Author, evangelist, pastor
We are seeking to lead God’s people back to the cross in personal revival, where a deeper understanding of who God is and who we are compels holy living, sacrificial service, and bold evangelism.
Vision
Compelled by the Spirit we are looking for preaching and teaching opportunities with churches or Christian organizations who have a heart for spiritual renewal and the next Great Awakening.
Goals
Through preaching and teaching, Revitalize can assist your church or organization in the pursuit of spiritual revitalization.
Service
After preaching as an evangelist for several years, a community of churches invited Scott to develop and preach a cross-denominational revival event. Being on a larger scale, Scott created the Scott Hamby Evangelistic Association in 2015 (later "Revitalize") to house ministry efforts of pulpit supply, weekend renewals, revivals, and crusade-like events.
history
about revitalize
"It is my privilege to recommend Scott Hamby as an evangelist to preach in your church. Scott
served as a vocational evangelist for several years. He also has been a pastor. The Lord is calling him back into full time evangelism. Scott recently became a member of the Fellowship of Missouri Baptist Evangelist. I have heard him preach. He is well studied and preaches with conviction. He has a heart to reach the lost. Scott also has a burden to see the church revived. He loves pastors and will be a great encouragement to those who would have him come and lead in revival services. If you are planning on having a revival service, bible conference, men’s conference, or witness training I recommend you invite Scott Hamby. He will be a blessing to you and your church."
