Revival will come when we seek God and expect the best out of ourselves. It will come when we expect the church to be full of sinners and our communities full of Christians. Revival will come when we seek the things of God in the most public and private areas of our life and loose ourselves from the confines of the church assembly. Great blog...great entry!

I’d love for it to be true, Tim. Frankly, America is fast reaching the point of return culturally, so unless there is some change fairly soon, it looks as though we will go the way of ancient Rome.

I definitely see your point, and though one can’t predict these things, here’s hoping and praying for true revival!

Noah Riner: Faith Under Fire At Dartmouth

Noah Riner, 21 ? homeschooled son of a Baptist preacher, and now student body president at Dartmouth College ? sparked national controversy with his September 20th convocation speech to incoming freshmen. In what is traditionally an immemorable speec…

Amen, Tim! I’ve been studying Revelation 2 and 3 for the past few months (!) and it constantly amazes me how God wrote so specifically to those churches in 95 AD and speaks so specifically to churches TODAY! I mean, there are so many similarities and problems that it’s just sickening!

As for who will bring revival – we already know God will but I think we need to be open to the fact that He might want to use us…or He might not – we must be open to His will and pray that He will bring the Church back to His love.

Grace and Peace,

Amen to that…perhaps we are a generation that is planting a seed, or perhaps we’re seeing the fruits of previous “reports of seasons of awakening.”

I share in your hope that God will, in his grace, draw an unusual number of sinners unto himself in our lifetime. But don’t forget that Edwards didn’t make his stand on the Halfway Covenant until after the Great Awakening. And there were reports of seasons of awakening throughout the ministry of Solomon Stoddard, his grandfather and predecessor at Northampton. Perhaps there is some truth to the idea that revival is wholly a work of the Lord, who, in his grace, works in spite of our own theological error and deficiency.

Hey Tim, I left a comment over at the Rebelution about this. It just so happens that I work for Noah's dad, State Rep Tom Riner, as a legislative aide, and I worked in Georgia with Noah on a TeenPact event right after he broke his ankle in Quantico. It's one thing to read the transcript of the speech, but it's quite another thing to see it on video. Go to http://www.vidkit.com/noahspeech/ to download the video taken by Rep. Riner. You also oughta check out the dartmouth websites where students are writing in about how upset (or happy) they are about the whole fiasco. BTW, what search engine do you use for this site? In Him, David
