These women were there as the Azusa Street Revival exploded a new spirituality onto the American religious scene and they all made significant contributions to the birth and early spread of the Pentecostal movement. Yet, when the story of one of the most important events of modern Christian history is told, many of their names are never heard so they have never received recognition they deserve. This expanded volume of my earlier work is an attempt to continue to correct this oversight.

The Spirit of the Lord calls on Christians within Renewal traditions to examine the relationship between personal and social holiness and encourages pastors and leaders to draw on our biblical heritage and appreciation for the authority of Scripture, the witness of Spirit-filled forefathers and mothers, and the empowerment of the Holy Spirit to engage the critical issues of injustice facing the contemporary church and society.
