CLEMSON, SC. (Dec. 3, 2025)—UniteUS founder Tonya Prewett described the night simply: “6,000 students gathered for Unite Clemson … Hundreds went all in with Jesus and followed up with water baptism!! It’s revival!!”
The November rally is the latest sign of a spiritual awakening sweeping college campuses nationwide under the banner of UniteUS — a movement birthed in 2023.
Key Outcomes of the Event
Over 6,000 attendees on the Clemson campus.
“Hundreds” of students reportedly surrendered their lives to Christ, indicating large-scale professions of faith.
78 individuals publicly baptized at the rally.
Participants described the event as a night of powerful worship, prayer, and commitment — a sign many consider as evidence of revival.
“It’s not a burden to follow Jesus … It’s actually joyful. It’s actually freedom.” — speaker Bryce Crawford at the event

CBN News has produced a documentary on how the Lord is working in the lives of college students and young adults. It’s called “Revival Generation” and you can stream it or order a DVD by clicking the link below.
More than 8,000 college students gathered together to seek God and worship Jesus on Tuesday night at the University of Tennessee for the UniteUS campus event, the ministry reports.
The ministry reports that approximately 500 students responded to the salvation message, and many were baptized right outside of the arena.
“We are blown away by what God did tonight at the University of Tennessee with over 8,000 students gathering to lift the name of Jesus and over 500 salvations,” reads a video.
Young students at the Knoxville school are not the only ones praising Jesus openly on campus, but are also testifying about how His Spirit is moving among their friends.
“Hundreds, we witnessed hundreds get baptized tonight,” one student shared in a video circulating on social media. “[We] witnessed thousands changed for the name of Jesus. There is a new thing coming to this generation, and UniteUS is a big part of it.”
Jennie Allen from the “IF: Gathering” often preaches to the students at the UniteUS events. She wrote on Instagram that she was in awe of how God is moving across college campuses.
“Yay!!! God keeps doing it,” she commented on one video.
Allen recently told CBN News Digital that what she and other UniteUS leaders are encountering a modern-day “miracle.”
“This is just all a miracle,” Allen said.
“So many kids come forward, confess sin, follow Jesus, and we’re baptizing usually into the morning,” she said. “And it’s unlike anything I’ve ever seen. It’s unlike anything I’ve even been bold enough to pray for … until recently.”
“You can just see all over the stadium, huddles of kids, wiping tears, nodding, praying, holding each other. I mean, it’s so precious and brave,” she added.

‘Hunger for Understanding’: Over 28,000 Baptized Nationwide During Pentecost Revival Event

Over 28,000 people were baptized at hundreds of gatherings across the United States on Pentecost Sunday as part of a nationwide revival event.
In partnership with Baptize America, over 600 churches hosted more than 1,000 separate events where people professed their faith in Jesus and were baptized.
Mark Francey, pastor at Oceans Church of California and the man behind Baptize America, told The Christian Post that his inspiration for the event “burst out of a time of prayer I was having with Jesus a couple of years ago, when I had an open vision.
Francey saw Pirate’s Cove in California as the starting point, “and this progression, from Southern California to all of California, to America, and to the ends of the earth.”
“I heard that small still voice, which many Christians are familiar with, just placing these really clear thoughts in my heart,” he recounted. “The key moment was when His voice said to do it on the day of Pentecost. That’s when the church was born.”
“It felt like He wanted to make Pentecost Sunday a day when the Christian world would truly celebrate, and maybe even the lost world would know that this is a day they can walk into a church and get baptized anywhere.”
While the exact number of people baptized at the nationwide event was still to be determined, Francey told CP that it was between 28,000 and 29,000 people, possibly as many as 30,000.
There was also an international component to the event, with around 1,100 people being baptized via Baptize Canada, as well as smaller events being held in Paraguay and Sweden.

