The Church Ought to Pray for Revival

In this podcast, I take about 1 hour to go through professor Herman Hanko's article Ought the Church to Pray for Revival, and answer it. By doing so I take aim at the views of the late John Robbins and others who are opposed to the idea of a Great Awakening such as R. Scott Clark from Westminster Seminary West. I have known about Hanko's article for years, but since I am teaching a history of American Revivals, I could not dismiss it forever. I defend the Puritan teachings on the antecedents to conversion, the men that were greatly used in revival, and finally answer the objection that the pastors looked at the "conversion experience" as the test for conversion instead of the fruits of conversion itself.
