The American Campfire Revival with Kirk Cameron Kirk Cameron

The United States has lost sight of the principles it was founded upon, and our country needs a revival if we hope to regain our strength and individuality. A true revival is made possible only with the support of those who carry the spirit of life into their friendships, schools, workplaces, and ultimately to Congress. In this plan for revival are five steps, which Kirk will be outlining in this and subsequent episodes. In today's episode, we discuss genuine faith, spiritual growth, and the pursuit of wisdom, each of which are important on a personal and national level to achieve renewal and revival. Faith in the Lord was once a building block for a free and just American society, but now we have watched our nation put its trust in things that will only lead to destruction and decay. In order to rebuild a flourishing, blessed, and safe nation, we must put our faith in a source that will not be shaken, and ask Him to lead the way.

How did morality in the United States get turned into perversion and wickedness? As our country began to place more and more of its faith in the elite, in the media, and in secular education, we forgot what the true source of morality is. We must not worship the gods of secular culture, because faith in these things has produced a new kind of "morality" that has overtaken Jesus's message of redemption and restoration. True morality begins with faith in God and obedience to His Word, as God revives our spirits and teaches us to do justly and love what He loves. Without biblical law and teaching, the United States will no longer resemble the beacon that it once was, and the citizens of this country will put their faith in things that lead to destruction. Just as the human heart is sinful without God, our government cannot do good apart from the root of true morality. If we hope to take back our morality, education, and laws, the American people must get back to biblical truth—the only thing that produces true liberty and freedom.

The basis of depravity is the sinful human heart, but there is a remedy for moral wickedness. If your faith has not been placed in the God of the universe, you are a slave to the corruption of your heart. Faith is not just a feeling, but is a tangible and necessary tool if you want to live a life of meaning, which starts with placing dependence on God. When your faith is placed in the One who created you, He changes your heart to love what He loves, which becomes the basis for the laws of a nation. The founding fathers of America understood that faith is a strong foundation to build a country upon, and that we cannot have liberty, justice, and character without the guidance of faith. We as a nation have to turn away from the selfishness, anger, and hostility that is separating us from our Father, as He is the only one who can bring true revival. May we ask God to reawaken our hearts to see and love Him, and in turn, may we have a greater sense of duty and a greater love for our neighbor.

On today's episode we welcome guest Adam Kovar, a former marine, friend of Kirk, and the founder of MYFIRESIDE pits. The two men became fast friends after Kirk stumbled upon Adam’s portable fire pit business, and they began to see similarities in their faith journeys and their hope for an American revival. Adam embodies the optimism, loyalty, and patriotism that the American Campfire Revival hopes to inspire across the country, and he believes in the importance of sharing conversation and debate around a campfire. If we don’t talk about the state of our country, then nothing will change or improve, and Adam and Kirk discuss the importance of inspiring campfires across the United States. In order to make freedom a blessing, we also need faith and character, as freedom on its own allows space for evil to infiltrate. If you are interested in joining the revival mission of Kirk and Adam, check out the resources below and start your very own campfire!

Our hearts need to be continually and intentionally fixed on God, because He is the only one who can truly purify and restore. Our God sees the state of humanity's broken, sinful hearts, but He does not ask us to fix ourselves before coming to Him. King David understood the importance of having a purified heart, because it is only then that we will be able to see God the most fully. In 1 Chronicles 29:18, in a prayer David asks God to "...keep these desires and thoughts in the hearts of your people forever, and keep their hearts loyal to you" (NIV). This prayer is one that Christ followers should more often repeat, as the tendency of our hearts is not to lean towards righteousness. Only when the hearts of our nation are pure is when our civil government will be pleasing in the eyes of God and a blessing to us as citizens. Thankfully, all God asks of us is the humility to lay down our sin before Him and ask for a purified heart, and He will take care of the rest.

When we think of inspiring women in the Bible, we often think of Eve and Mary, but we can also find inspiration in a lesser known story of a woman named Jael. Jael was a fearless woman whose courage and prompt action resulted in a big victory for Israel against the Canaanites. Even though Jael didn't have to confront evil, she took it upon herself to face that evil and destroy it. Jael's story should be an example for those in the family of faith who see evil all around them and choose to put their heads down. When we respond to our God-given call of duty and walk in obedience with the Lord, then we will be blessed, just as the Israelites were blessed in victory. Our call as Christ followers is not to run and hide from evil in this world, but to engage in a spiritual battle through prayer, faithfulness, and obedience.
