Notes and Updates Notes and updates on healingandrevival.com

James R. Dunn was a noted evangelist from West Virginia who was associated with the Voice of Healing organization.  We’ve made a first pass on his biography.

We’ve added a link and small article about Maria Woodworth-Etter being in Greensburg, Indiana where a church was established in 1887 out of revival meetings she held there.  Most of the churches that came from W-E meetings did not succeed as the revival atmosphere would disappear when she left town.

We’ve added several books to the reference page under E, E. Byrum’s biography.  His classic book titled “Divine Healing for the Body and Soul”  is one of the newly added items. The  Church of God, Anderson Indiana was a revival movement in the late 1800’s which included Divine Healing as a foundational belief.  Byrum himself stepped outside the denominational box to work with F. F. Bosworth, although he received little support within his own leadership structure. Byrum had a passion for healing and pursued it, even when it cost him to do so.

We  have found and interesting book on the history of healing and the Church of God.  The title is “Who Healeth All Thy Diseases: Health, Healing, and Holiness in the Church of God Reformation Movement” (Revitalization: Explorations in World Christian Movements Pentecostal and Charismatic Studies) by Michael S. Stephens (Jul 7, 2008)  One of the things this book mentions is a link between E. E. Byrum and F. F. Bosworth which we were previously unaware of.

Unfortunately our distributor does not carry this book but Amazon has limited quantities if you are interested in following up on this topic.

We’ve made some updates to Allen’s biography We’ve also added birth, marriage, and death  records for Allen and his wife.  Finally we’ve added a photo of  Allen’s grave plot location (since there is no headstone) to the reference page under his biography.

We’ve added a rendition of the healing testimony of Carrie Judd through the prayers of Sarah Mix.  This was published in November 1879.  This article can be found on the reference pages for both Mix and Carrie Judd Montgomery under their biographies.

Plough publishing has notified us that a new Johann Christoph Blumhardt books is available online.  It is titled “Thy Will Be Done: Sickness, Faith, and the God Who Heals”  You will find a link to the e-book and other Blumhardt books on the reference page under his biography.  Thanks Plough Publishing!

We have located the cemetery where Sara Musgrove is buried in Bristol, NH.  The information can be found on the reference page under her biography.  We also have made a minor change to her biography.
