Revive Podcast

If a Martyr came into your church service tomorrow, would he rejoice and say "This is what I died for" or would he fall to his knees, cry out, and say, "Oh Zion, what have you become?"The convicting words the Lord spoke to Ethan. Today's podcast is about the transformative love of God and the absolute necessity to live in desperation. Oftentimes, it is in our most desperate seasons that the Lord speaks the clearest and does His best work in us. We hope that after listening, something inside of you makes you desperate for Him; for His voice, for His presence, for Him alone. Be bold in Jesus name.

The Book Launch is here! Our host, Michael Otano, has written 24 training devotionals that God directed him to publish. In today's episode we sat down with one of his editors, Hannah Wallace, as they explore the editing process, the divine purpose that led to these publications, and read an excerpt together from Volume 2: The Apostolic Training Devotional. Currently, books are available for purchase in-house only. You can contact the ministry at [email protected] to acquire your copy. Stay tuned to find out when the books will be available on Amazon.

"God isn't impressed by your volume, but He is impressed by your fervency." -Philip JordanWe had the honor of hosting Bishop Philip Jordan, the General Superintendent of Indiana for the UPCI. Yesterday, he preached a message of hope to our congregation at our home church Christian Revival Center. Afterwards, he came to the studio to share a message of conviction: the power, or rather importance, of prayer. Oftentimes prayer is something many believers do mostly at church services, but where has the secret place gone? Philip Jordan talks to us about his personal encounters with the Lord from a young age, a time where prayer was made for hours and a miracle happened, and a time he woke up after being lifeless on the floor of his home, only to hear the sound of his family praying. We pray at the end of this episode, you're moved to go back to the secret place: the one filled with power, purpose, and His presence. Be encouraged in Jesus name.

Have you ever wondered what it would be like living in the time of the Book of Acts? Bishop Dr. Desta tells us stories of the multiple times he went to prison for preaching the Gospel. However in the midst of his cell, he still managed to find the joy of the Lord and the strength to share his testimony to all. We pray this encourages you!

On our one year anniversary of RP (August 5th) we had our very first guest, Dillon Jordan. Jordan is a part of the family here at RP and also at our home campus, Christian Revival Center. Our first episode with him was titled "The Making of a Minister," so we thought it fitting to film one a year titled "How to be Used by God." We pray that this episode encourages, blesses, and strengthens you.
