Contributed by Douglas Bryan on Aug 1, 2005

Revival Or Funeral

Contributed by Pastor/Author: Terry Sisney on Feb 13, 2023

Revival is not a mystery, revival is God's answer to hungry hearts, and prevailing prayer. I say this with no fear of exaggeration, or of contradiction.... this is where we are in America right now. In this hour revival for the church is not an option, it is Revival or Funeral.

Our Gracious God Calls To Us

Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Jun 23, 2006
