Seeking Revival (Bonus): Your Top Revival Need

  You may remember the famous words, “Houston, we have a problem,” shared by the astronaut crew of Apollo 13 to the ground team at NASA. In a similar way, the Apostle John wrote a letter to warn the church of Ephesus of some serious problems he identified (see Revelation 2). Concluding her four-part series on  Seeking Revival, Lisa explores what the modern-day church can learn from this passage and how our situation mirrors Ephesus in many ways. Listen in to discover one key thing we’ve lost as a church, as well as the three non-negotiables we need in order to experience personal revival. Don’t miss one minute of this good news!

Lisa's poignant words will stir your heart and move you towards a faith built not merely on rules, but on deep, life-altering convictions.  This  is where revival begins.
