Nine O'Clock in the Morning

An Episcopal priest, a spiritual wilderness, and a couple who shared the fire that led to a longed-for renewal.

This now classic story tells how the Charismatic Movement began and swept into churches across America. Father Dennis is still hailed as one of the central figures in the early renewal movement. Nine O'Clock in the Morning is Father Dennis's testimony that God can and will release His power to His people if we allow Him to truly become the King of our lives.

When, in 1960, Father Dennis Bennett announced to his congregation that he had experienced a new outpouring of God's Spirit... the renewal movement can be said to have begun. —1973 Yearbook of the Encyclopedia Britannica

Today's generation needs the power of the Holy Spirit to protect them from a secular culture which promotes life without God. Nine O'Clock in the Morning, Dennis Bennett's classic work on the Baptism in the Holy Spirit, will change the lives of young and old alike. I highly recommend it. —Paul F. Crouch, President, Trinity Broadcasting Network

I commend Nine O'Clock in the Morning to you as a testimony to what God is doing today. —John L. Sherrill, author of They Speak With Other Tongues
