life of Paul the Apostle since the dawn of the New Covenant. Having written 13 (or perhaps 14 if you include Hebrews) of the 27 books of the New Testament, his writings, breathed by the Holy Spirit, are vital to Christians everywhere. His boldness in proclaiming the truths of the New Covenant was not only revolutionary, but caused him to live in constant threat of death.

There is no greater story in the history of humanity than that of the undying love between the Lord Jesus and His people. The most famous story in eternity will always be how the Son of God came and died a horrible death on the cross for our sins. However, there have been countless thousands of men and women who have reciprocated that love, and have walked to certain death in order to tell the lost about the lover of their souls. They faced raining clouds of arrows and spears, shipwrecks, starvation and hunger, dark jungles and slavery, and more than could ever be listed here.

Adoniram Judson was unique in his time. He and his wife were among the first missionaries to be sent out from the United States, and his entire ministry was a series of intense mountains and valleys. Adoniram showed a level of commitment and willingness to push through suffering and hard times far beyond what the vast majority of Christians would be willing to endure. His legacy as a pioneer on multiple levels is one that will last through this earth’s remaining time and into the heavenly library. Despite unimaginable hardships, Judson's work bore fruit that continues to impact lives today.

When a group of young boys gather together on a yacht for what was supposed to be a simple holiday trip, one of the group makes a horrible mistake that sends them drifting out onto the open and stormy ocean.

Frank Bartleman is largely known for being an eye witness and historian of the legendary Azusa Street Revival that began in a small church in California in 1906, and took the world by storm. However, he was much more than that

Even for the religious, life is full of questions: What is faith? Can my life be more satisfying? How can I deepen my walk with Christ? What does it mean to be happy? These bubble and boil underneath the surface of our everyday life. And though we ignore them, we know they point us to realms of...

Charles Spurgeon, the Prince of Preachers, pastored the Metropolitan Tabernacle for 38 years, and spent many of those years in a state of powerful revival. Multitudes came from all over the world to hear him speak. His average Sunday morning services hosted up to six thousand people listening intently to the Word of the Lord. While it is fairly common today to see churches of thousands, in some places there seems to be one on every street corner, back in Spurgeon’s day, it was nothing short of miraculous.

John G. Lake is famous for his healing ministry and his boldness. The fact that he offered people money if they could come to his healing rooms and leave sick, and never had to pay it.

His understanding of healing was unparalleled, and yet simple. He realized that there are two pillars of healing every believer should understand: The New Covenant, and our relationship with the Holy Spirit.

There’ll be a work for you to do when you get older".
