The Cost of Coming Home

At a maximum security prison in Las Vegas, 115 out of 200 inmates were baptized in a single night. Jennie Allen has been in over 40 rooms she calls revival—places where mass response to the gospel, mass repentance, and mass baptisms happened. She has watched God move on college campuses where students get baptized in fountains where they used to get drunk on their 21st birthdays. And she has noticed something that college students and inmates share: desperation. "They've tried everything the world has to offer, and they're over it," she says. "They're sick of it. They don't want it anymore. They want God."

The Pattern That Runs Through the Whole Bible

Allen recently read the Bible in 31 days—three hours a day. She is a Dallas Theological Seminary graduate who knows her Bible, but reading it that fast showed her something she had missed. "You get the big picture," she says. "It's like you've been watching episodes instead of the whole movie."

Show Notes

Revival begins with repentance.

In Luke 15, Jesus tells the story of two sons who are both far from the heart of their father. One runs to a distant country while the other stays home but is blinded by his own pride. Yet the invitation for both is the same: come home.

In this message, Jennie Allen challenges us to throw off the sin and weight holding us back, bring what has been hidden into the light and believe the truth of the gospel: there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. Whether you have wandered far or simply forgotten how desperately you need God, the Father is ready to welcome you home.
