Residing in Melbourne, Australia, one of the most locked down cities in the world due to the pandemic, Planetshakers have not been able to meet as a church, and at some points, could not even travel more than a few miles from their homes or leave their house for more than an hour without special government permission. Nevertheless, during these unprecedented restrictions on life as they knew it, the church collectively felt God birth revival in their spirit, and what happened next was deemed nothing short of a miracle.

Stepping out in faith when government authorities opened up a window for limited gatherings, Pastor Russell Evans “pressed record” on what he saw God doing in the life of Planetshakers at its Bible College. While not the big production held in a massive arena that is generally expected from Planetshakers, the resulting Revival: Live At Chapel album was just as alive and celebratory, perhaps even more so due to the palpable joy of the students expressing worship together for the first time in months.

“These are songs for the church recorded with very little production, but with hearts that are hungry for the presence of God along with a few organic instruments,” shares Joth Hunt, who is featured on the recording along with Sam Evans, Andy Harrison, Josh Ham, Aimee Evans, Natalie Ruiz and Rudy Nikkerud.

Pastor Sam Evans adds, “The songs, born out of a time where things looked so bleak, declare a different story, a God-story of faith, hope and trust in the unfailing Word of God, which is good and true in every season of life.”

“If you can declare the goodness of God in the valley when things are looking bad, you can declare the goodness of God anywhere. That’s faith. That’s a relationship with Christ,” says Planetshakers’ Joshua Brown.

Along with the audio produced and mixed by Hunt, all the new songs were captured on video live during the gathering and release simultaneously with the album today. The full Revival: Live At Chapel track listing follows:

01. I Know You Can 

02. Way Truth Life

03. All My Life

04. I Stand In Awe

05. Back To Life

06. Above The Storm

07. 247 365 (Praise Break)

08. Free Indeed

09. I Gotta Praise

10. Running

11. In Your Presence

Full-production versions of these same songs plus the track “Revival’s Here” are also available on Planetshakers’ REVIVAL. This album was recorded live during the REVIVAL Conference held April 1-3 at Planetshakers Church in Melbourne during the brief break in the pandemic lockdowns. Capturing the pent-up, heartfelt roar of praise and worship that erupted during the conference, this is perhaps the most raw live recording ever released from Planetshakers. The album not only introduces some new worship leaders, but also features the core Planetshakers worship team.

There is also a special Planetshakers Revival 7 Days Devotional available now on YouVersion at https://www.bible.com/reading-plans/27632-revival.

Although Melbourne is again locked down with one of the harshest restrictions in the world, Planetshakers continues its mission to “empower generations to win generations.” The ministry is seeing huge streaming numbers online with hundreds of thousands of people from all across the globe connecting to its worship services and resources remotely.

About Planetshakers:

Passionate, vibrant, relevant and powerful are all words that aptly describe the ministry and church of Planetshakers, founded by Russell and Sam Evans.

After a radical encounter with God, Russell established a conference called Planetshakers in 1997. The conference quickly became renowned for its passionate praise and worship, its ability to stir hunger in young people for encounters with God, and the frequent outbreaks of miracles, signs and wonders.

With a deep desire to see more people encounter Jesus and His tangible Presence, Russell and Sam founded Planetshakers Church in Melbourne, Australia, in 2004. In addition to the church, Planetshakers Ministries International has a significant global footprint— expressing the Planetshakers mandate, worldwide, through music and touring, international conferences and events, Planetshakers Bible College and working with governments around the world to bring systemic change.

Planetshakers is a church and ministry for all; everyone is welcome; in its Melbourne campus over 150 nations are represented with the primary desire being that people find the healing, breakthrough and provision they need as they encounter the tangible Presence of Jesus and His family, in a personal and life-changing way.
