Consider Revival II: Hezekiah’s Repentance
The story of Hezekiah is one of God’s faithfulness. The king came from a line of wicked fathers who abandoned God. But Hezekiah’s heart was turned toward God and He drew near to His people. We would call that a revival. In this episode, John and Steve Crampton discuss this Old Testament revival and how we can prepare for revival but never obligate God to it.
