Pastor Michael Koulianos on Revival and What the Church Is Missing Right Now

Pastor Michael Koulianos has been in rooms where the Holy Spirit moved in ways that could not be explained, manufactured, or replicated. He has also been in rooms where everything was tried and nothing happened. This episode is a conversation about the difference — what revival actually is, what produces it, and why the church in the West is so hungry for something she has largely stopped making room for.

In this episode:
• The Holy Spirit is a person not a force — and that distinction changes everything
• You can grieve the Holy Spirit — what that means practically and why most of us do it without realizing
• Pastor Michael's personal story — how an encounter with the Holy Spirit redirected the entire trajectory of his life
• What it looks like when the Holy Spirit actually moves vs. when it is manufactured enthusiasm
• Revival is not an event — it is what happens when the people of God return to their first love
• What the church needs to recover right now and what Pastor Michael believes God is stirring
• How to position yourself and your community to make room for the Holy Spirit
