Experiencing God Restoring Life and Vitality

While helping start a new church, I watched a church experience God restoring life and vitality. The senior adults at New Hope had been trying to hold on to life, and they were dwindling away.

God took this revived and praying church to bring in a significant spiritual harvest during the coming months. They were willing to pay the price of returning to the Lord and experienced the fruit of obedience to Him. For a…
