Is there hope for the next generation in America? We hear the stats about how young people are turning away from Christianity in droves. While the stats are real, we also see real signs of a move of God among Gen Z and students on college campuses. There are pockets of awakening, prayer, discipleship and evangelism all across our nation.On this episode of the Jesus Movement podcast, Matthew Lilley talks with special guest Niko Peele, the founder and director of Ignite Movement, a network of revival-oriented campuses ministries across America. As Niko shares, you will discover:Testimonies about how God is moving among young peopleThe biblical and historic patterns of how to see revival and awakeningImportant prayer points for how we can be praying for students and college campusesLearn more about Niko and Ignite Movement at http://ignitemvmt.comListen to the Jesus Movement on your favorite podcast app - http://awakenthedawn.com/podcast/Give to ATD to support the podcast - https://awakenthedawn.com/giveHost a tent event in your city with Tent America - http://tentamerica.org/Join Revive School - https://www.reviveschool.com/

Revival is coming, and you can be a part of it. On this episode, Lee M. Cummings shares two incredible prophetic visions about what God wants to in the Church, particularly in North America. Pastors, intercessors and revivalists... tune in!Along with these encouraging prophetic insights, Lee shares about his journey of planting and pastoring Radiant Church in Kalamazoo, MI and overseeing the Radiant Network of churches across the United States.Matthew Lilley and Lee discuss the importance of prayer in the local church. Should prayer be the main course or simply a "spice" that we add to all the ministry that we do? Should extravagant worship and prayer be relegated to parachurch ministries? We believe God wants to restore the priority of prayer and His presence right into the local churches.Listen on your favorite podcast app - http://awakenthedawn.com/podcast/Give to ATD to support the podcast - https://awakenthedawn.com/giveHost a tent event in your city with Tent America - http://tentamerica.org/Join Revive School - https://www.reviveschool.com/

How can we shift from a man-centered church culture to a Jesus-centered church culture? What will it take to stop depending on programs & personalities and instead depend on God's active presence in our midst?In this incredible teaching, Michael Miller from the Upperroom in Dallas, TX lays out a blueprint and a cry for local Christian communities to submit to what he calls "Jesus' active leadership." This is an environment where we are hosting his presence with worship and prayer, sensitive to the leading of the Holy Spirit and then following as He leads.This was recorded live at an Awaken the Dawn conference in Kansas City a few years ago with a group of pastors and ministry leaders. When this teaching was over, the Holy Spirit began to move in power, with an extended time of just singing and praying (no musicians). We pray that you also encounter God's presence and power as you listen!While this talk was aimed at leaders, we felt like Michael's amazing insights and passionate teaching would be an encouragement to anyone who wants to be a part of what Jesus is doing in the Church in this season.Listen on your favorite podcast app - http://awakenthedawn.com/podcast/Give to ATD to support the podcast - https://awakenthedawn.com/giveHost a tent event in your city with Tent America - http://tentamerica.org/Join Revive School - https://www.reviveschool.com/

How can we be a part of the Jesus Movement in our day? What is the Holy Spirit speaking as we head into 2023? In this episode of the Jesus Movement podcast, David Bradshaw and Matthew Lilley discuss some exciting things that God is speaking to Awaken the Dawn, and what it means for the body of Christ at large.

As we align our lives and churches to the values we find in the book of Acts, we will begin to see the same kind of explosive supernatural activity that the early church experienced.Be sure to stay tuned in until the very end for some major updates from David for Awaken the Dawn!David Bradshaw's book - https://amzn.to/3BSAjdFMatthew Lilley's book - https://amzn.to/3WyfoEvEpisode 7 with Gio Munoz from Tampa - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXT5XP4bugAListen on your favorite podcast app - http://awakenthedawn.com/podcast/Give to ATD to support the podcast - https://awakenthedawn.com/giveHost a tent event in your city with Tent America - http://tentamerica.org/Join Revive School - https://www.reviveschool.com/
