• Supernatural life is normal in the kingdom of God
• Revival requires risk, hunger, and surrender
• God often works outside of our understanding—but never outside His nature
• You don’t need to be perfect to be chosen—just available
• Revivalists don’t fit in; they stand out for love, truth, and power
