A Time to Build: Revival, The Church, and God's Eternal Purpose

Revival is not God’s ultimate goal for His people… the biblical church is God’s ultimate goal!

And we live in a season when God is calling the body of Christ to return to its New Testament roots.
This book is a prophetic declaration that helps us hear that call and put it into practical action. Every Christian who hungers for the “more” of God’s larger plan — especially those with Pentecostal, Charismatic, or revival backgrounds — should read this book.

In A Time to Build, Bob Gladstone offers clarity on the church’s identity in light of modern revivals and God’s overall plan for history. During seasons of outpouring we experience divine visitation, yet God’s purpose is to move from visitation to habitation.
How do we do that? We must build the house for God to inhabit!

The western church needs this habitation like never before. We can no longer afford “church” to be a Sunday event or consumer-driven corporation. It is time to shift church back to its biblical identity.

It is time for a Jesus Movement.
It is time to build the House of the Lord.
