USA: From riots to potential for revival in Ferguson

Written by Super User 28 Dec 2014

Chaplains from the Billy Graham Rapid Response Team are now deployed to bring hope and healing by fanning out and ministering in the city of Ferguson, Missouri USA - following riots that erupted after the recent Grand Jury decision not to indict a local police officer in the Michael Brown shooting case, according to Erik Ogren, writing for the Billy Graham website. ‘We've heard from several pastors, and they view this as raw spiritual warfare. That's what it is and it's very obvious,’ said Jeff Naber, one of the Rapid Response Team. ‘With that said, the potential for revival here is extreme. This is different from a tornado or flood,’ said Billy Graham Rapid Response Team chaplain Strib Boynton as he manoeuvred his truck through the streets of Ferguson. ‘This is changing the hearts of people, of a whole community.’
