Has your relationship with the Lord lost its freshness? Has it grown a little stale? If so, James MacDonald’s new book, Downpour, offers some much needed guidance. Times of refreshing are available from the Lord if we are willing to cooperate with the work of the Holy Spirit in our lives as He labors to ignite a personal revival in each of our hearts. MacDonald identifies and explains five essential ingredients if genuine revival is going to happen. We must learn to see God on the throne, sin in the mirror, self in the dirt, Christ on the cross, and the Spirit in control. This book is well written. MacDonald is articulate and concise, easy to follow, and enjoyable to read. He purposely avoided lots of illustrations (this is explained in the introduction) and while this is often detrimental, it seemed to streamline the flow of thought and increase the readability. Its primary strength is derived from its Scriptural base. MacDonald does not present his opinions and preferences; he turns to the Bible and calls us to obey its teachings. I give this book a strong recommendation. Many in the Church who have been Christians for a while would describe their faith as being a little dull, predictable, and even uninteresting. And while this is unfortunate, it is not incurable. MacDonald helps us refocus on essential biblical truth. Pick up this book, read it thoroughly, and then pass it on to a friend.
