Hello Friend,
Has our nation ever been more divided than it is now? Certainly not in my lifetime. The only parallel I can think of would be the late ’60s, with all the riots and racial division issues of that time. I would say it was almost as bad then as it is today because there’s an additional aspect to today’s division: social media. In the late ’60s, we didn’t have Twitter and Facebook and all of these platforms where fuel can be thrown onto preexisting flames.
As Christians, we need to be peacemakers, not troublemakers. We need to really pray that God would heal our land, as 2 Chronicles 7:14 prescribes.

Some people feel that our nation, and indeed the world, is so far gone that there is nothing to do but hunker down and wait for the end. I don’t feel that way. I believe there is hope for revival. If God could do it in the late ’60s, He can do it again today.
Revival isn’t something that we can make happen; it is a work of the Holy Spirit that only He can do. But while we can’t organize revival, we can agonize for it in prayer.
If you’re feeling pessimistic about the spiritual state of our world, I want to remind you of what God is able to do in times of revival. It’s been said, “The fame of revival spreads the flame of revival.” In other words, there’s something about looking back at what God has done that inspires us to pray He’ll do it again.
Experience the Jesus Movement with me, dubbed by Time Magazine as “the Jesus Revolution.” How? In a book I wrote with the extremely talented author Ellen Vaughn. In this book, Jesus Revolution, we take a closer look at God’s amazing work of revival amid all the trouble and turmoil of that era—and how He can certainly do it again now.
This special edition of Jesus Revolution comes with a brand-new study guide with access to video material that reinforces the insights of the book. We’ll send you a copy of Jesus Revolution and the study guide as a gift of appreciation for any donation you make this month to Harvest Ministries.
Let’s spread the fame of revival today! Request your copy below. |
