WHO WE ARE
Centered in the beautiful city of Bulawayo, Zimbabwe, Revival is a fountain of living water to a people thirsty for life, healing and hope.
Led by Senior Pastor Kevin Nel and his team of pastors and elders, Revival networks with others within the body of Christ to empower believers to live authentic, Spirit-led lives as we release, for God’s glory, His flavours and colours into our world.
Characterised by vibrant worship, coupled with solid Biblical teaching, this multicultural, cross-generational, Spirit-filled church plays an active role in facilitating life transformation for individuals, families and the communities in which we are placed.
By God’s grace, we live ‘revival’!
OUR VISION
Based on the words of Jesus in His ‘Sermon on the Mount’ (Matt 5:13-26), our vision is to release, for God’s glory, His flavours and colours into the world.
This is outworked through the threefold process of attracting, discipline and releasing saints so that ‘as each part does its own special work, it helps the other parts grow so that the whole body is healthy and growing and full of love. (Ephesians 4:16)
Our Mission
Our Core Beliefs
We hold fast to a Biblical world-view and outlook on life, based on the belief that the Bible is God’s perfect and reliable revelation designed to instruct and guide all people.
Our core beliefs relate to the existence, origins, character and purpose of God; the origins and purposes of people; the need for and means to eternal salvation; the responsibility and content of moral and spiritual truth; and the existence, powers and role of various spiritual beings. These are expressed, in part, through our statement of faith.
Responsibility: Living to Serve
We are all given gifts for the benefit of the body. Everyone wants to be on a winning team and ministry teams create opportunities for believers to play a practical role in the body as well as use their gifts to edify and build up His body so that it is healthy, growing and full of love.
Leadership: Training, Equipping and Releasing
Leadership development gives the church legs… we must never stop training, equipping and encouraging leaders.
Every leader is a minister of Jesus. Every leader is a pastor with congregants.
Leadership development takes place on a regular basis.
Hospitality: Love Demonstrated
Without love we achieve nothing! (1 Corinthians 13) At Revival we seek to operate in and through the love of God in our personal capacity, in the home and in the church. (Romans 12:9 – 13)
This love defines who we are, our words, actions and attitudes which, in turn, makes others feel ‘cared for’ and ‘at home’. we are called to be hospitable.
Our prayer is that through our love, you are drawn to and experience this wonderful love for yourself.
WHAT WE DO
As a church family, we come alongside you on your journey of life, by faith, to help you discover your identity in Christ Jesus and empower you to live whole, healed and fulfilled lives as you grow in maturity, led by His Spirit, to the glory of The Father.
OUR COMMUNITY
We are ordinary everyday people who have taken our everyday ordinary lives and placed them before God as an offering. Embracing what God has done for us is the best thing that we can do for Him.
