During true revival, thousands of lost people are suddenly swept into the Kingdom of God. Scenes of the lost coming to the Savior in great, and unprecedented numbers, are common.

— Henry Blackaby (1935–2024), Pastor, Konferenzsprecher und Bestsellerautor („Gott erleben“)

Henry Blackaby

Henry Blackaby (1935–2024) war ein kanadischer baptistischer Pastor, Konferenzsprecher und Autor, der vor allem in Kanada und den USA wirkte. Bekannt wurde er durch sein Studienprogramm „Gott erleben“ und den Leitsatz, zu erkennen, wo Gott bereits wirkt, um sich Seinem Handeln anzuschließen. Während seine Impulse zu geistlicher Erneuerung und persönlichem Gebet weithin geschätzt werden, sehen reformierte Theologen seine Lehre vom alltäglichen Hören auf Gottes Stimme als zu subjektiv an.
