Nick Hall is the founder of the Pulse evangelization movement and host of the “Bible Quarantine” series on Fox Nation. His movement has seen more than 117,000 new confessions of faith in Christ across more than one hundred nations in forty-three languages.
The special Good Friday service responsible for many of the conversions included appearances by Max Lucado, Lauren Daigle, Michael W. Smith, and NFL Hall of Fame coach Tony Dungy. Oklahoma Sen. James Lankford and South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott, actress and evangelist Priscilla Shirer, and recording artist Lecrae shared messages in preparation for Holy Week as well.
Hall told reporters, “This is the greatest evangelistic moment that we’ve ever seen in our lifetime” and believes that many more conversions than those reported to Pulse likely occurred.
