Revival starts here. Let’s reimagine it together.
In this powerful episode of the Rine Podcast, host Dan sits down with retired videographer and lifelong believer Doug to explore the heartbeat of revival in New England. Together, they reflect on personal stories, church experiences, and the daily walk of faith that goes far beyond Sunday mornings.
Doug shares his journey from growing up in a God-centered home in Pennsylvania, serving in the Army in Germany, and eventually settling in Massachusetts—where his life was transformed through encounters with the Holy Spirit. Drawing from decades of experience in both Baptist and Vineyard communities, he offers unique insight into the challenges and opportunities facing churches today.
The conversation tackles pressing questions:
- Is New England ready for revival, and what does that look like?
- How can churches move beyond tradition to embrace the power of the Holy Spirit?
- Why is personal time with God—“hanging out” with Him daily—so essential to true spiritual growth?
Woven throughout are stories that highlight the practical side of living out faith in everyday places—from praying with waitresses to building long-term friendships with people experiencing homelessness. These moments illustrate the foundation of Christian life: love in action.
Listeners will also hear reflections on what it means to be a “royal priesthood,” the importance of praying for church leaders across all denominations, and the need for believers to rediscover their first love in Christ. Doug challenges us to open ourselves to the uncomfortable work of the Holy Spirit and to recognize the untapped potential God has placed within His people.
This episode is not just about revival as an event but about renewal as a way of life—rooted in Jesus, empowered by the Spirit, and expressed through love for our neighbors. Whether you’re a longtime Christian, new in faith, or curious about what God is doing in New England, you’ll find encouragement, challenge, and hope in this heartfelt conversation.
