At the end of the 3-day conference on Friday (1/5/24), Pastor Louie Giglio of Passion City Church and the founder of the Passion movement shared on social media:
“Passion is more than music. More than events. Passion is a generation living for His Name. Thank You God for these days. Join me in praying for the students returning to their cities, campuses, and countries today, that they would live for God and His glory.”
Pastor Zach Meerkreebs, whose sermon from inside the chapel at Asbury University was the beginning of a 16-day outpouring from God that many have described as revival, was asked at Passion 2024 to give his takeaway from what happened at the campus in Wilmore, Kentucky.
“On February 8, God’s generosity poured out on a small little college,” Meerkreebs said. “It wasn’t good preaching. That’s for sure. I texted my wife after I preached that ‘I laid a stinker’ and I would be home soon for a nap. I did not get home for a nap. For 16 days, it was God’s pouring out of His Spirit. It was unbelievable.”
