“The Asbury Revival” started as a normal morning church service two Wednesdays ago at Asbury University, but students are still there as of Sunday.
Aniston McClellan, who traveled from Nashville to participate, marveled there were “no big lights or big media or anything like that. It’s proof the Lord is working. Right now” — calling it “amazing to see.”McCall wrote that “some are calling this a revival, and I know that in recent years that term has become associated with political activism and Christian nationalism.
The school announced that due to the swelling crowds, Sunday would be the last public evening service.Starting Friday, the school plans to encourage worshippers to take their prayers with them and spread the message elsewhere,“As part of Asbury’s intention of encouraging and commissioning others to ‘go out’ and share with others what they have experienced, evening services will be hosted at other locations and no longer held at Asbury University,” the school said in a statement.
