Podcast appearances and mentions of Jesus movement

In this episode of the Greater Than Podcast, Elijah Murrell sits down with Kirk DuBois for a powerful and raw testimony of transformation.Before ministry, before Rhema, before miracles — there were drugs, the occult, and supernatural encounters that brought fear instead of peace. Kirk shares how a dramatic encounter with Jesus during the Jesus Movement changed everything. What began as curiosity led to a life-altering moment that replaced darkness with the presence and peace of God.Kirk opens up about the difference between counterfeit spiritual experiences and the genuine power of the Holy Spirit. He recounts powerful stories from the mission field — blind eyes opened, bodies healed, demons cast out — and explains why the presence of God is unlike anything the occult could offer.The conversation also dives into practical wisdom on being led by the Spirit. Kirk shares how grounding yourself in the Word of God is essential for discerning the voice of the Holy Spirit in a noisy world. With decades of ministry experience, he offers encouragement to young believers and those who feel called to something greater.Kirk's new book, No High Like the Most High, captures his journey and is written to equip the next generation to walk boldly with Jesus.This episode is a reminder that greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world.Get Kirk's bookhttps://www.amazon.com/No-High-Like-Most/dp/B0FV8GPTGY/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0

Phillip Kreis with Acts 16In this teaching, we walk through Acts 16 as a masterclass in what happens when ordinary people stop playing it safe and small and start following the Holy Spirit.  We see the gospel advance through Spirit-empowered obedience from Timothy's personal sacrifice to Lydia's open home, from midnight worship in a prison to Paul's strategic use of citizenship.  This message calls the church in Denver to refuse comfortable Christianity, listen to the Spirit, and obey with courage so the Jesus Movement can continue through us.

John invites Catherine to share her story of joining the Jesus Movement in the early 1970s and becoming trapped in a nomadic, authoritarian group led by Jim Roberts. Together, they explore how radical obedience, perfectionism, and apocalyptic urgency slowly replaced faith in Christ with fear-driven loyalty to leadership. As the conversation unfolds, John and Catherine connect these patterns to broader charismatic and revivalist movements, showing how fear, isolation, and leader-mediated obedience function as tools of control. The discussion offers insight for anyone trying to understand spiritual abuse, deconstruction, and how high-control religious systems reshape belief, identity, and relationships. ______________________ Weaponized Religion: From Christian Identity to the NAR: Paperback: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1735160962  Kindle: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DCGGZX3K  ______________________ - Support the channel: https://www.patreon.com/branham  - Visit the website: https://william-branham.org

Joshua Lewis with Acts 15In Acts 15, the early church wrestled with a question that still confronts us today: What does it take to get into God's family? Is it Jesus plus religious effort, moral improvement, or cultural conformity — or is Jesus enough? This message explores the beauty of grace. The Law was good, but it could never save. Only the grace of the Lord Jesus brings us in — and that grace doesn't leave us unchanged.

