Episode 34 | My Thoughts on the Asbury Revival
In February, Asbury University in Kentucky took the news by storm with its spontaneous and continuous worship service, which continued for over two weeks after a routine chapel service should have ended. What are we to make of spiritual revivals? Should we be joyful, cautious, or both? Are spiritual revivals even biblical? The scroll of Nehemiah has much wisdom to offer about revival, reform, and how God-followers should approach this topic.
