Thou shalt not return, 'cause “the West is the best.” And now after two rambling years comes the final and greatest adventure, the climactic battle to kill the false being within and victoriously conclude the spiritual revolution.

“We need a quickening of faith; faith in the power of the God of Pentecost to convict and convert three thousand in a day.
