At a prayer breakfast on March 1, 1962, John F. Kennedy stated: "We bear great responsibilities and great burdens not only to ourselves in this country but to so many around the world. I commend ... Reverend Billy Graham, who has served this cause about which I speak so well here and around the world.

Title: Jesus Revolution Presents a Relevant Revival
Topic: Revival in America
Discussed by Dr. David Ayers
with The Institute for Faith and Freedom (www.FaithAndFreedom.com)


Part 1 of 3

Everyone is searching for something – a deeper meaning and purpose to life. What is it they’re searching for? What is the one thing we all need?

Dr. David Ayers recently wrote: “Drug epidemics and overdoses rage, penetrating every racial group and social class, while suicides, mental illnesses, and sexual and gender confusion among young people climb.”

Today, Dr. Ayers discusses the recent explosion on the box office of the movie “Jesus Revolution” and why he believes we are in need of a major revival in America. Dr. Ayers is the Fellow for Marriage and Family with the Institute for Faith and Freedom.

Click here to read Dr. David Ayers’ op-ed on this topic.

Click here for more information about the movie “Jesus Revolution”.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

What was the Jesus Movement that occurred in the late 1960s-1970s?

The day after the Asbury University Revival officially ended, the “Jesus Revolution” movie was released in theaters. Was this a coincidence or ordained by the Maker of the Universe?

During the Jesus Movement, what were the hippies looking and searching for? Dr. Ayers reveals some about his own conversion during the movement…

Did this unplanned spiritual movement lead to the evangelical conversion of millions around the world?

What was the Jesus Movement rooted in? What was its foundation?

Where was America headed before the Jesus Movement? Dr. Ayers remembers a desperate, hopeless place full of riots and division.

Discussed by Dr. David Ayers
with The Institute for Faith and Freedom (www.FaithAndFreedom.com)

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Some have compared America at the time of the Jesus Movement to England during their evangelical revival of the 1700’s, when fire, death, and destruction cursed the country. Did the Jesus Revolution spare America of a devastating civil uprising?

People from all walks of life come together during the Jesus Movement. Did they simply speak a language that many could understand?

Mistakes were made by many during the Jesus Movement. Were these mistakes overcome?

with The Institute for Faith and Freedom (www.FaithAndFreedom.com)

Are we currently living in a darkness? Dr. Ayers explains why he definitely believes we are, citing the massive drug epidemic in the country, as well as the mass shooting which recently took place targeting people of faith who spoke out against the LGBTQ community.

Title: It’s Time for Another Jesus Revolution
Topic: Revival in America
Discussed by Arielle Del Turco
with Family Research Council (www.FRC.org)


Part 1 of 2

Throughout history, there have been moves of the Holy Spirit inside and outside the church. Is it time for another Jesus Revolution in America and across the world?

Arielle Del Turco is the Assistant Director for the Center for Religious Liberty at the Family Research Council. Today, she discusses the movie (in theaters now) “Jesus Revolution”.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Did many hippies discover the love of God and for others during the Jesus Movement of the late 60’s and early 70’s?

In the movie, “Jesus Revolution”, is there conflict between the older generation of churchgoers and younger members of the Jesus movement?

Does the movie, “Jesus Revolution”, over-dramatize the gritty hardships and some of the choices made by many during that time? Arielle explains that, while the movie does include drugs, it is a family-friendly movie. Why? Because it is based on TRUE stories! We all need to know the good, the bad, and the ugly about life.

Topic: Revival in America
Discussed by Arielle Del Turco
with Family Research Council (www.FRC.org)

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Christian movies have a reputation for being “cheesy”. Is the “Jesus Revolution” cheesy?

Is the younger generation of today much like the rebellious hippies of the late 60’s and 70’s? Arielle discusses the sharp rise in suicide and mental health issues in teens and young adults, which may be directly correlated to transgenderism and Gender Dysphoria.

Several weeks ago, a revival began after an ordinary chapel service at Asbury University in Kentucky. Did this revival kick-start something at college campuses across the nation?

Is there a yearning today to know God and to know God more deeply?

Questions/Issues Discussed:

How should we be praying for those attending the Asbury Revival and those seeing posts/videos on social media?

Title: What is Happening at Asbury University?
Topic: Revival in America
Discussed by Mark Tooley
with Institute on Religion and Democracy www.theIRD.org

Mark Tooley is the President of the Institute on Religion and Democracy. Today he discusses the revival that has been unfolding at Asbury University, which is quite possibly the largest ongoing revival in the United States since the one that began in Wheaton in 1995.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

What is happening at Asbury University? Was the Pastor’s sermon something extraordinary? Mark Tooley explains that it was just a “normal” sermon that has developed into a days-long revival with worship and preaching and healing and redemption and salvation.

How big is the chapel and auditorium? How many people can they seat? Are they filled to the brim?

Does America need a fresh visit from God?

Other colleges and universities are now participating in this revival on their campuses. Is God moving in a mighty way? Mark Tooley discusses the End Times, saying he is encouraged by the revival among our youth.

Were these revivals “planned” or are they a true move of God?

How are the people attending these revivals participating?

Without a move of the Holy Spirit, can we see right lifted up again in American and wrong put down? Mark believes that “the Church is the conscience of the society and must be renewed and in touch with the Holy Spirit… It is the key to the health of any society.”
