Revive This Nation at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary is an historic program aimed at serving Southern Baptists as a catalyst for revival. For more than fifty years, students and professors have spent Spring Break preaching revivals and ministering in churches across this nation. God has blessed this effort with more than 14,000 people coming to know Christ. From street corners and front doors to pulpits and pews, we continue to have one aim: preaching the Word and reaching the world. Preachers consistently tell us that this program has opened their eyes to the need for workers in the fields and churches report how a movement of God has awakened them to the greatness of God and the urgency of His call.

Partnerships with churches makes this ministry successful. Churches host revival meetings where our preachers proclaim the Word of God from the pulpit and on the streets. We are eager to go, but we need partner churches to provide opportunities for our students and professors.