‘Hundreds Accepting Jesus Christ’: UniteUS Collegiate Revival Arrives at SMU
Another signal fire of revival was ignited on an American college campus last night, this time at Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas.
The UniteUS movement shared the truth of God’s saving grace with thousands of college students at SMU. “Last night was special. There’s nothing like lifting up the name of Jesus with thousands of college students,” the ministry wrote on Instagram.
By the end of the evening, hundreds reportedly said yes to Jesus.
“God moved in Moody Coliseum as hundreds of students came forward to make a decision for Christ!” the ministry reported. “Freedom found. Lives changed. God is moving in this generation!
In early February, UniteUS kicked off their first outreach of 2025 at the University of Kentucky, which is just 30 minutes from Asbury University where the first sparks of a new spiritual awakening were seen among American students in February of 2023.
More than 8,000 students packed Rupp Arena to worship Jesus and to hear a powerful gospel message. More than 2,000 students responded to that message about Jesus Christ, and many took part in spontaneous baptisms.
Then, in mid-February, an Ohio State revival event saw 6,500 students gather in The Schottenstein Center, where hundreds once again responded to an altar call.
At WVU, 5,000 students sought Jesus together, and nearly 1,000 responded to an altar call in search of “life-changing salvation.”
“We are blown away at how God moved tonight at the WVU Coliseum. Before visiting each campus, we pray and ask God to do what only He can do. And we saw that happen as the room filled up tonight with 5,000 students chasing after Him in Morgantown,” Tonya Prewett told CBN News producer Talia Wise.
UniteUS was birthed out of a desire to “lift the name of Jesus,” and it gained rapid momentum after its initial outreach at Auburn University’s Neville Arena in September 2023, where 5,000 students showed up to worship Jesus and 200 were spontaneously baptized in a nearby lake.
The evangelistic college campus movement is marked by worship, salvations, and water baptisms, and while it’s been garnering national attention for nearly two years, Prewett says it’s all about bringing glory to Jesus Christ.
She told CBN News last year that it is truly “a move of God.”
“I’m not capable of doing this, we’re not capable of doing this, it’s the hand of God. It’s way bigger than us,” Prewett explained.
The next UniteUS outreach will be held at Baylor on April 15.

‘Everybody Wants Prayer’: Pastor Reveals ‘Revival,’ Power of Faith Amid Horror of California Wildfires
Matthew Barnett, pastor and CEO of the Dream Center in Los Angeles, California, is seeing incredible spiritual hunger in the wake of devastating California wildfires that have killed at least 24 people and destroyed more than 12,000 structures.
Barnett, whose organization is feeding and housing those impacted by the inferno, told CBN News he has seen a massive outpouring of resources and volunteer staff — people from all walks of life who are flooding to his campus to help the Christian nonprofit bring relief.
In the process, these people are hearing — and experiencing — the Christian Gospel.
“They’re not just open,” Barnett said of the spiritual fervor unfolding. “They are telling you stuff that you’re not even asking them. I mean, they are volunteering … their lives … and, just by listening and asking them questions, and then you say … ‘God is with you.’”
Volunteers have been flooding to the Dream Center to help hand out food and resources — people from “every type of demographic you could imagine.”
“As people are working 10 hours a day so joyfully … I’m talking to them as they’re serving … we’ll play worship music and … they’ll be like, ‘I like the song. I never heard before. What is it?’” Barnett said. “And then we’re just talking about God while we’re working together with this whole new community.”
He said prayer has also been on full display, as he and volunteers ask individuals and families coming through the food line if they can pray for them.
As it turns out, the spiritual needs are as plentiful as the physical.
“Everybody wants prayer,” Barnett said. “It really is kind of a revival in action where people just want to know that God is there, but I’m really seeing it in a very unusual way through a lot of the volunteers rubbing shoulders all day long and asking questions … like, ‘Why do you do what you guys do?’”
He said some people go through the food line to be prayed for and to experience the positive, spirit-driven Dream Center staff and volunteers.
“It really is a gathering place, it’s a revival place, it’s a place where people are being told about Christ, it’s a place of people being prayed for,” Barnett said. “It really reminds me of an Acts 29 type of church in action.”
Right now, Barnett said the Dream Center is in phase one of its outreach, providing emergency food, housing, and guidance. As time goes on, there will be new, longitudinal needs that the organization will need to meet.
“We’re feeding people,” he said. “They’re coming through the line. We’re learning a lot about what they’ve lost.”
Despite Barnett’s longstanding work in Los Angeles helping the poor and those in need, he said this experience is different — and it’s something he’s not really prepared to tackle.
“I’ve never been encountered by anything like this,” he said.
Barnett said the Dream Center is planning to honor the hundreds and hundreds of volunteers who have shown up to help and plans to share the Gospel with them while expressing their gratitude.
“Serving is the greatest way to engage people that do not know the Lord because everybody can rally around that,” he said. “Everybody can get behind the fact that the Gospel inspires you to do great things and to love people in practical ways, and it’s an unbelievable open door to be able to share why you do it and what inspires you to make that change.”

