I watched more than 50,000 people begin a relationship with Christ. Revival isn&#8217;t something I read about anymore. I saw it,&#8221; he posted in Instagram.<\/p>\n<p>While Pokluda is no stranger to revivals \u2013 having participated in the UniteUS awakening happening on college campuses \u2013 the salvations he saw at Frank&#8217;s concerts are leaving an extraordinary mark on his evangelistic career.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In a backstage interview with ChurchLeaders, the pastor also highlighted not only the number of people saved, but the revival&#8217;s consistency.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There&#8217;s some nights we&#8217;re seeing, you know, 5,000 people respond to the invitation to give their life to Jesus, to call upon the name of Jesus to be saved,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve seen thousands,&#8221; Pokluda continued. &#8220;But 5,000 \u2013 and then it&#8217;s night after night after night. It&#8217;s just unbelievable.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The revival wasn&#8217;t limited to those holy moments during the concerts. Pokluda testified that lives all around the tour were also changed.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Everywhere we go, we&#8217;re looking for opportunities to share the gospel and have conversations,&#8221; he told ChurchLeaders. &#8220;So we&#8217;ve just seen life-change all around the tour. Uber drivers and people in the hotel, everywhere you go.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>As Pokluda shares the gospel, he acknowledges Forrest Frank&#8217;s pure heart and anointing as a key piece to such a revival.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t care what you call it, but I&#8217;m going to call it a revival,&#8221; Pokluda declared. &#8220;It&#8217;s just having a front row seat of this powerful movement of what God is doing in our country,&#8221; he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Especially Forrest, he&#8217;s just so pure in heart,&#8221; Pokluda added. &#8220;And I think Forrest is one of the people that he&#8217;s anointed for such a time as this.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tens of thousands of young people accepted Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior during Forrest Frank&#8217;s recent nationwide concerts, according to a pastor who shared the gospel on the tour.\u00a0 Frank&#8217;s 29-city U.S. tour officially wrapped up on August 1\u20132.
