I'm reading with fascination stories about the ongoing Asbury revival. What is it? Students at Asbury University in Kentucky have been singing and praying continuously for 10 days. People are flying in from all over the world. Everyone Needs a Rabbi is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.
It’s crazy seeing this photo. I went to a public school near there and we would host our concerts at that location often. Some of my family went to Asbury. I remember when Ichthus festival was in town. It either coincided with one of our breaks or kids took off school for the event. I never went. While I didn’t follow any of the Christian life tho my family was and half of them are still preachers, I converted to Judaism a few years ago. I really do wish there was a Jewish revival. I would like to think all the lost Jewish souls would find their way back home or convert when they’re ready (if they believe more towards Judaism and want to become Jewish).
Thank you for sharing.
Rabbi, As you said, the pendulum swings both ways. I hope the renewal catches the imagination of many. D
