Revival Sweeps Through Liberia as Students Turn to Christ
A remarkable revival is unfolding in Liberia, with tens of thousands of young individuals embracing Christianity as a wave of spiritual awakening washes over the nation.
Over the past year, a dedicated team of evangelists trained by the FORGE ministry has been actively spreading the gospel throughout the country. According to reports from CBN News, this initiative has led to 45,000 students making a commitment to follow Jesus through a church-based evangelism and discipleship program.
Initiation of the Movement
The revival efforts began in November 2025, when around 400 individuals gathered across Liberia for intensive training sessions. Among those trained were 28 passionate young men and women, equipped to bring the gospel to schools and colleges nationwide.
These dedicated evangelists have since witnessed thousands of students reaffirm their faith and choose to follow Jesus Christ throughout 2026.
Insights from Evangelist Leadership
Evangelist Charlie Marq, president of FORGE, shared insights during an interview with CBN’s Christian World News program. He noted, “These believers who came to this training in 2025 understand that God chooses and utilizes ordinary people. This realization is pivotal in unlocking lives around the globe.”
Marq emphasized that the FORGE ministry’s approach to revival integrates evangelism with robust follow-up and discipleship, empowering local believers to actively share their faith.
He affirmed the growing spiritual hunger among the youth of Liberia, stating, “Hearts are more open to Jesus than ever before.”
Powerful Personal Testimonies
The testimonies from these newly converted believers have proven to be impactful. One striking example involved a young Muslim girl who was introduced to Christ. Following her conversion, she was baptized the next day and immediately found the courage to share her new faith.
Marq recounted her bold declaration to a group of Muslim men, stating, “I was in sexual sin and addiction, and I left Islam, and I found Jesus today, and it changed everything. You guys need to give your lives to Christ.”
A Broader Movement
The revival is not limited to Liberia. FORGE reports similar successes elsewhere, including a young man in Somalia who was once on the path to becoming a suicide bomber before encountering the gospel.
CBN News has produced a documentary titled “Revival Generation,” which highlights how God is transforming the lives of young individuals across the U.S. You can stream it or order a DVD by following this link.
Marq expressed the profound impact of such encounters, explaining, “When individuals meet the Living God, their lives are irrevocably changed.”
Global Signs of Spiritual Awakening
As we observe these developments in Liberia, signs of revival are also emerging across Europe, highlighting a worldwide spiritual renewal.
