Stewart, Duncan Campbell were men who combined a passion for God, a zeal for practical holiness, and a longing for real God-sent revival as well as a deep respect for the sovereignty of God. The missing element is that, as far as I know, there was not a lot of expository preaching from these men.Garry Weaverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03576501820657549682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26181288.post-1150363766271527062006-06-15T04:29:00.000-05:002006-06-15T04:29:00.000-05:00Terry,Dallimoore's bio of Whitefield is on my "gon...Terry,<BR/>Dallimoore's bio of Whitefield is on my "gonna read" list, but I haven't read it yet.
