No nation on earth has a richer, more colourful, and more
long-standing heritage of evangelical awakenings than Scotland -
yet most people are unfamiliar with its dramatic legacy. Most
historical studies stop at, or before, the Moody & Sankey
Revival of 1873-74. It is commonly assumed that very few genuine
revivals occurred since that date until the Lewis Revival of
1949-53. Tom Lennie thoroughly debunks this idea - showing that
religious awakenings were relatively common in Scotland between
these dates - and provides a comprehensive account of the many
exciting revivals that have taken place throughout Scotland. The
Awakenings in the Outer Hebrides and North East fishing
communities, that had several unique and striking features, are
considered in separate sections. Revivals amongst both children /
students and Pentecostals are also given separate treatment. Of
particular significance is the first comprehensive account of the
1930's 'Laymen's Revival' in Lewis. This fascinating, but
near-forgotten, movement may have been even more powerful and
influential than the later Lewis Revival. "Glory in the Glen" tells
a thoroughly absorbing, and largely untold, story. It is the result
of painstaking research, conducted over more than half-a-decade,
from hundreds of source materials as well as personal interviews.
Much of the material has never before been published.
