1970 Asbury Revival
Revival awakening flowed through several college campuses in 1970, beginning at Asbury College, a Christian liberal arts college of Methodist roots, and its graduate school, Asbury Theological Seminary, both in Wilmore, Kentucky (near Lexington). A small group of students began getting up thirty minutes earlier each day to gather for Scripture reading and prayer in […]

Any chance the disciples stole the body?
The Burial of Jesus Was Public and Secured The sixth reason I believe in the resurrection of the historical Jesus is that the burial of Jesus was public and secured. Some of the detractors would say, “Well, you know what? He really died, but they went to the wrong tomb or the disciples stole the […]

Asbury Revival Blazes Cross-Country Trail
Asbury College president Dr. Dennis F. Kinlaw wonders if the revival that erupted on campus in tiny Wilmore, Kentucky, marks the reawakening of an evangelical missionary spirit that will spread around the world. In an interview Dr. Kinlaw said he planned to tell Asbury’s 1,000 students during a chapel period that a group of collegians […]

1970 Asbury Revival
Revival Always Involves a Deep Demonstration of Emotion One of the distinguishing characteristics of revival as well as one of the greatest points of criticism has centered on its emotional responses. When Jonathan Edwards preached his famous sermon “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God,” those listening in the audience fainted and cried out […]

I don’t understand, God
God tells us that while we live on earth, some things about his plan will remain a secret: “The secret things belong to the LORD our God, but the things revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may follow all the words of this law” (Deut 29:29). Not knowing all of […]

The Disciplined Used of Time
Godliness is the result of a disciplined spiritual life. But at the heart of a disciplined spiritual life is the Discipline of time. If we are going to be like Jesus, we must see the use of our time as a Spiritual Discipline. Having so perfectly ordered His moments and His days, at the end […]

Why God? Why?
When we are in the throes of pain, it is difficult to feel assured of God’s wisdom and love. But if God is as big as Scripture says he is (and as big as creation itself demands!), then our inability to perceive his purpose doesn’t mean there’s not one at work. Our inability to discern […]

Joy in God
I hope it is plain so far that if you come to God dutifully, offering Him the reward of your fellowship instead of thirsting after the reward of His, then you exalt yourself above God as His benefactor and belittle Him as a needy beneficiary. That is evil. The only way to glorify the all-sufficiency […]

Did Jesus Really Die?
Sometimes one simple question can uncomplicate a very messy situation. I remember when my sons were in the fourth grade and they were not allowed to go into one of our neighbors’ houses because their parents weren’t home. There was no supervision. The use of alcohol by their teenage boys and the viewing of movies […]

What does it mean to honor
A friend called me one day with a question that made me think along new lines. “Ron and I have not been very happy with the sermons we’ve been getting lately. I hardly know what to say to the minister when we come out of church and shake hands. But what bothers me most is […]
