Key charismatic leaders Pastors Carter Conlon, Robert Morris and Samuel Rodriguez as well as James Robison made a dynamic impact at the reboot of national Christian men’s organization Promise Keepers this past weekend at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, with nearly 30,000 men in attendance and even more participating online.
Geared to include “worship that strengthens the soul, brotherhood that lasts a lifetime, and tools that empower you to be the man Christ intended you to be,” the two-day event included worship led by Cody Carnes and Tauren Wells.
Twitter filled up with comments from attendees as well as from faith leaders about the event. Robison, longtime television host and founder of Life Outreach International, posted about “Kingdom power, life and purpose”:
I shared at Promise Keepers in AT&T Stadium on Saturday that although the disciples did not understand the Kingdom here and now, at hand and in us, they left the Upper Room filled to overflowing with Kingdom power, life and purpose! pic.twitter.com/f3qEYmvd9W

Rodriguez, president of the National Hispanic Leadership Conference and pastor of New Season Church in Sacramento, California, also shared his excitement over the way “God’s precious Holy Spirit filled the stadium”:
Glory to God!!!
I had the God ordained blessing and privilege of preaching today at AT&T Stadium in the great state of Texas for Promise Keepers. Forever grateful as God’s precious Holy Spirit filled the stadium.

Despite efforts from the left to cancel the event because of CEO Ken Harrison’s biblical views on sexuality, the movement appears on the upswing after this successful event.
