Now a major motion picture *** The Jesus Movement transformed the
church--and it can transform you God has always been passionate
about turning unlikely people into His most fervent followers.
Prostitutes and pagans, tax collectors and tricksters, the pompous
and the pious--the more unlikely, the more it seemed to please God
to demonstrate His power, might, and mercy through them. America in
the 1960s and 1970s was full of many such characters--young men and
women who had rejected the conformist religion of their parents'
generation, didn't follow conventional rules, and didn't fit in.
Their longing for something more set the stage for the greatest
spiritual awakening of the twentieth century. Discover the
remarkable true story of the Jesus Movement, an extraordinary time
of mass revival, renewal, and reconciliation. Setting intriguing
personal stories within the context of one of the most tumultuous
times in modern history, Greg Laurie and Ellen Vaughn draw
important parallels with our own time of spiritual apathy and overt
hostility, offering a new vision for the next generation of
unlikely believers--and hope for the next great American revival.
Because God can always bring a new Jesus Revolution.
