Why Revival Isn’t Happening—and What the Church Must Do First
Steve and Joe discuss what happens when Christians begin allowing culture and personal ideology to reshape Scripture rather than allowing Scripture to shape their lives. Joe traces the problem back to the Garden of Eden—the temptation to question God’s Word and put our own desires ahead of what God has said. But the conversation turns to an even bigger question: Why aren't we seeing widespread revival? Joe points to something that has preceded historic revivals again and again: prayer. He argues that prayer has increasingly moved away from the center of church life, and that Christians can become discouraged when they pray for revival but don't immediately see results.
