Sarah Thomas Baldwin – The Asbury Revival

God‘s Story Podcast

‘On February 8, 2023, the Holy Spirit sparked a flame at the end of an Asbury University Chapel Service. Over the next 16 days, what began as a local experience within the confines of Asbury’s campus soon flared into the blaze of a global movement that captivated millions through the viral power of social media’.

Brent talks with Dr. Sarah Thomas Baldwin about her new book from Invite Press called ‘Generation Awakened: An Eyewitness Account of the Powerful Outpouring of God at Asbury’.

Sarah has served in Christian higher education for almost 30 years as a student affairs, professional, university pastor and vice president.
