In this special bonus episode of Path to Purpose, Pastor David Lindell sits down with Russell B. Johnson, lead pastor of Pursuit Northwest in Seattle, Washington, for a powerful and passionate conversation on revival, calling, and discovering your God-given purpose.

From his beginnings in politics to his unexpected call into ministry, Russell shares how God used seasons of obscurity, failure, and surrender to shape his purpose and prepare him for the move of God now happening at Pursuit. Together, they unpack what it means to live with holy desperation, to stay “delicate before the Lord,” and to lead a generation that refuses to settle for religion without power.

This conversation is a reminder that revival is not a brand or a moment—it’s a way of life that gives your purpose eternal meaning. Whether you’re in a season of waiting, wondering what’s next, or longing for God to move again, this episode will stir your faith to believe that God can ignite revival in your heart, renew your purpose, and write a new story through your life and your generation.