America’s Coming Revival
When the first settlers landed on the shores of Virginia in 1607, they made a covenant to build a Godly nation. That pledge was all but forgotten some 150 years later, as thousands upon thousands of Americans headed west in search of new opportunities.
Historian and author Peter Marshall said, “The condition of society was not good.”
Crime was up. Alcoholism, prostitution, and gambling were widespread. These new pioneers sought riches rather than God, ideas of the enlightenment rather than His Word.
“Most Americans did not go to church,” said Stanley Burgess, a professor of Christian history.
And by the late 1700s, what was happening on college campuses like Yale become symptomatic of a nation that had lost sight of its spiritual mooring.
Marshall said, “The young students had gotten enamored of the French Revolution; you couldn’t find any Christianity on the Yale campus.”
Dr. Timothy Dwight, then the president of Yale College and a strong Christian, found the spiritual condition on campus so awful that he began to pray for the students.
His prayers were answered. By the summer of 1802, massive revival broke out at the college.
“Proof of the pudding was that, in succeeding graduating classes,” said Marshall, “the number of young men going into the Gospel ministry began to increase.”
The revival spread beyond the campus grounds. In one town after another, New Englanders began to reclaim the covenant their forefathers had made with God.
Burgess said, “They didn’t want a social religion so much as they wanted a personal one, a life with Christ. And when they found this, it spread rapidly.”
And not just in New England. As the boundaries of the nation moved westward, so did the revivals.
Camp meetings became the hallmark of the movement. Tens of thousands showed up in wagons, on horseback, and by foot in the Western Territories, to hear evangelists bring a message of repentance and salvation.
“They came to celebrate, they came to experience what was going on,” Burgess explained, “they came to be converted, they came to be part of God’s family.”
This period of renewal lasted for decades, and became known as America’s Second Great Awakening.
The most famous preacher of the time was Charles Finney, an Upstate New York lawyer-turned Presbyterian minister.
“It was said of Finney that he was personally responsible for the salvation of 500,000 Americans — and that’s a conservative figure,” Marshall said,
Churches were experiencing tremendous growth.
Finney and other revivalists believed that the Gospel did not just get people saved, but it was also a means of making the country better. The Second Great Awakening inspired a wave of social activism.
Marshall said, “Every single social ministry in America in the 19th century, the first mission to the deaf, the first ministry to the blind, the first prison reform, the temperance movement, and, of course, the biggest one out of them all, the anti-slavery movement, the women’s movement — all of these were started directly by evangelical Christians who had come to Jesus in the Second Great Awakening.”
Several societies were also created to spread the Gospel, including the American Bible Society.
Christians started orphanages, hospitals, and Sunday schools.
And in 1812, a group of students from western Massachusetts conducted the first overseas missionary journey.
“We felt a responsibility to people in regions beyond,” said Marshall.
The revival that started in the late 1790s lasted for some 50 years.
As in past times, God was using waves of revival to unite the nation and remind people of His covenant love.
“God has a purpose in these waves on the shore,” Burgess said. “Every wave is of value, of uniqueness, and of a commonality with other waves.”
Some 200 years after the Second Great Awakening, many whose spiritual heritage dates back to that great move of God, say the same call is going out today. For America to turn back to God, reclaim her spiritual heritage, and transform a new generation of Americans.

