IT is one of the most striking instances of modern progress that the missions of women are beginning to be so clearlyrecognized It is not long, since a woman who dared to step beyond the circle of home and social duties was looked upon with timid wonder by her own sex, and disapprobation by the other; but in this more enlightened age her usefulness isreadily acknowledged. England holds up her Florence Nightingale, that courageous, noble woman, whose name is heard with love and reverence through the whole civilized world. Can we not, in America, point out our bright stars in the galaxy of heroines?

"Here is a region rare and radiant. Hunt all merry England for vales of peace; search all New England for valleys of plenty, and there will not come to your finding such reaches of beauteous landscape. Gently descending from the Cumberland plateau, which forms the western flank of the Kentucky mountain region, are numberless winsome hills and entrancing valleys. In the heart of all this wondrous garden is the bluegrass' country. On its breast, like a noble rose or a lustrous jewel, rests theroyal county of Bourbon."Its soil, like that of the far valley of Guines, is exhaustless in opulence. The forests are mighty sentinels of peace. Its pasturage is the envy of a continent. Its streams are as ribbons of silver flashing from velvet of green. Its sinuous highways are poems in thoroughfares. Its fountains and streams, unkempt by man, leap murmurously from a myriad rocks and roadside coverts.Its fine stone walls and rail fences are idyls to pastoral toil.

The Cane Ridge Meeting-House

The law of tithing is plainly written in the Scriptures. There is no hint in the Bible that it has become obsolete, and there is no better or more reasonable way to meet the financial obligations of the church, than for each individual member of the church to perform his or her duty to bear their part in the support of the church and carrying forward the work of our Lord in thespread of the gospel.

INTRODUCTION 
In a day when unprecedented numbers of people have a form of religion while at the same time the church seems unable to stem the rising tide of degeneracy that threatens the land, the question might be raised: Why this paradox? Should not the church have influence for righteousness in proportion to her numbers? However one may seek to answer this question, it is obvious that what we need is not more religion, but more power. In short, we need real revival. 
For this reason, the account after spontaneous revivals at Asbury College in 1950 and 1958 is very timely and provocative of thought. It shows what God can do when given a chance. The particular manifestations of these visitations of God may differ from others, for no two revivals are exactly alike. However, basic principles are reflected here which recur in all genuine spiritual awakenings. The sense of need, effectual prayer, confession and repentance, imparting of new life, infilling of the Holy Spirit and compulsion to tell the good news to others; these are relevant to every age. 
The authors of these stories are well-qualified to speak, having experienced the events which they describe. Henry C. James, an alumnus, was himself converted during the revival of 1950; and Paul Rader, student leader on the Asbury campuses, was an active participant in the 1958 awakening. They are thus enabled through their close association with these revivals to transmit much of the moving drama of those days. 
It is my hope that those who read these pages will catch something of the spirit which motivated its writing. But even more, I trust that many will be inspired to pray, to work and to believe God for revival today. The power of God is the same. The conditions for revival have not changed. We are the only variable factors in experiencing greater things than described in these pages. Trusting that this book will be used to open our eyes, I join the Psalmist in praying: "Wilt thou not revive us again; that thy people may rejoice in thee? " (Psalms 85:6).

It was as his name was mentioned in prayer at our family altar that I received my personal call to the Christian ministry. Brief acquaintance with Morrison during his intermittent visits to the campus while I was a student at Asbury Theological Seminary increased my interest in knowing more about this man. The two full-length books purporting to tell his life’s story left me feeling as though I had been presented torn fragments of a picture, many parts of which were still missing. The discovery, in 1946, of Morrison’s diaries opened the door of research in an effort to answer my questions. This research culminated in a doctoral dissertation, “The Life, Theology, and Influence of Henry Clay Morrison,” presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Oklahoma. The present publication is based entirely upon the previous research. I am greatly indebted to the officials of the Pentecostal Publishing Company, Asbury College, and Asbury Theological Seminary for the many courtesies they have shown me. I also wish to express appreciation to my major professor, Dr. John S. Ezell and to Dr. Alfred B. Sears, also of the history department of the University of Oklahoma. My greatest debt, however, is to my wife, Marjorie MacKellar Wesche. Without her moral support and encouragement both in the original research and now during the period of re-writing, the work could not have been brought to completion. Percival A.

Within the Evangelical Christian position there are also legitimate differences of emphasis with respect to some of these things held in common.  It has frequently been these differing emphases, which have enabled the several Christian denominations to enrich the Church’s understanding of her total message.  Asbury Theological Seminary stands in the mid-stream of historic Christian Evangelicalism.  It also maintains, as its distinctive message, a special emphasis upon the doctrinal principles, which took shape in the eighteenth century in the Wesleyan movement.  As an interdenominational, confessional institution, it believes that these Distinctives are worthy of sharing with the Church Ecumenical.  At the Fortieth Anniversary of Asbury Theological Seminary, it has been thought appropriate to issue this volume, setting forth, with what we hope may be a vivid freshness, four of the Seminary’s doctrinal emphases.  They are: the Wesleyan Doctrine of Sin, the Wesleyan understanding of the Atonement, the Wesleyan Doctrine of the Witness of the Spirit, and the Wesleyan Doctrine of Entire Sanctification.  It is with the hope that these presentations may impress the reader with the contemporary relevance of these Wesleyan distinctives, and with the prayer that they may serve to build Christ’s Church, that this volume is presented as part of an Anniversary Trilogy.
