Revival: God's Resuscitation

We can approach the idea of revival from several starting points.  One could be a very traditional view of questions, responses, and actions.  However, since this group has always wanted to reach beyond the traditional lines, so it will be with this topic.  We will be dismantling the words, phrases, ideas, concepts, actions, and reactions of the phenomenon of revival.  I don't want to approach this from a fact, occurrence, or observed circumstance.  But, I want to experience it as a remarkable or exceptional wonder.  Are you willing to join me in this exploration?  I hope so!!

After waiting on the Lord as to how to work this, the subject matter seems to lend itself to a mixture of group gatherings (discussions/prayer) and single/personal times of prayer. I admit this is different from our normal meeting format, and, I don't know exactly how this will turn out. But, I have confidence in God working for His purpose via His Holy Spirit in each person.

Romans 8:15 (MSG) "This resurrection life you received from God is not a timid, grave-tending life. It's adventurously expectant, greeting God with a childlike "What's next, Papa?""