1 Timothy 3 “Although I hope I can come to you soon, I am writing these things to you now. Then, even if I am delayed, you will know how to live in the family of God. That family is the church of the living God, the support and foundation of the truth.” – 1 Tmothy 3:14-15  NCV Context: God provides a place. God gives life, gives love, and provides a place for us. From the Garden to the travels of his people with Tabernacles and a Temple, God lives among his people. God's design always includes his purpose, passion, pleasure, and places for relationship. God showed us love by sending Jesus Christ to be “God with us”, creating an opportunity for constant access. From the Garden to Tabernacles, Temple, and the local church, God's design has always included opportunities for stewardship and shared responsibilities. The stability of our lives is found by building our lives on the teaching of Jesus. The House of God is cared for and given further strength by Jesus' followers, ‘a priesthood of all believers' and 4 Gifts of equipping leaders who serve. With agape love as motivation, following the example of Jesus and the New Testament leaders, today's local church serving leaders function in their gifts and equip the believers to do the same. Jesus-followers lead by serving: “I am among you as one who serves.” – Jesus in Luke 22:20-27  Mark 10:43-45 Serve – to give help by performing certain duties, often of a humble or menial nature Choosing acts of service that show love and respect. “Whoever wants to be first must take last place and be the servant of everyone else.” – Jesus in Mark 9:33-37  John 12:26 “the leader should be like a servant,” – Jesus in Luke 22:26 Jesus' word “servant” = server, dedicated focused faithful – helper, attendant, apprentice, collaborator, companion “And since I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you ought to wash each other's feet. I have given you an example to follow. Do as I have done to you.” – John 13:14-15 “Whoever wants to be a leader among you must be your servant. For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve others and to give his life as a ransom for many.” – Matthew 20:26, 28 “Anyone who wants to serve me must follow me, because my servants must be where I am. And the Father will honor anyone who serves me.” – John 12:26 Deacon “Deacon” 1 Timothy 3:8 – servant of the master, helping/caring for the needs of believers according to their assignment (such as the stewardship of food provisions for those in need, in Acts 6:3) Please review our Deacon Bible Study. Qualifications listed in 1 Timothy 3:8-13   Our church family is served by a team of leaders, including deacons and elders, who meet the qualifications, seen in 1 Timothy 3:1-7; Titus 1:5-9.  A City Harbor Church Deacon is a person who has been selected, equipped, and recognized with specific serving leadership assignment (s). They have been chosen. They have responded with a commitment to a specific responsibility, within the vision, values, and expectations of City Harbor.  Elder Elder – overseer of the local church The Eldership has a spiritual responsibility for and is accountable to the Lord for their  stewardship of the overall vision, values and doctrine of the church as well as the spiritual  health of the congregation. This is all to ensure that the gospel is preached, people are  added to the church and people are discipled in order to live like Jesus and to share His love. Being an Elder is not about having  position but fulfilling a call to servant leadership through the care, oversight and leadership for the flock.   An Elder is an overseer of God's household which means they are a steward, charged with  the care of God's family. Paul says “he must be” as he starts to list out fifteen qualifications  to be an Elder. Fourteen of these qualifications are not describing gifting, but the character of an Elder that is needed to be an overseer of God's family. Lastly, Paul says an Elder must be able to teach sound doctrine. 1 Timothy 3:1 “What I say is true: Anyone wanting to become an overseer desires a good work. 2 An overseer must not give people a reason to criticize him, and he must have only one wife. He must be self-controlled, wise, respected by others, ready to welcome guests, and able to teach. 3 He must not drink too much wine or like to fight, but rather be gentle and peaceable, not loving money. 4 He must be a good family leader, having children who cooperate with full respect. 5 (If someone does not know how to lead the family, how can that person take care of God's church?) 6 But an elder must not be a new believer, or he might be too proud of himself and be judged guilty just as the devil was. 7 An elder must also have the respect of people who are not in the church so he will not be criticized by others and caught in the devil's trap.” – 1 Timothy 3:1-7  NCV Titus 1:5 “I left you in Crete so you could finish doing the things that still needed to be done and so you could appoint elders in every town, as I directed you. 6 An elder must not be guilty of doing wrong, must have only one wife, and must have believing children. They must not be known as children who are wild and do not cooperate. 7 As God's managers, overseers must not be guilty of doing wrong, being selfish, or becoming angry quickly. They must not drink too much wine, like to fight, or try to get rich by cheating others. 8 Overseers must be ready to welcome guests, love what is good, be wise, live right, and be holy and self-controlled. 9 By holding on to the trustworthy word just as we teach it, overseers can help people by using true teaching, and they can show those who are against the true teaching that they are wrong.” – Titus 1:5-9  NCV “I exhort the elders among you as a fellow elder and witness to the sufferings of Christ, as well as one who shares in the glory about to be revealed: 2 Shepherd God's flock among you, not overseeing out of compulsion but willingly, as God would have you; not out of greed for money but eagerly; 3 not lording it over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock. 4 And when the chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the unfading crown of glory. 5 In the same way, you who are younger, be subject to the elders. All of you clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, because ‘God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble.'” – 1 Peter 5:1-5  CSB  (Peter to the elders) Elders are shepherds of God's flock and in caring for them, they are to watch over them and care for them with a servant's heart. An Elder leads God's flock, not by what they get  out of it, but by giving to others and being a living example of how to live a Godly life marked by humility. “Be on guard for yourselves and for all the flock of which the Holy Spirit has appointed you as overseers, to shepherd the church of God, which he purchased with his own blood.” – Acts 20:28  CSB (Paul to the Ephesian elders)  context of Acts 20:17-30 Giving “attention to prayer and the ministry of the word.” – Acts 6:3-4  NIV What is an elder? 1.       Born again Jesus follower, water baptized, received the Holy Spirit, committed to a local church. 2.       Having been assessed to meet the requirements of 1 Timothy 3:1-7, Titus 1:5-9, and faithful in the directives of 1 Peter 5:1-5, Acts 20:28 3.       Proven to have been faithful in serving and solid in the teaching of Scripture, not new to this. 4.       Set into the team of overseers of God's household which means they are a steward, charged with the care of God's family. 5.       Giving attention to prayer. & Ready to pray for the healing of the sick. 6.       Being able to teach sound doctrine, a pastor/teacher with a shepherd's heart, for the equipping of the believers to do the work of the ministry. 7.       Living like Jesus in lifestyle of integrity, as an example. What is an elder not? 1.       A boss using coercion. 2.       Free to do whatever they want, however they want. 3.       A lifetime appointee. What should we do? 1.       Gladly receive & respect our elders, according to Scripture. 2.       Pray for their stewardship of our local church. 3.       Pray for the expansion of the Jesus Movement thru us. 4.       Express gratitude to each person who serves our church.

