Bad things happen to good godly people 
Even those advancing the kingdom
We gain confidence when we see others take a stand 
News spreads (good and bad)
Imperial guard 
As you probably know, an oxymoron is the joini

Philippians

Revive is a gathering of young adults (18-28) to pursue our joy in Jesus.  We believe God has saved us by grace through faith in the cross of Jesus to enable us to enjoy making much of Him for eternity.  As the enemy attacks and the world tempts our flesh with every fleeting pleasure of sin, we gather to join together in the fight to find our greatest satisfaction in God above all things.  For “God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in Him.” -John Piper
