"It's hard to put to words how excited this book makes me. I have pastored for years . . . Read this book, and get ready." -- Online reviewer "Come, Holy Spirit" is a common prayer, but few pastors are trained what to do if God answers with unusual power. Spiritual outbreaks at Asbury University and other places show that the cycle of American revivals is rolling around again. Only God can ignite revival, but he uses pastors to grow and guard it.

Don't wait to prepare for revival until after it hits your church. Read Pastoring Revival today!
Autorenporträt
Best known internationally as author of PASTORING: THE NUTS AND BOLTS, in print in seven languages, David Wentz has a passion for helping people connect with God and make a difference. Combining 38 years as a pastor with a first career in engineering and graduate degrees from three very different seminaries (charismatic, mainstream, and Wesleyan-evangelical), he expresses God's truth in ways everyone can appreciate.Raised in the Episcopal church, Dr. Wentz has also been part of Nazarene, Pentecostal Holiness, and non-denominational congregations. As a Methodist pastor he served small, large, and multicultural churches in rural, small-town, suburban, and urban settings, served as a regional church consultant in the Maryland - D.C. area, and led workshops for pastors internationally. In 2015 he retired to the rural Ozarks, where he writes, works in God's great outdoors, and oversees Doing Christianity, Inc., a small non-profit devoted to equipping pastors in developing and minority-Christian countries.In 1974, David married his college sweetheart, Paula. They have five children and fourteen grandchildren.The book of Ezekiel describes David's calling. Twenty-five hundred years ago God called Ezekiel to teach God's ways and proclaim the Holy Spirit, the one who revives dry bones and forms them into a dwelling for God and a source of living water that heals nations.Bones are still dry today. God still wants to dwell among his people. Nations still need healing. And people still need to be taught God's ways and be moved by God's Spirit. That's what David calls "Doing Christianity."
