Dating from 1722, the Moravian story is the fruit of three converging factors. The first was a religious revival in Germany called Pietism, which brought about the Christ-centred awakening of a dogma-driven church that was desperately in need of renewal. The second factor was the pressure of religious persecution and increasing division amongst God’s people on the continent of Europe. The third was the personality and call of a man by the name of Nikolaus von Zinzendorf.  Jason Hubbard
