(Worthy News) – The University of Alabama has joined a growing number of American colleges which have reported Christian revival breaking out among their student body, CBN News reports. Hundreds of students were reported to have been baptized following an evangelistic event attended by thousands at the university last week.
Christian author and speaker Jennie Allen led the event in Alabama, and helped to baptize those who responded to the call to entrust their lives to Jesus. Her website explains that Allen is “a passionate leader following God’s call on her life to catalyze a generation to live what they believe.”
Allen is the author of Untangle Your Emotions, Find Your People and Get Out of Your Head. She has a Master’s degree in Biblical Studies from Dallas Theological Seminary.
“Last night at the University of Alabama thousands of students gathered. Hundreds responded to the gospel and hundreds were baptized,” Allen said in an Instagram post.
“Over and over again as I baptized people and asked them why they were doing this tonight? The answers were: My friends have been praying for me. My friend invited me. My friend shared Jesus with me,” Allen shared in a second post after the event.
The levels of baptisms and responses to the Gospel seen at Alabama University and colleges across the United States follow the extraordinary revival meetings at the Asbury Christian college last year, which made headlines around the world.
