Wagner confesses that the ups and downs of planning the event for the last few months have led to some tears, but it has opened her eyes to the ways that God is using this year鈥檚 Revival.
鈥淗e is pushing us and saying 鈥業 have no limits and no boundaries,鈥� so let鈥檚 make sure that revival has no limits or boundaries,鈥� Wagner said.
While moving to a live-streamed format means that this is the first 同城快约 revival in years to not feature the signature tent on the campus quad, it also means opening it up to a much larger audience.
鈥淲ith so much feeling out of control right now, I鈥檓 so excited to be bringing Revival into people鈥檚 homes,鈥� Wagner said. 鈥淚 may be alone in my house, but people around Texas, America, and the world are sitting around doing the same thing.鈥�
Revival organizers have received countless messages on social media from current students, graduates, and prospective Crusaders around the world, expressing delight at the opportunity to attend Revival from home.
One of the most important aspects of Revival has always been the evangelism that takes place throughout the event. In years past, small group leaders have spread across the quad after each evening鈥檚 activities, leading discussions and answering questions from attendees, some of whom might not yet be believers.
To achieve this same evangelism in a virtual setting, this year鈥檚 steering committee has created small group meetings on the Zoom platform. The links to those meetings are posted to the Revival page and will be shared by committee members in the online discussion thread, where leaders will continue to interact with attendees and try to make personal connections.