6,000 Mississippi State College Students ‘Experienced Freedom’ in Christ in Latest Revival Moment
Students at Mississippi State University say their lives are forever changed after experiencing “God’s love at work” during a massive worship event Monday.
Unite US reports that nearly 6,000 students worshipped together at Humphrey Coliseum on Oct.1.
The night was marked by powerful prayer, repentance, water baptisms, and an atmosphere “like Heaven.”
“Jesus met us tonight in Humphrey Coliseum,” the group wrote on Instagram. “Nearly 6,000 students worshipped together, confessed to sin that had been holding them back, and experienced freedom that can only be found in Him.”
“I believe this is the generation that will usher in the greatest move of God we’ve ever seen, and we’re seeing that,” Prewett said during a recent podcast. “And I do believe what we had in the fall and the spring of this past year is just the beginning. Greater things are coming, and I feel for the end of this year and leading into 2025, something greater is coming. God is doing something across this nation… I do believe this move of God on college campuses is ushering in a greater awakening.”

‘Jesus Met Us There’: Massive Revival Moment as 10,000 Seek Jesus at University of Arkansas
Video footage of the event shows students joyfully jumping up and down, singing, and praying. One young woman declares she wants “new life” in the moments before she is baptized.
Unite US recently went to the University of South Carolina and saw 4,000 students gather to worship Jesus. Many were baptized during that event, also.
Similarly, more than 1,000 people showed up to another revival event at the Corpus Christi campus of Texas A&M University in late August, where dozens of students were baptized.
To God be the glory!

Brazil Seeing Gospel Spread in Rainforest, Baptizing Thousands This Year
Written by Sylvia St. Cyr Thursday, Sep 12 2024

The 6 million square miles of Amazon jungle in northwest Brazil have been experiencing revival and baptisms like never before.
Roughly 30 million Amazonians living in Brazil have been hearing the gospel in a new way this year. Previously predominantly a Catholic area, evangelical Christianity is spreading.
One of those recipients of the gospel is Ramos, an 83-year-old man who lives on a bamboo boat on the Amazon River.
“God is everything for me. God is my father and without Jesus I’m nothing,” said Ramos in an interview with CBN.
About 60 per cent of the Amazon rainforest is in Brazil, winding with many rivers and tributaries. Missionaries like Pastor Josué Bengtson who spent decades spreading the good news through the river’s intricate network. Now he’s the pastor of Belem Foursquare Church.
“Back when we started evangelizing in this region, we had just a few workers and, in some municipalities, pastors had to walk 10 to 15 km to open a congregation,” says Bengtson. “Today, almost all medium-sized churches in the Amazon have a small boat.”
There are over 3,000 Foursquare churches across the region, ministering to the Brazilian people including in remote locations.
“In the first six months of this year we baptized 14,500 people. Our goal for this year is to baptize over 30,000 people.”
Another missionary that has worked in Brazil for over 32 years is Esequiel Santo, who felt the pull to share the gospel when he was just 15 years old.
“One of the biggest challenges was the isolation and getting used to living among the indigenous or riverside communities,” Santo said. “But God was with us in the work, we saw lives being transformed, so many people heard the gospel and now we are seeing the fruits.”
Some trips he took to reach some of the most remote communities would take 35 days of travel alone, including on a plane, canoe, and by foot.
“The Catholic Church has a lot of difficulty in training new priests, so it is very common to see Catholic Churches in the Amazon but not enough priests to lead congregations,” says José Eustaquio Alves, a leading Brazilian sociologist. “A priest goes once a month or once every semester to the Amazon and is often far from the community. Evangelicals, on the other hand, quickly train pastors who integrate into the community and for a long time.”
With so many being baptized and reached with the word of God, Alves believes revival is taking place in the jungle.
“For many years, people looked at the Amazon and only saw rivers and trees. Today, people are beginning to remember that there are people living there who need to be taken care of, need to hear the gospel and whose lives need a transformation. The church is making this revolution happen.”

