The Ministry
Reviving The World is an evangelistic ministry that holds mass gatherings all around the world called Gospel Campaigns. Our mission is to bring Jesus to the lost and dying and to see entire cities revived and shaken by the power of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. As a result of the campaigns, thousands of lives are transformed as people are saved, healed, and delivered.
There is an urgency being imprinted on our hearts by the Holy Spirit- NOW is the time to put our hands to the plow and spread the Gospel like wildfire throughout the nations to every people, tribe, and tongue and see multitudes in the nation come to the foot of the cross.
From the beginning
WHO WE ARE
Evangelist & Founder
Evg. David Rotärmel was born in Schwenningen in the Black Forest of Germany and grew up in the nearby village of Lackendorf, close to Rottweil. Though surrounded by the normal rhythm of childhood and teenage life, his heart was filled with deep emptiness and unrest.
As a young teenager, David cried out to Jesus one night from his bed: “JESUS, if You really exist, I ask that You take away the emptiness and give me peace! I cannot bear it anymore! I don’t want money, fame, or a great career. I need freedom from the deep darkness in my heart!” Jesus answered that desperate cry, and from that moment, David’s life was forever changed. Through a local church, he encountered the transforming power of Jesus Christ and discovered true freedom and peace.
“I am a debtor… as much as is in me, I am ready to preach the gospel.”
— Romans 1:14–15
About a year after giving his life to Jesus, David received a clear calling from God to reach the lost. During a youth trip to Spain, while praying by a cliffside, he heard the voice of God calling him to preach the Gospel and rescue souls.
Back in Germany, David began ministering on the streets of Rottweil and preaching outside nightclubs on weekends. A powerful youth movement began to rise in the Black Forest as young people encountered Jesus through street outreaches, weekly gatherings, and evangelistic events called “Freedom in Town.” Many surrendered their lives to Christ, and David’s passion to see the lost saved is what continues to drive his ministry today.
Driven by a growing hunger to see mass salvations, Evg. David Rotärmel joined Christ for all Nations in Orlando, Florida in 2018, where he began learning the foundations of large-scale Gospel Campaigns. In 2020, he entered CfaN’s intensive Bootcamp — a training program for evangelists — where he was personally trained and ordained by Evg. Daniel Kolenda, successor to Evg. Reinhard Bonnke.
Shortly after graduating Bootcamp, David was selected to direct five simultaneous Gospel Campaigns across Tanzania in the cities of Arusha, Singida, Shinyanga, Kahama, and Tabora. Hundreds of thousands gathered, and more than 50,000 people surrendered their lives to Jesus as the fire of revival swept through the nation.
In 2021, David began helping train evangelists through the CfaN Bootcamp. Together with CfaN, he helped equip ten evangelists in a strong Muslim region of Tanzania — training them to organize and preach at Gospel Campaigns marked by salvation, miracles, and the power of the Holy Spirit. Since then, David has continued conducting mass evangelistic campaigns across Africa, seeing cities awakened and multitudes transformed by the Gospel.
After witnessing the power of the Gospel shake Africa, God placed a burden on David’s heart to see the same move of salvation in Germany and across Europe. Since 2022, that fire has spread from the Black Forest into cities and regions across the nation through the “Nights of Hope” and “Hope Tour” campaigns, as well as various initiatives.
What began in David’s hometown region has grown into a movement involving more than 200 churches across Germany. The 2025 Salvation Bayern campaign became a landmark moment — gathering 14,248 attendees, leading 676 people to Jesus, and witnessing supernatural healings night after night. More than 1,000 believers marched through the streets of Munich, boldly proclaiming the name of Jesus.
Today, the same Gospel Campaign model that brought revival fire in Africa is working powerfully in Europe. Evangelists are being raised up and sent out across Germany and the nations — carrying the Gospel with boldness and seeing lives transformed by the power of Jesus Christ.
“Imagine evangelists who truly begin to run with a sharpness that brings our nation into a salvation revival.”
