Many today may be discouraged by the condition of Christianity in Scotland, while unaware of its powerful legacy. Following on from Glory in the Glen and Land of Many Revivals, Scotland Ablaze concludes Tom Lennie’s compelling trilogy on Scottish revival movements. Lennie focuses on the inspiring period from 1858–79 in which much of Scotland was evangelically awakened, affecting every Scottish county. In three parts, Lennie guides us meticulously through the origins of the revival and each area affected, then the immediate impact of the revival and finally the beginnings of its lasting global legacy, reaching countries such as Britain, America, Australia and South Africa. Through this deeply encouraging and fascinating read, not only may we see the power and impact of God’s work in our history, but we may excitedly anticipate His miraculous work in our future.
