One Hundred and Twenty Years of Revival

 

In 1918 Billy Sunday holds a revival in New York City where 100,000 people are converted, hitting the Sawdust Trail. During that revival a young couple, Grace and Tom, meet and get married. The Billy Sunday story is told through their eyes in Sunday in New York. A daughter of that couple, Liz Jefferson, becomes involved in the 1949 Los Angeles crusade which brings Billy Graham to national prominence. She meets a young ministerial student, Jim Freeborn, and they get engaged. The story of Graham’s Canvas Cathedral is seen through their eyes in Crusade. In the 1970s, during the Cold War Era, that couple, the Freeborns, start a church in Montana. A young evangelist holds a meeting for them where only one person gets saved. Politics, Rodeo, and Southern Gospel bring Ron and Penny together in Revival in the Rockies. The one boy who gets saved in Montana, Ernst Edwards, grows up to lead a worldwide revival in the twenty-first century, a future, media-driven revival. Megachurch comes to life through the story of his daughter Serenity and his assistant Benjamin who are tasked with finding Edward’s successor--and in the process find each other.
