I had a conversation with a christian friend recently who told me that his network of churches in the UK had 'looked into' revival and one of their theologians had prepared a discussion paper after studying different churches that had experienced revival in the past. His take on this was that revival was not a sustainable realirty in the Church.

Want my take on this? For me NOT having revival is an unsustauinable reality in Church!

This got me speaking in church about revival and touched on principles for encouraging revival, receiving revival and sustaining revival. My teaching notes can be found on our church website here.  These are my raw notes and there is no guarantee that they are either coherent, or that this is what I actually end up preaching!