Iran’s Jesus Revolution: Mosques Close as 1 Million Muslims Accept Christ
Gary Lane 08-13-2024
Amid talk ofa broader war in the Middle East, there is also news that a Jesus Revolution may be underway.
An unprecedented number of Muslims are choosing to follow Christ, especially in Iran as people search for a better life.
Iranians are growing tired of the ayatollahs and a nation led by the empty promises of their Islamic theocracy. An anonymous internal poll found that 80% now prefer a democratic government, and many are leaving Islam.
“You have a country with one of the highest drug addiction rates in the world. You have a country where corruption runs rampant. You have a country where more than half the people live below the poverty line,” explained Todd Nettleton of The Voice of the Martyrs (VOM).
“And the people of Iran are looking at this and they are saying, ‘Wait a minute. If this is what Islam has brought us in the last 45 years, we’re not interested. We want to know what the other options are.’”
According to Nettleton, Vice President of Messaging at VOM, many are choosing is Jesus withat least a million Muslims reportedly leaving Islam for Christianity.
So, how is the regime reacting to this with a reported 50,000 of the country’s 75,000 mosques now closed?
“This is not something that is making the regime happy. And, really, in many ways, they are seeking to solidify their power and to crush any kind of dissent,” Nettleton said. “We have heard multiple stories this year of Bible study, a home church being raided. Everyone there is photographed, everyone there is questioned. But then the leader of the meeting is held on to. They are arrested. They are detained, they’re put in prison.”
Moreover, Nettleton contends family members and friends are more tolerant than the government about leaving Islam.
“They kind of have the attitude of, ‘Hey, if you found something that works for you, if it’s Jesus or if it’s atheism or if it’s whatever, if it works for you… I know Islam doesn’t work, so I’m happy you found something that works,’” he explained.
“I think what’s happening there is actually representative of what’s happening in the Islamic world,” said Don Shenk, executive director of The Tide Ministry.
He explains how Muslims are experiencing dreams and visions, leading many to find purpose and a different understanding of God.
“We get responses from listeners who say, you know, now I understand that God loves me. I always thought that God wanted to punish me,” Shenk explained. “And I think there’s an awakening that is taking place across the Muslim world, not just in Iran.”
Shenk says Tide Ministry radio broadcasts are even receiving positive responses in Afghanistan where the Taliban pose great danger for those seeking information from secret Christians within the country.
“There’s a lot of suspicion, okay. If I’m going to meet with these people and share that I’m now a believer, ‘Are they really true believers or are they, just trying to identify me?’” he said.
“It’s more than simply being ostracized or disowned by your family. It is actually the threat of death. So, accepting new life in Christ means accepting the possibility of your life ending in this world.”
Christianity is also spreading in Yemen, where the Joshua Project reports Christian growth is almost double the global average.
Next door, Nettleton sees the Saudi Arabian monarchy becoming a bit more tolerant of Christians and their churches.
“Not necessarily welcoming with open arms, obviously. But just the understanding that it could happen, that there could be Christians here,” he explained. “And maybe that’s not the worst thing in the world. That’s such a change from what we would have seen 10 or 15 or 20 years ago.”
It’s a move of God’s Spirit bringing change that may eventually transform not only Iran but the entire Middle East.

Acts 2:17-18,21
¹⁷ And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, That I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, Your young men shall see visions, Your old men shall dream dreams. ¹⁸ And on My menservants and on My maidservants I will pour out My Spirit in those days; And they shall prophesy.²¹ And it shall come to pass that whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.’
Amid the signs of revival sweeping Europe in recent weeks, a Christian rally has drawn thousands of worshippers to London’s Trafalgar Square. CBN News reports they were “moved by the Spirit of God with many people giving their lives to Jesus Christ, experiencing healing and seeing deliverance.”
The event which took place last month was led by evangelist Daniel Chand, pastor of Pragma Church north of London and the founder of Walking Like Jesus Ministries (WLJM), who stood in the Square boldly “proclaiming, pleading and preaching the blood of Jesus over the nation.”
WLJM claims thousands of passers-by also heard the Gospel, bringing back memories of Billy Graham preaching to a standing-room-only crowd of 12,000 crammed into the famous Square 70 years ago. Reverend Graham’s two-month-long 1954 UK crusade is claimed to have reached two million people.
Pastor Chand declared: “We witnessed not only history, but prophecy (being fulfilled). Thousands in Trafalgar Square heard the Gospel 70 years after Billy Graham stood in the same spot. Myself, along with other evangelists and pastors shared testimonies, prayed for the sick, and of course declared the greatest love story — The Gospel.”
According to WLJM there were several testimonies of healing from back pain, arthritis, nerve pain, and macro degenerative disease. One woman pushed through the crowd onto the stage to testify about her miraculous healing. “I’ve had a lump disappear,” she rejoiced as the crowd cheered and shouted for joy.
The ministry confidently predicted: “God is not finished with the United Kingdom. We saw the Lord move powerfully in our nation’s capital! God is hearing from heaven and healing our land. He’s shaking everything that needs to be shaken and he’s pouring out his Spirit!
CBN News reports the London rally was followed by even bigger turnouts at revival events in the Netherlands (63,000), France (30,000) and Hungary (15,000).
Swiss-based evangelist Jean-Luc Trachsel who led the March for Jesus rally in Paris and the This Is The Day outreach in Hungary, pronounced that: “Despite reports that Christianity is dying in Europe, a massive move of the Holy Spirit is taking place. Revival has truly started in Europe in many places with hungry and thirsty people ready to arise boldly to preach again clearly Jesus. It’s small, but it’s already historic and glorious.”
“Now in Europe, in the midst of darkness, war, oppositions, and even persecution, the Glory of God is arising with a massive move of The Holy Spirit to many places for the greatest revival and harvest in history,” he wrote on social media.

