Although the Great Awakening at the Cape in 1860 was as powerful as
its precursors in America, Ireland and Wales, its story has never
been fully told until now. Dr. Olea Nel has succeeded in filling a
much needed gap in the literature by describing these events
through the lives of three key players: Andrew Murray, Nicolaas
Hofmeyr and Gottlieb van der Lingen. As the story unfolds, you will
learn: .About the crisis in the Dutch Reformed Church prior to
revival when semi-literate stock farmers believed that God had
called them to subdue the African tribes, not evangelize them. .How
virtually overnight the revival demolished this outlook so that
awakened Christians became people of prayer and mission
enthusiasts. .How Andrew Murray defended the Church against the
onslaught of liberalism through legal battles in the Cape High
Court as well as the Privy Council, London. Dr. Olea Nel was born
in Cape Town, South Africa. After completing her training as a
teacher in Andrew Murray's heartland of Wellington, she relocated
to Australia to further her studies. Besides attaining a Ph.D. in
Linguistics, she also has qualifications in Information Studies and
Theology. She has taught at several tertiary institutions and
presently supports her husband who is Senior Pastor of the
Austral-Asian Church in Canberra, Australia.
