The Book of Acts invites us into the incredible story of how Jesus began building His church through ordinary people empowered by the Holy Spirit. In Riots & Revivals, we'll follow their journey from fear to bold faith—where miracles happen, lives are changed, and the message of Jesus turns the world upside down.

Jana & Jasmine posten's auf Insta, evangelikale Kreise predigen's von der Kanzel – und mancher heiratet vorschnell, um endlich loslegen zu dürfen: «Kein Sex vor der Ehe» ist wieder Thema. Stephan und Manuel nehmen sich einen theologisch aufgeladenen Klassiker vor – und versuchen zu klären, was an der Maxime dran ist. Ist «Kein Sex vor der Ehe» ein religiöser Anachronismus – oder ein notwendiges Gegengewicht zur hypersexualisierten Gegenwartskultur? Für Stephan kurz vor, für Manuel kurz nach dem Urlaub diskutieren die beiden einen Dauerbrenner evangelikaler wie auch katholischer Theologie, der derzeit auf Social Media (etwa bei „Jana & Jasmine“) wieder Wogen wirft – und auch Teil eines breiteren konservativen Revivals ist, in dem traditionelle Familienbilder und Sexualmoral wieder Aufwind erhalten, nicht nur in den USA. Die beiden reden über die sexualethische Revolution des frühen Christentums – und wie sie besonders Männer in die Pflicht nahm, um Frauen und Kinder zu schützen. Sie würdigen die Motive, aus denen fromme Kreise bis heute an rigiden Regeln festhalten – der Wunsch etwa, junge Menschen vor einer entgrenzten Porno-Kultur und toxischen Erwartungshaltungen zu schützen – thematisieren aber auch die Schattenseiten: den Druck, der in konservativen Milieus entstehen kann, die Gefahr überhasteter Ehen, die Unklarheit, wie eine gesunde Balance zwischen sexueller Selbstbestimmung und Verantwortung aussehen kann. Umgekehrt lässt sich im Blick auf die Erzählung der sexuellen Befreiung auch fragen: Wie hilfreich ist das Prinzip der Einvernehmlichkeit wirklich? Wird die Maxime «Alles ist erlaubt, solange beide zustimmen» nicht strategisch unterlaufen durch den Gruppendruck und die sozialen Erwartungen gerade an junge Frauen, einfach «mitzumachen» und sogar «toll» zu finden, was eine männerdominierte, pornografisierte Gesellschaft vorgibt? Eine Folge über Sex, Ethik und die Frage, ob es zwischen Enthaltsamkeitsgebot und rücksichtsloser Triebsteuerung einen klugen dritten Weg gibt.

In this special interim episode, co-host Peterson Toscano revisits two powerful stories that explore revival and reevaluation on both personal and communal levels. First, we hear from Karla Jay, Global Ministries Coordinator for Friends United Meeting and part of the pastoral team at Iglesia Amigos de Indianapolis. Karla shares her eyewitness account of the 2023 Asbury University revival, a spiritual awakening that drew national attention and over 50,000 visitors. Next, we meet Hayden Hobby, a youth worker and worship leader in Richmond, Virginia. Hayden reflects on his journey out of a fear-based evangelical theology and into a more authentic, evolving faith. He reads from his essay, Surviving Religious Trauma: How I Left an Abusive God, published in the February 2023 issue of Friends Journal. Finally, Peterson takes listeners to Millville, Pennsylvania, where Millville Friends Meeting has taken bold steps to affirm LGBTQ+ people and all spiritual seekers. Inspired by a call from Philadelphia Quarterly Meeting, the small rural meetinghouse—situated across from the local high school and next to a hilltop cemetery—crafted explicit welcome statements and is preparing to participate in PrideAPalooza 2025. The welcome statement for LGBTQ+ people reads:  At Millville Friends Meeting, we publicly recognize that lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, gender non-conforming, intersex, asexual, and queer (LGBTQIA+) people have faced systemic exclusion, judgment, and harm—especially in religious communities. In light of this history, we affirm LGBTQIA+ people as full and valuable members of our spiritual community. Your presence, leadership, and gifts are cherished. You are welcome here. The general welcome statement reads: Millville Friends Meeting welcomes and embraces all peace-loving spiritual seekers. We are committed to creating a community where people of all races, ethnicities, ages, genders, gender identities and expressions, sexual, romantic, or affectional orientations, immigration or refugee statuses, marital or family structures, economic situations, educational backgrounds, and physical, mental, or neurodiverse abilities are affirmed and valued. Each person's spiritual journey is sacred. You are welcome here. The Millville Meeting commissioned graphic designer, Christine Bakke, to create posters for the website, to hang inside the meetinghouse, and to post outside.

