It's opening night... Ann & I will be there with some family and friends. And we are volunteering Saturday afternoon and evening and would be delighted to see you. We were part of a small audience that contributed to the beginnings of this show... https://t.co/edewzTBgqr
Life’s hard. Stuff’s painful. Disappoints come. Devil’s got a way to comfort you. He’s a liar. Don’t do something stupid. Choose faithfulness. Don’t give in to that temptation. Open your eyes and see that seduction for what it is. Hold tight to Jesus. He’s the way through.
Oh, and don’t try to talk to me about the devil just being some archaic idea. I’ve lived too long and tangled too hard to believe that trash. Wake up. You have an enemy who wants to destroy you, shatter your relationships and shipwreck your faith.
I am crying softly. My tears surprise me. I only met with Tim Keller twice. But these things I know. He loved his wife and three sons. He loved the Bible. He loved others. He sought unity in a world of division. He cared deeply for the hurting and the homeless. He shared the gospel unashamedly. He loved the local church. Above all, he loved Jesus, the Savior who just welcomed him into His arms. Thank you for your life, @timkellernyc. And praise God for your eternal life.
You were put here to be a self, and to live fully as a self. The worth of the self—your self—is inestimable, and God’s intent for you is that you become a fully realized self as you make the grace-fueled movement from the old self to the new #DallasWillard#LifeWithoutLack
#asburyrevival TESTIMONY 😭
✍️- J Madison Pierce
I am 25-year-old seminary student at Asbury. I have participated in the meetings at Asbury movement since the beginning. I’ve been hesitant to post my thoughts since I find we often to get lost in the wrong conversation talking about “revival”. Despite this, it seems that God is moving in a surprising way for Gen Z. I find it interesting that God would mark this particular outpouring with:
A tangible sense of peace for an generation with unprecedented anxiety.
A restorative sense of belonging for a generation amidst an epidemic of loneliness
An authentic hope for a generation marked by depression and suicidal ideation.
A leadership emphasizing protective humility in relationship with power for a generation deeply hurt by the abuse of religious power.
A focus on participatory adoration for an age of digital distracted.
It feels as if God is personally meeting young adults in ways meaningful to my generation. A generation formed differently then previous so the traits of this outpouring are different then revivals of old. The new outpouring is not the signs and wonders nor zealous intercession nor spontaneous tongues nor charismatic physicalities nor the weeping wails. It is marked by a tangible feeling of holistic peace, a restorative sense of belonging, a non-anxious presence through felt safety, repentance driven by experienced kindness, humble stewardship of power, and holiness through treasuring adoration. #asburyrevival2023
IRRESPONSIBLE HEADLINE and unfaithful journalistic practice by Epoch Times!! “Mom Was Told Baby Died in the Womb, Gives Birth to Son 4 Weeks Later: ‘My Christmas Miracle’” …this is salacious and misleading!
