What it takes to see revival happen

Aug 16, 2026    Mark Stephenson

This is the first week of our fall sermon series entitled “Perspectives from Prison: The Letter to the Ephesians.” In this series we are walking through Paul’s letter to the Ephesians that he wrote while under house arrest in Rome. This week we start in the book of Acts to examine Paul’s relationship with the city and the people of Ephesus. Paul ministered there for three years on his third missionary journey and saw revival break out. How did revival break out there? And what are some of the fruits of revival today? Let’s watch and learn what it takes to experience revival and examine our hearts to see if we are willing to endure the cost of revival.
