The Rejected Blessing: An Untold Story of the Early Days of the Pentecostal Movement

Why is it that the Pentecostal movement today lacks the power of its Azusa Street roots? What teaching served as the foundation of the 1906 Azusa Street Revival, and how is it that most Pentecostals repudiated that foundation less than six years after the revival began? In this all-too-true tale, you'll discover larger-than-life -- and flawed -- men of God, scandalous animosity among Christian brothers, and a contentious prayer challenge in what could be described as a game of spiritual "Russian roulette." The book relates the roles of William J. Seymour, Charles F. Parham, and William H. Durham in the seismic shift which occurred in early Pentecostalism. This groundbreaking look at the nexus of the Holiness and Pentecostal movements explains how one of God's special works of grace became "The Rejected Blessing."
