Christian Focus

Tom Lennie's book, Glory in the Glen, is concerned with Revival in Scotland. When this subject comes up, most folk think about the Lewis and Harris awakening of 1949-53. The startling thing about this book is its widespread nature, the variety of the locations and the periods involved. There were revivals all over the land, not only in remote or rural places but in industrial areas like Motherwell, Greenock and Glasgow; not only at times about which much has already been written but during unexpected periods. At present I'm reading "Glory in the Glen" for a second time and I continue to be surprised, thrilled and to give glory to our God who does wonderful things. The period he has chosen on this occasion is 1880 to 1940. I look forward to reading more, much more.

I have just finished reading Glory in the Glen what a book what a wonderful dedication to writing such balanced detail, I recommend this book to anyone who is looking for accuracy, and honesty. Without a doubt, in my 60 years as a Christian this is definately the best record of Revivals in two hundred years an insight into how God brought unity amongst all peoples within the walls of Denominationalism for the glory of God, The Holy Spirit bringing Unity about by working with Believers and having His way in and through them without the need to hold a Board Meeting with men.