Something strange happened in Upstate New York during the 1830s. This area was called the "Burned-Over District" because so many fiery religious revivals swept through that it was metaphorically burned over. This region became a key source of the Second Great Awakening, a Protestant revival movement marked by emotional preaching and mass conversions, as preachers like Charles Finney inspired thousands to seek personal salvation and social reform. The revival spirit also birthed new movements: Mormonism emerged with Joseph Smith's founding of the Latter Day Saint movement in 1830, the Jehovah’s Witnesses trace their roots to the Bible Student movement that gained traction later in the century, and Spiritualism took hold in the 1840s with the Fox sisters’ claims of communicating with spirits in Hydesville, New York. This episode, however, isn’t just about the Burned-Over District. It’s about how these revivalists tapped into a distinctly American form of power, one not built on title or lineage, but on pure, raw charisma. From Puritan prophets and prophetesses in the 1600s to big-tent revivalists in the 1800s, and even to modern self-help gurus like Tony Robbins and Oprah Winfrey, charisma has shaped influence across time. It empowers figures like presidents Donald Trump and Barack Obama to amass followings, sustain authority, and shape the national narrative through sheer personal appeal. Today’s guest is Molly Worthen, author of Spellbound: How Charisma Shaped American History from the Puritans to Donald Trump. We explore the roots of charisma and power in American democracy, whether it’s necessarily bad or can be used for good, and how to avoid falling under the spell of a charismatic demagogue.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ray gets calls this week asking for help with three old car revivals, and is happy to see people wanting to get their cars back on the road. Diagnosing old cars is a skill many younger guys don't possess, like looking at exhaust valves when exploded mufflers are seen. Matcoman Brian finds out that Mustang dreams really can come true, and our friend Louis finds out the hard way that the Jeep he was towing had no tire on the rim!  Check our social media feed to see the pictures; on Instagram: @real_motormouthradio  and on You Tube: https://youtu.be/xIgaHyrS0IQ

Today on the 5: I randomly checked on how the Frasier reboot was going, and apparently the answer is not that well. There are lots of opinions on why, but in my opinion the most prominent theories have it backward and point to my biggest issue with reboots and revivals.

As the school year wraps up and summer begins it's time for an annual pop culture tradition, the summer movie season. And, as we've done the last couple of years,… The post e371. Retro Revivals and Cinematic Sequels: Summer 2025 Preview appeared first on The VoxPopcast.

Missouri District Church of the Nazarene District Superintendent Mike Palmer shares the story of his call and ministry. ---In this week's episode, Pastor Mike Palmer, District Superintendent of the Missouri District Church of the Nazarene, joins the Jasons to talk about his pastoral journey. Pastor Mike is retiring in the summer of 2025 after 19 years of service in the DS role.In this episode, Pastor Mike and the Jasons talk about Mike's call to ministry and his experience as an evangelist/revivalist before being elected to the DS position. Revivals and evangelistic gatherings, like the old camp meetings, aren't as popular as they used to be. We discuss why that is, the important role that experiences play in our greater spiritual life and discipleship, and the ways that churches/districts are filling those gaps today.We are so grateful to have Pastor Mike with us and wish him all the best in his retirement!

In a world spinning with cultural chaos—where identity is blurred, truth is twisted, and justice is rebranded—revivalists don't play it safe. They break the silence the Church has too often kept, stepping into the fire with unapologetic truth and prophetic grit. While society battles mental breakdowns, economic collapse, war, and division, revivals cut through the noise with raw hope, deep healing, and a call to something real.This isn't religion-as-usual. Revivalists are spiritual insurgents—God's disruptors—rattling the status quo and shaking nations awake. They don't just preach—they provoke, mobilize, and spark movements that shift history.In this no-holds-barred episode, we sit down with a true heavyweight of revival—author, speaker, and film producer Mario Murillo—for a conversation that just might wreck your comfort zone and reignite your purpose.Website: www.seanandchristasmith.comFacebook: @seanandchristasmithministriesInstagram: @revseansmith @mrschristasmithX: @revseansmithYouTube: @seanandchristasmithministries

When a revival started in Ephesus, the sale of Artemis shrines dropped significantly. A silversmith named Demetrius, who made silver shrines, stirred up a riot after seeing the loss of business. As God's kingdom impacts the culture, persecution against the followers of Jesus will increase. Scripture References: Acts 19:21-41, Psalm 115:4-8 Pastor: Daniel Hendrickson

