Imagine hundreds of women united with one goal – to arise in God! Many lives were impacted during the weekend of Arise 2012 at World Revival Church. The testimonies speak for themselves…
“I came very guarded. I’m a single mom of 4 and I thought I could do it on my own. Pastor Kathy nailed me… He [God} broke me down and then he built me up. I’m a different person… I’m going to be okay!” Carey, Kansas
There was “fire in the house” this weekend as Eric Nuzum Thomason joined Steve and Kathy Gray on Daystar TV. Long-time worship leader of the “Smithton Outpouring,” it was like a family reunion to have Eric at World Revival Church.
Eric’s first time leading worship was the historic night when revival first struck Pastor Steve and Kathy and the congregation in the tiny town of Smithton, Missouri. The revival had a world-wide impact with over 60 nations and ¼ million people visiting.
“Arise and shine!” These were the words of J.D. King, Director of the World Revival Network of Ministries exhorting the World Revival Church congregation to carry revival in a greater way.
He encouraged a “power evangelism” that pushes back darkness and brings rescue to people around us. “People are looking for deliverance… and God’s light is in your hands,” he shared.
He added, “What is your response to the evil around you?”
Many from WRC are responding with outreach…
Revival is alive and well at World Revival Church… in fact, it’s exploding in God’s people! With Pastor Steve Gray’s direction, visitors and congregation alike are encouraged to move forward and never stagnate in God. Saturday’s service ignited an explosive propulsion into the new year.
What does the year 2012 have in store for you? What if you could start this year out with hope and excitement for a better future? Let your faith be stirred with these testimonies of new beginnings found through revival:
Mike and Dana moved to Kansas City from Montana just six months ago to be a part of revival. Mike shared, “We were being fed [through live stream], but something was missing. When we got here we could actually press in to worship, and we could run to the altar.”
The holidays can be a stressful time for your finances, but many in revival are experiencing just the opposite! Let your faith be stirred with these financial testimonies:
• Timbrel, along with her husband Erik, started a cleaning business while still maintaining a part-time job. Timbrel began to feel the spirit nudging her to quit her part time job to focus on her new business.
People visit World Revival Church from literally all around the world, many times at great expense. For them, it’s an investment in their communities and in their futures.
It’s not true revival unless it touches all ages! That’s the belief of Pastor Steve and Kathy Gray as they lead the revival at World Revival Church.
“It’s not a little light in their little hands,” shared Pastor Steve. “It’s the light of the world in their hands!”
Children from second grade through middle school joined Pastor Steve and Kathy in the ministry time during Friday night’s Daystar service as powerful demonstrations of what God can do through kids.
“…Whatever it takes, you gotta get here!” Dale shared this past Friday night during the live Daystar broadcast of World Revival Church. It was Dale and his wife Tracy’s 30th year anniversary and they made Kansas City their anniversary destination.
Tracy described how they connected to revival, “My four year-old grandson watched the program on Daystar and said, ‘Nana, God is in that church!’ We wanted to come and experience it.”
That same urgency compels visitors from around the world to “get here” to revival.

History was made at World Revival Church this weekend as churches around the world connected for online interactive services streamed from Kansas City. Congregations in Canada, Finland, Holland and the U.S. were linked as a result of Pastor Steve Gray’s desire to unite believers worldwide in revival.
Worshipers gathered from 17 states and three countries this past week at World Revival Church for the Respond Worship Conference. End result: God was exalted and lives were dramatically impacted with a fresh perspective of worship!
Day sessions began with worship led by guests Roy Fields, Jennie Riddle, Michael Farren, Jaye Thomas and WRC’s Dustin Smith. Evening worship times added to the cumulative effect of roaring worship ascending to God, and testimony after testimony coming forth as attendees experienced God’s presence in powerful ways.
Join global worshipers this week for the Respond Worship Conference, beginning Wednesday, October 26. The conference features worship leaders and songwriters who have developed a responsive lifestyle towards God – and are experiencing powerful moves of God in their lives and ministries.
Roy Fields has been carrying revival to the nations and is excited about the chance to impart to Kansas City friends. Roy shares “The entire worship experience will be amplified in these three days of one on one, face to face training.”
