3.
Even when personal strength, ideas, energy, or resources run completely dry, God remains completely able to handle every pressure and circumstance.
4.
Scripture distinguishes between sequential time (chronos) and divinely appointed, decisive moments (kairos) in God's sovereign plan.
5.
Data and cultural trends reveal that we are in a kairos revival season, marked by a significant spiritual resurgence led by Gen Z returning to authentic faith.
6.
A genuine move of God is intergenerational, relying on mature believers to declare God's power to younger generations so faith is carried forward (Psalm 145:4-7).
7.
God receives visible glory both in the person of Christ and in a healthy, Spirit-filled, gospel-driven local church that serves as a beacon of hope for its city.
8.
Passion was birthed on the exact day the first Gen Z individual was born, carrying an enduring commitment to resource and lean forward into the spiritual future of the next generation.
