Christ-Centered Revival is Not an Event
It is how we live with Jesus every moment, and in every season of this life
Real Accounts of How God’s Word and His Spirit are Transforming Lives.
“I was at a particularly low point in my life when I was made aware of Jennifer’s class. I wasn’t sure what to expect. What I received was Jesus! I had wanted to understand the Bible so I could share it with others. This study style allowed me to engage with Jesus through the Bible in a deep way. I am forever being changed to look more like Jesus. Personal Bible study paired with journaling has transformed me. It has created the depth of understanding Scripture and closeness with Jesus that I had been longing for.”

“I have been in a weekly Revival Group for nearly 2 years! Although I struggle to read the Word regularly on my own, the weekly groups have been a lifeline for me. They are a rich time of fellowship as we study the Word together. I have especially grown in my understanding of the Old Testament, where before, I was too intimidated to study it. As I study Scripture on my own now, the Holy Spirit is revealing this Treasure to me. I believe this tool can help all followers of Jesus grow in our ability to hear directly from the Lord and know Him more deeply.”
Bridget
“The Revival Plan study has helped me to understand and deepen my relationship with Jesus. I love to know all the details, and when we read a scripture, it is amazing to see how all the different books of the Bible all tie together, which is so helpful. Studying Jesus’ relationships and His teachings to the people of his day is still what He wants us to know today, and we can know it through His Word! Realizing His overwhelming love and patience for me is humbling. It deepens my trust and my love for Him more and more.”

“The Personal Revival Plan has been such a blessing during this season of my walk with the Lord. This study method has helped to refine areas of my heart through the Word of God by His Spirit. The focus is not just getting through a reading plan, but rather, the focus is on interacting with the Living God in a deep, intimate relationship through His Word. He has allowed me to see blind spots of my heart that have been hardened, and areas of sin I am still struggling with. I am learning to rest in Him, as I wait for His timing. I have come to appreciate more deeply His sacrifice for me, and His love, mercy and forgiveness. All of Scripture points to Jesus, from beginning to end. As I read the Word of God, the Word of God reads my heart. This is how we can learn to commune with our Creator. You won’t regret it!”
Jonathan
“Using the Revival Plan has been transformative and enriching. Each day is filled with profound insights, and as I reflected on Scripture, my eyes were opened to the beauty and depth of God’s Word. I am growing not only in knowledge, but also in my relationship with God. Even on days I did not study, I felt encouraged to continue with the plan. It wasn’t about studying the Bible each day; the emphasis is learning to apply its timeless truths to my daily life. I have now been following the plan for about 9 months and I am filled with gratitude for how it has enriched my walk with Jesus.”
Anna
“Countless times I’ve attempted to read through the Bible in a year. On the first day of January, I would begin with great enthusiasm and tell myself, “This is the year I’ll do it!” After a couple of months, I’d invariably miss days, try to catch up, fall behind, feel like a failure, and finally give up. Starting the Personal Revival Reading Plan in 2023 was a breakthrough for me. Why? Because there is grace! Now if I miss a day, I pick up the next time on the reading for that day, without looking back. Reading God’s Word on this plan and journaling my responses is so rewarding that my enthusiasm only grows, and I can’t wait to find out what the Lord will teach me next.”
Nancy
“I have been a Christian as long as I can remember, and have loved the Lord for many years, but it wasn’t until I began regularly spending time in the word of God that my relationship with him became real.
I have come to learn that a one sided relationship is not a relationship at all, but with a true friend, it takes both parties listening and speaking to each other to have a conversation.
That is exactly what God has done for me through the Personal Revival Plan. It has given me a practice to turn a one-sided, distant and self-centered co-existence with God into a thriving and life-giving relationship.
The Personal Revival Plan is prayer, worship, Father-led therapy, all rolled into one! Through Spirit guided teaching of the bible in tandem with authentic and honest transaction through journaling, God is actively transforming me and my life.
It’s as easy to use as a devotional, but with the necessary context devotions often leave out. It’s as educational as a theology book without any of the third party commentary drowning out or complicating what God is trying to communicate directly to me. It’s more edifying than a sermon or a podcast because it’s me, choosing daily to give the Lord a platform to speak directly into my heart, life, and my relationships.
As I continue to dig in and interact with what the scripture is telling me through prayer and journaling, I have learned to hear and recognize the voice of God. John 10:27 says “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.” It is our responsibility if we call ourselves believers to recognize the voice of God, to allow him to know us in an intimate and personal way, and to follow him. Like Jesus says in Matthew 16: 24 “…If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.” I’ve learned that it’s not enough to go to church on Sunday and not cheat on your spouse or steal.
A real relationship with our Lord requires sacrifices on our part. He requires of us our past, our sins, our pride and our ego. He will not take them from us, we must give them. This is worship. The first practical step of picking up your cross is, I have learned, to carve out daily time with the Lord reading His word.
I am now able to look back on my life with understanding of how God uses all things for good, even my own sin, brokenness and trauma. He has healed my hurts, given me peace and allowed me to shed the shame of awful sins I have carried, both the sins I have committed and the sins committed against me. I have begun to see the gifts of the spirit pop up in my life. My relationship to the world around me, my work, my job, my husband and family, He has changed all of that for the better.
Being transformed by scripture is not for the faint of heart. I was spiritually starved and biblically illiterate when I began journaling. I continue to have quiet time despite the days I miss; the days I don’t understand, or the days I am frustrated, hurting and want to hide from Him. He gives me grace for the days I miss, and uses what I read on days I don’t understand to build my knowledge of Him. He continually comes along side me and lifts my chin when I am frustrated or hurting. He wakes me before my alarm, and He often rewards me on those busy days with quick but intensely powerful revelations or at least a boost of my mood and energy for the rest of the day.
I can confidently say now that my life has been transformed, being fed solid food directly from my heavenly Father. Like Hebrews 5:14 says “But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil.”
