This prayer song poetically explores the fundamental question," Why?" "Why are there so many who still don't know Jesus?" Rather than attempting to answer this question, the song invites the Church to take action.Therefore, taking themes from the Prophet Habakuk's prayer for renewal/revival (Habakkuk 3:2), this prayer song laments the current global situation, implores God to revive His Church and invites the Church to take action. Bringing together gifted musicians from around the world, this song is edgy, passionate, groovy and full of motion from beginning to end.

The mission of the present-day Church is to be the ambassadors of God's good news of salvation through Christ to a world that is often suffocating in spiritual death. In this second book in the Re:New book series, Pastor Jervis presents a case for missional renewal by arguing for mobilizing the whole Church (clergy and nonclergy) for its mission. But for the mobilized Church to be effective at its call to be witnesses to Christ, he also argues that foundationally and biblically, the Holy Spirit is, and should continue to be, the ultimate power that guides and empowers all our Christian ministry. In doing so, he uses the lives of key biblical figures —Jesus, Peter, Paul, Philip the Evangelists and Stephen the martyr—as paradigm missionaries that the 21 century Church needs to emulate. 

For almost the entire period of its existence, the Church has fought to stay spiritually alive. Now, we face a faith crisis of global proportions - particularly for our youth who are meant to lead us in the future. Re:New – A Case for Spiritual Renewal in the 21st Century explores the critical need for examination and spiritual renewal at all levels. This renewal will repair the leakages in our wells, filling us afresh with the life of Christ and of His Spirit, which will then overflow to transform the world. This is the Renew Movement!
