The State of the Kingdom

Tonight, you’ll hear the President of the United States deliver a State of the Union address—an update on how the nation is doing. You’ll hear about the economy, national security, foreign policy, and legislative agendas.

But far more important—and far more eternal—is the State of the Kingdom.

Because while governments rise and fall, while administrations change and headlines shift, the Kingdom of God is unshakable.

And right now, we are living in one of the most spiritually charged moments in modern American history.

While media narratives focus on chaos, division, and cultural decline, something deeper is happening beneath the surface.

The State of the Kingdom is strong.

Across America, church attendance is rising again. Sanctuaries that sat half-empty just a few years ago are filling up. Young people—especially Gen Z—are asking deeper questions about eternity, identity, and truth. They’re exhausted by shallow ideologies and digital noise. They’re searching for something ancient. Something rooted. Something eternal.

And they’re finding Jesus.

Bible sales have surged in a remarkable way. In an age dominated by AI, algorithms, and endless scrolling, Americans are buying Bibles again. Opening them. Highlighting them. Building their lives on them.

You can’t manufacture that kind of hunger.

Prayer gatherings are multiplying. Worship nights are overflowing. College campuses are seeing spontaneous baptisms. Athletes are declaring Christ boldly. Musicians are lifting His name without apology.

This is not accidental.

This is not hype.

This is awakening.

As America approaches her 250th birthday, we’re being reminded of something foundational: this nation was not sustained by power alone—but by prayer. Not by military strength—but by moral conviction. Not by comfort—but by dependence on Almighty God.

That’s why this summer we are launching the “Roots of Revival” tour—traveling to historic places of awakening across this nation—to remind America of her spiritual heritage. To stand where revival fires once burned. To tell the stories of repentance, prayer, and outpouring that shaped our history.

Because revival isn’t new to America. It’s in our DNA.

There is a renewed awareness rising across this land that politics cannot save us. Technology cannot redeem us. Wealth cannot satisfy us.

Only Jesus.

The State of the Kingdom is not measured by polls—it’s measured by repentance. It’s not measured by markets—it’s measured by altars. And right now, altars are being rebuilt across America.

Yes, darkness is loud.

Yes, opposition is real.

But hunger is rising faster than hostility.

And that hunger is going to gather.

On May 16th, we will lift up the name of Jesus together on the National Mall for Let Us Worship.

And on May 17th, we will rededicate this nation back to God as we approach 250 years of American history.

Not as a political rally.

Not as a protest.

But as an altar.

Because when God’s people humble themselves and pray, He responds.

So as we move toward this historic milestone in our nation—and as we carry revival history forward through the Roots of Revival tour—maybe the greatest celebration won’t just be fireworks in the sky…

But fire in the hearts of a generation returning to their first love.

The State of the Kingdom?

Alive.

Awakening.

Advancing.

And Jesus is still on the throne.
