From the Foreword:

Would to God every believer in America would read this book. It addresses the greatest need of the Church in this critical hour of history—a heaven-sent revival. The prophet Isaiah cried, "oh, that thou wouldest rent the heavens and come down, that the mountains might quake at your presence." What a difference the presence of God makes. Mountains, those seemingly immovable obstacles that defy the advance of God's Kingdom, suddenly melt before the presence of a holy God.

Every year the American Church spends multiple millions of dollars on various types of evangelism and yet, in the words of the apostle Peter, "we have toiled all night and caught nothing."

Peter was a professional fisherman with a lifetime of experience and he knew all about the tides and seasons. He knew how, when, and where to fish. He was committed to his task, having toiled throughout the long dark hours of the night, and yet in the end, had little to show for his efforts. Likewise, the 20th century Church is continuing the same pattern. Only when Jesus became involved in Peter's fishing business did his nets begin to break under the weight of the fish.

This book is filled with examples of Jesus stepping down from eternity into time, and forever changing life's, cities, and nations. I've had the privilege of sitting under the anointed Ministry of the author. He is a true "revivalists" with a burning passion for God's glory to be revealed again, in and through the Church. Glenn and his wife, Jessica, are a rare breed these days. They have gladly relinquish the normal luxuries of life to travel throughout the nation by motor home, ministering wherever God opens doors. Their lifestyle is simple, the message powerful, and their lives humble. I recommend both this book and their Ministry to you. —David Ravenhill, author and itinerant teacher, Lindale, Texas

Rend The Heavens was written to stir spiritually hungry saints to the dire need for revival in our land. Genuine revival is an invasion from Heaven which brings to men a conscious awareness of God. It changes churches and transforms society. This is what it means for the Lord to Rend the Heavens.

The greatest spiritual advances the Church has ever made were accomplished through the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. The God of revival has transformed cities and nations in the past. He will do it again.

This book addresses:

• What defines genuine revival
• The necessity of Revival
• How spiritual awakenings begin
• Our responsibility in preparing the way

Glenn, and his wife Jessica, yearn for God's presence and power to be manifested through the local church to reach a perishing world.
