God in Our Midst: Seeking and Receiving Ongoing Revival was published by Servant Publications, Ann Arbor, in 1987. Packer wrote often on revival, which he regarded as one of the strands of Puritan and evangelical history; this short book addresses it directly. Its chapters were not seen for this record.
