Dr. Batten’s message is a thrilling ‘summons to the new crusade, a vision of what would happen if the thirty-four million church members in this country who pray for the kingdom of God should unite in making that kingdom a fact.’ By the time the last page is reached one is ready to agree with a statement at the beginning of the book, that ‘instead of debating whether Christianity has failed, we may well ask whether it has really been tried.’
