Joseph Willis Symposium featuring Kevin Adams wraps up tonight at Louisiana College

March 3, 2016

By Message Staff

PINEVILLE – God speaks to Christians in many ways and places.

What comes next is a simple but challenging requirement … saying yes to God, no matter what the cost.

“God speaks to us in all sorts of places, in all sorts of ways,” Kevin Adams told Louisiana College students and others on Wednesday evening. “And the challenge for us tonight is, are we going to say yes Lord.”

Adams’ message was part of a three-day Joseph Willis Symposium and Revival that ends tonight at LC. Adams is pastor of East Baptist Church in Lynn, Mass., and a Welsh revival historian.

During his three days at LC, Adams has spoken each night during the revival, as well as in chapel and classes on campus. He also was part of a panel discussion Wednesday evening, March 2, about the subject of revival.

Among his topics during the symposium was how God used 26-year-old Evan Roberts to spread revival in 1904 in Wales. The revival resulted in 100,000 people coming to accept Christ as their personal Lord and Savior.

He emphasized to the crowd, which consisted mostly of LC students, that not all of them will have a testimony like Roberts. But having a testimony, he told the audience, is important because it can make a difference wherever they may be or may go.

“God worked through this young man,” Adams said. “God made a difference through this young man and he wants to make a difference through you.

“When you say yes to God, God will use you in a fresh way,” he added. “He will begin to work. That relationship will become real as you respond to him.”

The revival ends tonight at 6:30 in Guinn Auditorium on campus and is open to the public. There is no cost to attend.
