Hope and Hopelessness in the Revival Generation: Part IV

i thought you said something about the Revival Generation.

Inside the church, a God inspired hope was offered. It was God inspired but poorly pastored, and executed but it is not over.

Generation X was given a name at last. It was given a name and a mandate.

Revival Generation- Joel's Army, The Last Days Hope, History Makers
The children were told that they would accomplish what the parent's hadn't. The problem was that they were not told how to do it or even, really, where to start. They were given freedom, but no boundaries. The were given leadership, but no authority. They were given expectation but not equipping. They were given a mandate, but no timeline. Anointing without character. Holiness without Grace. These are all gross generalizations but are a picture of where many find themselves now.

As always there is reaction: We need more anointing! read your bible less, worship more.
We need more discipline! Emotionalism has no place in the church! Revival is just hype!


Revival hasn't happened (yet is my opinion) and that has left a bit of a problem. What is a Revival Generation without a revival? Oh-oh, we're back to Gen-X again. No identity. We feel like failures but we don't know what (exactly) it is that we are supposed to be accomplishing. What is Revival. How do we get there? What is our purpose and identity.
