Christianity Revived in the East recounts the remarkable religious awakening among the Armenian population of Turkey during the 19th century. Penned by Harrison Gray Otis Dwight, this narrative provides a detailed account of the work of God as witnessed through the experiences of the Armenian people.

Dwight’s firsthand observations offer invaluable insights into the cultural and spiritual landscape of the region, highlighting the challenges and triumphs of spreading Christian faith within the Ottoman Empire. This historical record serves as a vital primary source for understanding the dynamics of religious conversion, intercultural relations, and the enduring legacy of Christian missions in the Middle East.

With a foreword by T.S. Wentworth, this edition provides historical context to Dwight’s work. Christianity Revived in the East remains a compelling testament to the transformative power of faith and the resilience of the Armenian Christian community.
