‘A Sweet Move of God’: Alex Kendrick Describes Revival That Broke Out at Lee University
Filmmaker Alex Kendrick is known for faith-building movies like “War Room,” “Overcomer,” “Courageous,” and “Fireproof.” He’s also an encourager who delivers powerful addresses on faith and the issues of the day. Kendrick recently revealed he visited Lee University, a private Christian college in Cleveland, Tennessee, and took part in the revival unfolding there — a powerful gathering of students, faculty, and community members. Kendrick, who has three children who attend the school, joined CBN’s Faithwire to describe what he saw at the campus revival.
“We stayed in there for a few hours and I noticed no one was orchestrating anything. No one was upfront with any agenda,” he said. “You had a variety of people sharing quick testimonies, reading scripture from various points in the room. Someone would stand up and start reading a Psalm or a passage from one of the Gospels, and everyone would agree. Then someone else would randomly start singing a hymn, a worship song, a praise, and then the group would join in.” Kendrick and his family stayed for about two hours and he truly “loved it.” “It was just a sweet move of God,” he added. “It was obvious to me that the room was multiple denominations.” Despite any differences, there was a profound unity observed, as everyone acknowledged the Lord and their need for Him in their lives.
Kendrick also heard a story about a woman who was deaf being healed. “[One woman] said, ‘We had a group praying over her and then her ears opened up,’ and I just was like, ‘Wow.'” Another woman purportedly experienced a healing in her knee. Kendrick said he has learned over the course of his ministry to be “very careful about putting God in a box” when it comes to assessing how he “pours his Spirit out.” The actor and producer also said he has personally spoken with college students who felt the Lord profoundly touched their hearts during the events at Lee University as well as Asbury University. “I see people coming clean before the Lord,” he said. “When I see conviction and people’s desire go up to be right with the Lord, the Spirit is at work, and so that’s what we have to pray for.” Watch what Kendrick had to say.
