Today, on the show, I explore the question: "What is revival?" Recently, we have witnessed numerous events in our culture referred to as revivals, along with a significant resurgence of interest in spiritual matters.

By doing so, we can confidently stand for the truth and serve as vessels to help those who are lost and in need find the answers they seek—answers that can only be found in the person and work of Jesus Christ. As you listen, my prayer for you is that you will commit to sharing the truth of the gospel with both boldness and a spirit of love and compassion, bringing light into the darkness!