‘Fire of Revival’ Spreads in Europe as Thousands Pack Stadiums in Hungary and Italy
Another wave of massive revival gatherings took place across Europe this weekend, and more than a thousand people made decisions to follow Jesus Christ – this time in Hungary and Italy.
International evangelist Jean-Luc Trachsel says “the power of the Lord” moved at two huge conferences in Hungary and Italy as people were saved, healed, and delivered.
“Fire of revival is spreading everywhere in Europe to hungry and thirsty people,” he wrote on social media. “Stop to watch and dare why it’s not coming to your place. Go to your knees and cry out to The Lord of the harvest to save your region.”

Global Christianity surges beyond projections in 2024
LiCAS.news • Mar 15, 2024
The Center for the Study of Global Christianity at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary recently reported that global Christianity is experiencing remarkable growth, defying expectations and surpassing population rates.
Contrary to the anticipated slowdown, the Christian population is projected to climb from over 2.52 billion to 2.63 billion, representing a 1.08 percent growth, and is expected to surpass 3 billion by 2050.
Within Christianity, certain denominations are witnessing even more rapid expansion. Notably, Protestants (1.63 percent), independents (1.96 percent), evangelicals (1.66 percent), and Pentecostal/charismatics (1.48 percent) are identified as the fastest-growing groups, showcasing the diverse nature of the faith’s evolution.
The growth of Christianity is particularly pronounced in the global south, with Africa and Asia emerging as the fastest-growing regions.
Africa, in particular, has undergone a remarkable transformation, evolving from having less than 10 million Christians at the turn of the 20th century to now being home to 734 million Christians, growing at a rate of 2.64 percent.
By 2050, Africa is projected to host more Christians than Asia and Latin America combined.
Intriguingly, the report indicates that Christianity is not only growing in numbers but is also expanding geographically.
In 1900, 95 percent of the world’s Christians lived in predominantly Christian countries. However, the trend is shifting, with a decline of 0.17 percent between 2020 and 2024, indicating that more Christians are residing in diverse, non-Christian majority nations.
Simultaneously, atheism, which once saw a peak around 1970 with 165 million adherents, is on the decline. The current growth trend for atheism is -0.12 percent, with their number falling from 147 million in 2020 to 146 million in 2024.
In contrast, agnostics are experiencing minimal growth with a 0.09 percent increase, and overall, non-religionists, atheists, and agnostics combined are projected to fall to less than 849 million by 2050.
A significant aspect of this growth is reflected in the establishment of churches and the sending out of missionaries. Over the past century, the number of churches has increased tenfold, reaching an estimated 4.2 million in 2024.
The international missionary force has grown from 62,000 in 1900 to a projected 445,000 in 2024, with expectations of reaching 600,000 by 2050.
The report brings attention to the improved accessibility of the Gospel. In 1900, over half of the world (54.3 percent) lacked access to the Gospel, but this figure has steadily decreased to 27.8 percent in 2024.
The number of languages with New Testament translations is also set to rise from 2,400 in 2024 to an impressive 4,200 by 2050.
