More DescriptionColin Reed not only records the East African Revival and its link to Australia, but provides many pointers for those who want to see revival in our time. He identifies and explores the key factors behind this Christian Revival that began in Rwanda in the 1930s before spreading throughout the entire East African region. This thorough and perceptive exploration provides insight into the Revival. It also explores connections to Australian missionaries serving there and their varied responses to the Revival. The influence of the English Keswick Movement in shaping the Revival is also examined. Less well known is the impact made by visits of East African Revival leaders in the 1950s and 60s to Aboriginal Christian leaders in Northern Australia.
