We are honored to announce the upcoming republication of A New Pentecost for a Starving World, now to be released under the author’s own name in a fully revised and expanded edition. This new release reflects years of additional reflection, refinement, and theological clarity from Br. Thomas Varkey, whose message continues to resonate with readers seeking spiritual renewal and deeper intimacy with God.
As previously explored in our feature story, Br. Thomas’s journey spans more than four decades of disciplined scriptural study, evangelization, and personal transformation. His call to awaken the global Church through what he describes as a new Pentecost has touched readers across communities. Now, this revised edition strengthens that call with clearer structure, renewed urgency, and expanded insights into the 5 Minute Salvation Plan and the theology of spiritual rebirth.
This republication is more than a reprint. It is a recommitment to the mission. By releasing this edition under his name, Br. Thomas affirms both authorship and accountability for the message he believes God has entrusted to him.
The revised version will also be more affordable for the buying public, ensuring that the message of rebirth, mercy, and childlike intimacy with the Holy Trinity is accessible to a wider audience.
Readers will encounter the same powerful themes that shaped the original work. The theology of being born again as described in John 3, the emphasis on calling upon the name of the Lord as promised in Romans 10 and Joel 2, and the vivid biblical illustrations such as the thief on the cross and the grateful leper all remain central. What has changed is the refinement of presentation, the strengthening of explanation, and the author’s growing conviction that this message is needed now more than ever.
We are proud to congratulate Br. Thomas Varkey on an important international milestone.
A New Pentecost for a Starving World was officially displayed at the Tokyo Art Book Fair, held during the second week of December 2025. This global showcase places his work before an international audience of readers, publishers, creatives, and thought leaders who gather in Tokyo to explore books that inspire reflection, culture, and transformation.
The Tokyo Art Book Fair is known for highlighting works that go beyond entertainment, books that carry meaning, depth, and a message for the times. Seeing A New Pentecost for a Starving World represented on this respected stage affirms the growing global relevance of Br. Thomas Varkey’s message on spiritual rebirth, renewal, and intimacy with God.
This milestone comes at a meaningful moment, as the book is now moving toward republication under the author’s own name in a revised and more accessible edition. The upcoming release will offer readers a refined presentation of his core teachings, including the call for a new Pentecost and the simplicity of returning to God with childlike faith.
From decades of scriptural study to international book fairs, this journey reflects a message that continues to travel across borders and cultures. The Tokyo Art Book Fair recognition marks not just an achievement, but a continuation of a mission to reach hearts worldwide.
Congratulations to Br. Thomas Varkey on this global honor. More updates on the revised republication coming soon.
This republication campaign will focus on three core pillars:
- Accessibility
A revised and more affordable edition designed to reach students, families, churches, and international readers who may not have had access before. - Authority
The book will now stand firmly under the author’s name, reflecting his decades of biblical study and spiritual leadership. - Global Momentum
With international exposure at events such as the Tokyo Art Book Fair and previous global showcases, the revised edition builds on an expanding worldwide audience.
In the coming weeks, readers can expect additional materials including updated press releases, author insights, exclusive excerpts, and video reflections expanding on the themes of rebirth and divine intimacy. Br. Thomas has expressed openness to editorial feedback and collaboration as this new edition moves toward release, ensuring that the final publication reflects both theological depth and clarity for modern readers.
This is not simply a book relaunch. It is a renewed invitation to spiritual awakening. A reminder that calling upon the name of the Lord remains as powerful today as it was in the earliest days of the Church. And a celebration of an author whose message continues to find new soil around the world.
We extend our heartfelt congratulations to Br. Thomas Varkey on this exciting new chapter. The revised and republished edition of A New Pentecost for a Starving World marks both a personal milestone and a global opportunity to bring the fire of renewal to readers everywhere.
More updates coming soon.
