The 2025 First Quarter Report From David Bryant, Founder of ChristNow.com

(Isaiah 60:1-3, NASB, emphasis added).

Dear friends and donors:

THANK YOU for your prayers and support! They have made all the difference this past quarter as we press forward in our mission to foster an American CHRIST Awakening.

Recently, we’ve begun to define this Christward movement as the NEW American Revolution. Why is that?

As you know, on Easter weekend, we celebrated the 250^th year of the beginning of the first American Revolution in 1775 with the “shot heard ‘round the world” at Lexington and Concord. Look at what was brought forth in 2025 from that small beginning of one proactive movement commenced by common, everyday citizens: the greatest nation, on many levels, the world has ever seen!

But now, two-and-a-half centuries later, our nation stands in desperate need of a new, far more consequential uprising. It needs a “revolution of revelation.”

In other words, in this hour nothing short of a nationwide revelation of the saving glory of the Lord Jesus Christ—manifested in and through churches across our land—can put America back on the road to REAL freedom. I’m talking about “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness,” as Thomas Jefferson wrote but which we ultimately experience under the liberating, redeeming reign of God’s Son.

As this spiritual revolution happens, an American CHRIST Awakening would result in what could only be called a NEW American Revolution.

Healing: In early February, I underwent major surgery to remove a benign tumor from my right lung. I recovered so rapidly—miraculously—that I was back at the ministry within four days!

Speaking: Two days before surgery, I brought the main message to an East Coast gathering of Christian leaders focused on raising up Christ Awakenings in our cities. Now, I’m working with the founder of this “City Transformation Movement” to provide counsel and resources for major developments in the next few months.

Campaign: Our 2025 Nationwide Campaign for an American Christ Awakening has been fully launched. Our team’s goal for phase one has been achieved beyond all expectations. I hold in my hands a 12-page document with charts and figures that reports a host of digital outreach analytics for the first few weeks—a hint of things to come.

Get this: In just one month of placing paid ads on Facebook pages across the nation, we reached a number equivalent to the total population of Washington, DC, or the country of Lebanon!

Therefore, we have tens of thousands of new subscribers! These results vindicate our central thesis: There are countless Christians across our land who are hungry for MORE of Christ—for whom our team has prepared hundreds of free resources to feed them and then forge them into proactive “revival teams” we call CASTs.

CASTs: Now, in April, we’ve moved to phase two, in which we are seeking to recruit from our subscribers a core of volunteers to facilitate “Christ Awakening Servant Teams” (CASTs) within their churches.

To that end, I’ve just completed an 18-page Official CAST Vision and How-to Handbook to equip them. We’re scheduling three CAST Webinars mid-May to train facilitators. Placing CASTs in churches across America is the KEY to igniting Christ Awakening movements among God’s people—igniting a NEW American Revolution. Such a sovereign work of the Holy Spirit will exalt Jesus in whole new ways that can allow the gospel to become the true SOUL of America. The implications of this for WORLD evangelization are incalculable.

Book: Personally, I am excited to report that my latest book, When God Climbed Down: Exploring the Mysteries of Jesus’ Radical, Lifesaving Incarnation, will be published next week. Its eight chapters (67 pages) take the reader far beyond the celebrations of Advent into the amazing dimensions of the reigning Son of Man today. The book represents one more layer in the vast variety of resources Christ Now offers to feed, equip, and mobilize many eager followers. You will be able to download a free eBook soon.

Daily: Of course, on top of all that are the daily social media postings, the correspondence, blogs and vlogs, and the Breakthrough Zoom prayer events our team facilitates.

In addition, seven groups of national and international Christian leaders meet to pray via Zoom every month for an American CHRIST Awakening—using my book, Christ Is NOW!, as the guide for their focus in prayer.

Oh, yes! On top of all this, we “migrated” our entire website (one of the most complex on the web today) from Amazon servers to Digital Ocean servers. This took many days. But now we have much better service and can serve our followers so much better.

Many thanks to all of you who support this ministry financially. Our entire outreach is FREE to others but not for us, of course. To donate for the glory of God, simply click HERE.

(All gifts are tax-deductible.)

Finally, please PRAY for us. PRAY for our significant financial needs right now. PRAY for the expansion of our outreach. PRAY that CASTs would be planted in many congregations in the coming weeks. PRAY for the NEW American Revolution—as the whole church becomes more wholly alive to the whole vision of the whole Christ—and to the whole extent of his saving purposes for this generation. THANK YOU!!