Exodus 33:18-23 — Revivals are exceptional and unusual. They are rare moments in which God's glory passes by in an especially sensible way. In this sermon on the sovereignty of God in revival from Exodus 33:18–23, Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones points out that Moses experienced a moment like this on the top of Mt. Sinai where he was able to know the character of God. There may be times when Christians are drawn towards the spectacular—this is innate in human beings. Dr. Lloyd-Jones challenges the listener not to seek the spectacle that comes with revival, but rather to seek to know the character of God. Dr. Lloyd-Jones gives a helpful overview of the various names of God in order to show how they inform who God is. For instance, when God calls Himself “I AM,” He declares Himself as the self-existent, everlasting One. God establishes a covenant with His people, and it is based completely upon who He is. He is the righteous redeemer who loves His own. By His grace and in His sovereignty, God chooses when revival comes, where it comes, and to whom it comes. Listen as Dr. Lloyd-Jones preaches on the sovereignty of God in revival.

“Who is this who comes from Edom, With garments of glowing colors from Bozrah? This One who is majestic in His apparel, Marching in the greatness of His strength? 'It is I who speak in righteousness, mighty to save.'” Isaiah 63:1 This week's podcast continues the sermon series by Reverend W. V. Higham. Mr. Higham was the pastor of John Snyder and his family while he spent time in Wales working on his doctorate. In this sermon, Mr. Higham continues discussing the need we have for revival but also highlights the fruit of true revival such as powerful preaching, earnest prayer, and a commitment to biblical worship. The discerning hearer might realize all these things are the ordinary means of grace through which God meets His people. That is true. But in revival, all these ordinary means are made effectual to an extraordinary degree. Same means; different degree. We pray this sermon is not only an encouragement to you in the troubled days we live in, but that it also gives fuel for you as you pray for revival in our day. Show Notes: W. V.

Joshua 4:21-24 — What are the characteristics of a revival? How do they start and what are the results? In this sermon on Joshua 4:21–24 titled “Revival Sermon: Variations Between Revivals,” Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones unpacks the powerful ways revival has affected the church and why the church must plead and pray for revival today. He relates revivals to the stones that were questioned by the children of the Israelites. The stones were a memorial there to remind the people and all the nations that the hand of the Lord is mighty. God has done great things and is still doing great things. A revival causes the people to be humbled by the glory and majesty of the Lord. It always results in praise and worship to God. Men and women who are converted during a revival become members of a church and abide in the faith. They become concerned for the lives of others who do not know God. Dr. Lloyd-Jones explains that there are many ways a revival starts, but only after first recognizing that it is an act of God, not a production of humanity. It may start suddenly or gradually, or it may start in a small group or a great crowd. There are many ways it can start and there are variations in the ways it can end. But the reason for revival never changes. It is so that the people will know the mighty hand of the Lord.

A revival causes the people to be humbled by the glory and majesty of the Lord. It always results in praise and worship to God. Men and women who are converted during a revival become members of a church and abide in the faith. They become concerned for the lives of others who do not know God. Dr. Lloyd-Jones explains that there are many ways a revival starts, but only after first recognizing that it is an act of God, not a production of humanity. It may start suddenly or gradually, or it may start in a small group or a great crowd. There are many ways it can start and there are variations in the ways it can end. But the reason for revival never changes. It is so that the people will know the mighty hand of the Lord.

Joshua 4:21-24 — What are the characteristics of a revival? How do they start and what are the results? In this sermon on Joshua 4:21–24 titled “Revival Sermon: Variations Between Revivals,” Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones unpacks the powerful ways revival has affected the church and why the church must plead and pray for revival today.

Today on the show, we're answering the question, “How do we identify when spring is here?” with Pastor Jon Tyson. Jon is the pastor of Church of the City in New York and a best selling author. We're going to talk about identifying spring, revival and resurrection, and what role we play in all of it.  This is also our last episode before Holy Week and Easter, since we don't release episodes during Holy Week, so we also talk about ways to enter into this next week as we finish Lent and celebrate the resurrection.  And if you're following along in your TSF Seasons Guidebook, we're on page 45. As always, if you still want to get a Guidebook and join us, you can find it at anniefdowns.com/seasons.  As you know, we don't release shows during Holy Week, but we do have an entire Holy Week playlist that you can go back and listen to where I read the Scripture from each day of that week leading up to Easter.  . . . . .
