| | Great Awakenings in American History Part 2 by J. Edwin Orr
Topic: Revival History | | Description: This special series was delivered at Lake Avenue Church in Pasadena, California in January of 1976. Orr gives a very informative overview of the beginnings of the third great awakening in American history (which is largely overlooked), starting around 1830, and went on for 12 years. He recounted the events preceding Charles Finney's famous revival in Rochester, New York, in that same year. He explained how 100,000 people were saved as a result of that revival when the town only had a population of 10,000. Orr also defused how false reports of people barking took place on the Frontier, and recounted how greatly the Hawaiian Islands were affected.

| | Great Awakenings in American History Part 3 by J. Edwin Orr
Topic: Revival History | | Description: This special series was delivered at Lake Avenue Church in Pasadena, California in January of 1976. Orr speaks on the awakening that started in 1857 with a prayer meeting in New York City with one man and ended up with the whole city packed out with prayer meetings in churches and auditoriums. It spread all over the nation, so glorious that D.L. Moody said at the end of his life (1899) that we wished to see that happen again in the Church. Orr relates how this awakening and conversions spread to Ireland and South Africa. He recounts an interesting event with Andrew Murray trying to bring order to a prayer meeting! Out of this revival came D. L. Moody, William Booth, Charles Spurgeon and others. The main theme is how through prayer people encountered the presence of the Lord. "In times of revival, sinners come running to the Lord," Orr said. Indeed they did!
