Theme Interpretation
Theme: Revival Generation
What is revival?
What do you think of when you hear the word “revival”?
Revival is more than an emotional high
Revival is the spiritual awakening of God’s people to their true nature and purpose.
It is getting serious about our faith.
What do you think is required for you to experience revival personally?
This week = Revival requires prayer, repentance and obedience
Call on students to read the following verses
14 if my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land.
19 Repent therefore, and turn back, that your sins may be blotted out, 20 that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord, and that he may send the Christ appointed for you, Jesus,
What will it take for you to experience revival personally this week at camp?
What does your generation need to do to be known as the revival generation?
You have an opportunity to impact...
Classmates
Youth group memebers
Friends
Other students involved in extracurricular activities
Family Member
Neighbors
Etc.
The question is: Will the impact be for Christ or some other temporary, worldly thing?
Invite students to read the following verses:
4 We will not hide them from their children,
but tell to the coming generation
the glorious deeds of the Lord, and his might,
and the wonders that he has done.
4 One generation shall commend your works to another,
and shall declare your mighty acts.
If you guys get on fire for the Lord, imagine how that might impact our church and community
How can our church experience revival when we get back home?
