Notes and Updates

We’re clearing out our shelves and putting some older items on sale -some used and some new.  We’ve made a “Clearance” section in the menu.  Also look under the Audio/Video section because we’ve split some conference sets so you can just buy Heidi Baker, Rolland Baker, and Bill Johnson as individual DVDs.  We’ve been updating the bookstore to add some fresh items as well.

We have updated the reference pages for Jack Coe, J. Gordon Lindsay,   W. V. Grant, and David O. Nunn.  These men were all prominent in the Voice of Healing organization.  We have added pictures of grave markers for each of them.  Many thanks to the kind person who took the pictures and sent them to us!

We’ve added several historic newspaper links to the Research Page.  Proquest has the largest newspapers (NY. LA, etc) but you cannot subscribe directly to them.  They only work with libraries and institutions.  Check with your local library to see which (if any) of the Proquest papers they have a subscription to.

People have asked how to get notifications of updates on the the site.   Here’s an easy way to do it.  Look at the column on the right side of the screen.  You will see a list called Meta:  one of the options is RSS

1.) Click on the RSS link

2.) A Box will pop up that says “Subscribe With Live Bookmark”

3.) Folder: Either leave as Bookmarks Toolbar if you want the new link on your toolbar or change to Bookmarks Menu if you just want it on your menu.

4.) Press the subscribe button

Voila!  You now have a link which shows the titles of the last several updates automatically.  You don’t have to log into the Blog or the site to find out what’s happening.

We have added quite a bit more information on Seymour based on the two best known histories about Seymour’s life.

1.) For Such A Time As This The Story of Bishop William J. Seymour and the Azusa Street Revival,  Doctoral Dissertation by Douglas J. Nelson University of Birmingham, England May 1981.

2.) The Life and Ministry of William J. Seymour and a history of the Azusa Street Revival, by Larry E. Martin.

We have striven to make this site free to use and advertising free as well.  Thousands of hours have led to the development of this material. If you have been blessed using this site we ask that you would consider making a donation to help support the work.  We have added a donation button to the front page. Even a few dollars can make a big difference.

Thank you in advance for your help.

As we’re working on the Revival Links page we have come across several online books that are now available for Asa Mahan and we’ve added them to the reference section under his biography. We’ve also located a signature and added that as well.

We’ve been adding links to the reference section under people’s biographies, as well as continuing to add to the historical revival books and articles link on the main page.

The most significant include a major biography published in 2000 for Smith Wigglesworth and “Leaves of Healing Volume 49″ for John Alexander Dowie.  If you’ve ever wanted to get an idea of what the “Leaves of Healing” magazine was like this will show you, as it includes several issue within the volume.  We’ve added a few contemporary articles about Dowie as well.

We’ve added new reference links for Charles Cullis, Henry B. Wilson, R. A. Torrey, Phoebe Palmer, and Aimee Semple McPherson.

We’ve added a new link right on the main index page called “Revival Books.”  We’ll be adding to this list over the next week or so.  This provides a list of free books about historic revivals and revivalists.

Although William Seymour was not a healing evangelist his legacy to Pentecostal history and churches  is unquestionable.  We’ve added a biography and references for him on this site.  We’ll be adding more books in the bookstore about Seymour and Azusa Street as well.
