This Pastor Admitted He Was the Problem. Then 1,600 Were Baptized.

Pastor Robby Gallaty of Long Hollow Church shares the story behind the moment he admitted, “I was the problem.”
When Robby became senior pastor, the church was declining, criticism was mounting, and he wondered if he could keep pastoring. But before revival broke out at Long Hollow — including more than 1,600 baptisms — God first confronted Robby himself.
In this conversation, we talk about burnout, repentance, silence and solitude, hearing from God, spontaneous baptism, the Holy Spirit, and why renewal often begins with the prayer: “Lord, start with me."
