Spirit of Revival, The Story of J G Govan and the Faith Mission by Isabella Govan.
This book was written for the Faith Mission pilgrims who loved John George Govan, his message of full salvation and His Master. It was also written for those who were interested about this man that many affectionately called “The Chief.” Some readers may be disappointed, because they are convinced that no words could picture the Chief. But this picture, drawn by his daughter even though it may be “poorly drawn”, still may inspire many.
The author deals more fully with the personality of J G Govan and the unfolding of God’s power and purpose through him. Where ever possible the book has kept to Govan’s own words for there was a “tang” about them that reminds the reader of the breeziness of a sailor and the downrightness of a soldier.
This book was three years in the making, using his own diaries, work and letters which he and others had treasured so this book gives an insight into the man and the message he faithfully and fervently proclaimed.
