Pastor Mike McBride on Freedom Summer Revivals, Black Church Power, and Justice

Pastor Mike McBride discusses the meaning and mission of the Freedom Summer Revivals: a movement designed to awaken faith, strengthen Black churches, and organize moral courage for the struggle for voting rights, justice, and liberation. The conversation centers on why these revivals are needed now, how they connect to the history of the Black freedom struggle, and what they hope to accomplish in this season of crisis.

Pastor Mike explains that the revivals are meant to revive the prophetic fire of the Black church, deepen multiracial solidarity, and turn spiritual renewal into public witness and action. Jim and Pastor Mike also discuss the “packed and cracked” assault on Black political representation, the dangers of Christian nationalism, and how showing up, standing up, and fighting behind enemy lines can help build a freer future.
