About the author

arthur wallis

Arthur Wallis (1922-1988)was an itinerant preacher and bible teacher. His ministry had a particular emphasis on revival, prayer, the work of the Holy Spirit, and the ‘restoration' of the church. He had deeply impacted by accounts of the Revival that took place on the Isle of Lewis in 1949 which he visited. His book In the Day of Thy Power (Christian Literature Crusade: 1956) was the fruit of this visit and his subsequent studies. He wrote some eleven books on themes promoting the Christian life, and traveled widely (in particular to the USA, Australia and New Zealand).

Shortly before his death, he asked for no other memorial than “fruit in people's lives”. Those who had the privilege of knowing him testify to the lasting impact that Arthur made upon them. His vision for revival is as fresh and as relevant now as it ever was. His book, God's Chosen Fast (Kingsway: 1968) is the acknowledged classic on the topic of fasting, whilst his book The Radical Christian (Kingsway: 1981) which was his most difficult to write continues to call the Christian to live the dynamic life of Jesus.
