'Revive Us 2': Kirk Cameron, Ravi Zacharias, Ben Carson Lead Nationwide Night of Prayer & Worship
WASHINGTON – Actor and producer Kirk Cameron is once again shining a light on faith with a national night of prayer and worship.
"Revive Us 2" aired LIVE at more than 800 movie theaters across the country Tuesday night.
"One year ago at 'Revive Us,' over 150,000 believers gathered in theaters across America for a national family meeting," Cameron said in a promotional video. "We prayed. We worshiped. We put our faith into action and something remarkable happened."
This year, the event was broadcast from the new Museum of the Bible in the nation's capitol.
"We hear it all the time. We're being divided about race, about religion, about politics, about gender, about choice," Cameron told CBN's Jenna Browder. "We have so many things causing anxiety like hurricanes and wildfires and tragedies in Las Vegas. We need a path to unity."
In their interview, Cameron described the event as a "giant revival."
"They used to have revival meetings in a big white tent somewhere and the community would come," Cameron explained. "Well think of this as 800 tents but they're movie theaters all connected through satellite."

Just like last year, Cameron teamed up with big names like Ben Carson, Ravi Zacharias, and the filmmakers behind "Fireproof" and "War Room."
Cameron said the whole idea for this came to him in the form of an open door.
"In my walk with God, I've found that whenever I seek to honor God and be a blessing to other people, if that intersects with my acting career or my ability to make a live event or a movie like 'Revive Us,' I want to be all in and I do it with all my heart," he said.
And it's that passion he hopes will spread to audience across the country.
A re-broadcast of the live event will play on Wednesday, November 1 at 7 p.m. local time.
