The U.S. has seen its share of revivals and awakenings over the past few hundred years. The recent happenings at Asbury University just so happen to coincide with the release of Jesus Revolution, a new film on religious revival that swept from California throughout the country in the ’60s and ’70s.
Asbury University students showed up to their regular Wednesday chapel service on Feb. 8, and they haven’t left since.
