Saturday night at the chapel: looks like it was still a full house.
First nooze I heard this morning: “university officials” (you see those words and know you’re going to hear something asinine): The revival at Asbury University, Kentucky, is to be shut down (https://www.wdrb.com/news/asbury-university-to-end-nonstop-revival-service-list-new-guidelines-and-schedule/article_acc7acaa-af2c-11ed-8cce-e33ce80e7f47.html).
Oh, of course it’s for “public safety concerns,” never mind that during the whole 11 days of the non-stop worship services, no one was injured, no one was robbed, no property was damaged. Round-the-clock services have been discontinued as of last night, and everyone’s supposed to leave after Thursday.
They want to “balance” the spontaneous outbreak of worship with “the academic experience.” So no more live streaming, either.
Why do I think there were a lot of high-pressure phone calls made that we will never know about? How did the crones on “The Vew” go a whole week without mocking the revival?
People were still coming from foreign countries as of this past weekend. Well, that’s that! Everybody go home!
So is this the end of it? America needs revival. The whole world needs revival. Can we carry it on at home? Because we really do need it. And you shouldn’t have to ask why.
