The Jesus Conversations Podcast

JAU Zoom Meeting 3-12-23 ”Why does God use messed up people ?”

The Bible is the story of messed up people being used by God to do great things. In contemporary history, it is still the same. The story of "The Jesus Revolution" is another example. Why is it that God seems to prefer to spark great revivals with broken, dysfunctional humans?

JAU Zoom Meeting 3-5-23 ”What became of the Jesus Revolution?”

America has witnessed some great revivals over the centuries, beginning with the Great Awakening in the 1730's. One of the next great moves of God was in the 1960's in America, called by Billy Graham "The Jesus Revolution". Recently, another revival has broken out at Ashbury University. What becomes of these revivals or awakenings? What effect have they had on our culture and Christianity? Our group takes on these questions in today's episode.

JAU Zoom Meeting 2-5-23 "Living outside of the sacred doctrines”
