Home > Shearer Schoolhouse Revival

The Shearer Schoolhouse Revival was a religious phenomenon that occurred during a series of meetings conducted in the summer of 1896 in Cherokee County, North Carolina. The revival was characterized by what participants believed to be the biblical experience of speaking in tongues. The group that hosted these worship gatherings eventually became known as the Church of God (Cleveland).

It needs to be pointed out that this event predated the Azusa Street Revival ( 1906) which is generally held to be the event that started the Pentecostal Movement in the United States. This fact indicates that the Asuza Revival could possibly be seen as one of many similar religious phenomenons that occurred at around the same point in history. There is no doubting, however, that Asuza had a greater "impact" and is more widely known.
