About this listen

God has always been interested in turning unlikely people into his most fervent followers. Prostitutes and pagans, tax collectors and tricksters. The more unlikely, the more it seemed to please God and to demonstrate his power, might, and mercy. America in the 1960s and 1970s was full of unlikely people - men and women who had rejected the stuffy religion of their parents' generation, who didn't follow the rules, didn't fit in. The perfect setting for the greatest spiritual awakening of the 20th century.

With passion and purpose, Greg Laurie and Ellen Vaughn tell the amazing true story of the Jesus Movement, an extraordinary time of mass revival, renewal, and reconciliation. Setting fascinating personal stories within the context of one of the most tumultuous times in modern history, the authors draw important parallels with our own time of spiritual apathy or outright hostility, offering hope for the next generation of unlikely believers - and for the next great American revival.

Those who lived through the Jesus Revolution will find here an inspiring reminder of the times and people that shaped their lives and faith. Younger listeners will discover a forgotten part of recent American history and, along with it, a reason to believe that God is not finished with their generation.

Great history of early Calvary Chapel

This is a great read, it's a history of the late 60's and early 70's, popular political and social culture, as well as the Jesus Movement. The narrator is allright, though I was wishing it was Mr. Laurie, it wouldn't have sounded right with the perspective of the book. It's a lot of fun.

Churchianity.

I heard about the movie based on this book. I decided to read it before seeing it. I was born in the late 70s, raised in the church, and raised in the rural South. This book was thought provoking and convicting in many ways. I liked the historical aspects of the book that were woven into the story of our country’s latest Great Awakening. The ideas about enculturation and exclusion within faith bodies are things I will be praying about and pondering for the foreseeable future. Can we have another awakening? Absolutely. Am I prohibiting its arrival?

Love this book

I watched the movie and it’s the best movie I’ve ever watched so I wanted to read the book. This writing is very inspiring and gives me hope that I could get to experience a Jesus Revolution. I was a little girl when the Jesus Revolution was going on and with the help of this book I can remember a lot about it. This book has encouraged me.

Amazing

Amazing story that I knew very little of, despite being a teenager when the revolution began and grew to surprising proportions.

An amazing story of redemption

It was in the late '70s that I got serious about God. This story is similar to mine and it has encouraged me to return to my first love. I listened to Chuck Smith on a local Christian radio channel. There was a revival among high school kids in our city. We had a great fellowship with them teaching them about the new life God offers. Kudos to the narrator as she made this story come alive for me. Thank you, Greg Laurie, for writing this book and I hope it will encourage both young and old to give Jesus a chance to make their lives come alive thorough the redemption he freely gives to all.

Thank you

Thank you for helping me understand the generation my parents belonged to better. I was born in 1974. This book gave me a better understanding of the “whys” of the good, bad and ugly of Christianity that I grew up in during the 80s and 90s. As a Gen Xer I naturally struggle with cynicism… plus here in 2023 it’s the age of cynicism, I suppose… I want to be open to a revolution if it would be real and not controlled & fabricated by narcissistic leaders.
