Realities of Revival II: The Means of Revival

After introducing our new series last week, John and Teddy are diving deeper into the topic of revival. This week they focus on seeking a biblical understanding of revival, its means, and its results.

One helpful definition comes to us from Richard Owen Roberts. He defines revival as, “...an unusual manifestation of the power of the grace of God in convincing and converting careless sinners, and in quickening and increasing the faith and piety of believers.”

In the most succinct summary of this episode, we can say that revival is God drawing near, through the ordinary means of grace, in an unusual way. The means are not unusual. But the nearness of God is. And it is His nearness that both makes revival possible and makes us desire it.
