Two weeks ago, a handful of students at Asbury University in Wilmore, Kentucky stayed behind after their regular chapel service to pray and confess their sins. Within hours, more and more students on campus were flocking to the chapel inside the Hughes building. Fast forward 16 days, and thousands from across the globe have joined in with 24-7 non-stop prayer, worship and confession. Many are reporting a tangible sense of the presence of God. Premier's North American correspondent Kathleen Durham has been on site at Asbury University.

February 17, 2023 Matt Redman: The songwriter pursuing more reverence in worship
The man behind of the world's most popular worship songs including '10,000 Reasons' and 'Blessed Be Your Name' releases his 14th album this weekend. In this special in-depth interview with Matt Redman, the songwriter explains what listeners can expect from Lamb of God and unpacks why he's so passionate about singing more songs regarding the holiness of God. "I love it when we don't even get a mention at all in the lyrics", comments Redman. Speaking to Premier Christianity's Sam Hailes, Redman also defines what success looks like for him and addresses common criticisms of the modern worship movement. For Redman, reverence in worship is everything. "It's a bit of a lifelong pursuit, honestly," he says, "trying to bring a little more reverence into these expressions of songs, because I think that’s what’s been lacking."

February 11, 2023 John Roedel: How writing Facebook letters to God changed my life and lifted my depression
The poet, author and comic John Roedel knows what it is to suffer. From the collapse of his family business, to his son's autism diagnosis, Roedell wrestled with the big questions of life. Witnessing the inner workings of a local Catholic church didn't help, instead it led him toward atheism. For years he suffered serious depression. The turning point came when Roedel discovered God was far more personal than he'd been led to believe. "My relationship with God had always been very formal", he remembers. But something was changing. By imagining a two way conversation with God - and posting the results on Facebook - John's perception of the divine was changing for the better. "This was different. This was a relational moment I hadn't experienced before." Ultimately those short posts went viral and led to a new career for this writer/poet. Sam Hailes hears the full story.
