Is Asbury Revival Real?

On Feb. 8th, 2023, students of Asbury University in Kentucky gathered for their Wednesday chapel service. At the end of the service, the altar was flooded with over 100 students and the service has continued without concluding for days. Since Wednesday, people have come from all over the country to observe and even participate in what is gong on at Asbury. This has gone viral on social media with many people affirming that it’s a revival, testifying from personal experience that it’s genuine, legitimate, and from God. Others are skeptical saying that it’s experience-driven emotionalism. I was able to attend the service around 8am on Sunday morning, and I went away with some positive takeaways but also some serious concerns.
