You may remember the famous words, “Houston, we have a problem,” shared by the astronaut crew of Apollo 13 to the ground team at NASA. In a similar way, the Apostle John wrote a letter to warn the church of Ephesus of some serious problems he identified (see Revelation 2). Concluding her four-part series on Seeking Revival, Lisa explores what the modern-day church can learn from this passage and how our situation mirrors Ephesus in many ways. Listen in to discover one key thing we’ve lost as a church, as well as the three non-negotiables we need in order to experience personal revival. Don’t miss one minute of this good news!

  In life, we often look for a road map: what works, what doesn't, and how to get to our destination with the least amount of friction. In part three of the Seeking Revival series, Lisa shares a “revival roadmap” of sorts, offering four things that prevent us from experiencing God in a fresh and personal way. (Warning: As you listen to Lisa's insight and discover which “revival-killer” most resonates with you, be prepared to step out of your comfort zone!) This episode will inspire and encourage you to be an active participant in the move of God: recognizing that revival begins on a personal level long before it ever appears in the world around you.  Links Invite Lisa to Speak Take the Quiz: What Do You Want?

  Growing up, you were likely taught that following rules is always the right choice. But when your convictions differ from the rules, which do you follow then?

Lisa's poignant words will stir your heart and move you towards a faith built not merely on rules, but on deep, life-altering convictions. This is where revival begins.