Acts 14 with Lauren Rowe In Acts 14, we see the gospel advance through both belief and opposition as Paul and Barnabas preach boldly despite persecution. As they enter pagan cities, they show us the importance of knowing our audience, identifying the idols people live for, and pointing them to the living God rather than “worthless things.” This passage challenges us to examine our own hearts and ask what we're truly building our lives around—dead things or the living God. Ultimately, Acts 14 calls us to resilient faith, reminding us that following Christ will involve hardship, but He is worth far more than anything we might lose.

Acts 13 with Josh Lewis As Paul and Barnabas begin their missionary journey we see how and why they share the gospel in Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria and the ends of the earth. What does it look like to move towards others as the gospel demands.

February 1st, 2026 | Encounter | Isaiah 64:1-4What does it really mean to pray for revival—and why aren't more believers desperate for it?In this message from the Encounter series, Pastor Todd Kaunitz unpacks the biblical meaning of revival: to live again. Drawing from Isaiah's cry in Isaiah 64:1–4, Pastor Todd walks through five powerful themes that shape a genuine prayer for revival—crisis, visitation, transformation, remembrance, and longing.This sermon confronts the spiritual crisis facing God's people, calls for a fresh visitation of God's presence, and explores how true revival transforms not only the church but entire cultures. From historic awakenings like the First and Second Great Awakenings, the 1857 Prayer Revival, the Welsh Revival, and the Jesus Movement, to modern glimpses of God's presence, listeners are reminded that every move of God is preceded by desperate, faithful prayer.Like a barren desert waiting for rain, this message calls the church to wait actively, cry out boldly, and believe that God still pours Himself out on those who seek Him.A timely and stirring call to pray for more than a mist—for a torrential downpour of God's Spirit.Do you know JESUS?: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nblongview.org/do-you-know-jesus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Need PRAYER?: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nblongview.org/pray⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SUPPORT through giving: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbbctx.org/giving⁠⁠⁠

Acts 10-12 with Joshua LewisIn Acts 10–12, we see a God who is already on the move — crossing boundaries, disrupting assumptions, and drawing unexpected people to Himself. Peter discovers that he isn't bringing God to new places; he's joining what God is already doing. This message invites us to pay attention, to pray, and to ask how we might show up differently if God is already at work in the lives of the people around us.

The Underground Speaker: Michael Shockley, ReCreate Church Scripture: Luke 12:35-46 Episode Summary Recorded on a Saturday night before a predicted winter storm, Pastor Michael addresses a week in which church protestors made headlines. Using a creative allegory read by his 15-year-old son Elijah, he reminds us that the Jesus Movement has always been underground - not about hiding, but about unshakeable loyalty to a different Kingdom while living as infiltrators on a rescue mission in enemy territory. Key Points – The Church isn't the establishment - we're the resistance on a rescue mission, not another cog in a political machine – Jesus left behind faithful followers to spread His teachings until His return, knowing they'd face opposition from the world's power structures – The danger isn't persecution - it's forgetting our purpose and getting distracted by culture wars, preferences, and complacency – When churches stop being a movement and become a club for member comfort, they drift from their mission – Our weapons aren't political or violent but spiritual - we win people to Jesus, not just culture wars – Jesus will return unannounced, and we must be found faithful, watching, and actively sharing the Good News Main Takeaway We aren't the establishment - we are the resistance on a rescue mission. The Jesus Movement has always been underground, made up of people with courage to live by different values and refuse to be reshaped by the dominant culture. Our calling isn't to make unbelievers act like believers through politics, but to show them the transforming love of Jesus. We're not-so-secret agents planted by the True King, and we must stay faithful to that mission. Memorable Quotes – "We aren't the establishment - we are the resistance, and we're on a rescue mission." – "An underground movement isn't about hiding - it's about unshakeable loyalty." – "They were obsessed with how dark the world was, instead of sharing the light. They were so caught up in guarding doors, they forgot they were supposed to open them." – "Our ultimate purpose isn't to win culture wars - it's to win people to Jesus." – "We are not the ruling power - we never have been. We are The Underground." – "We need to do more than trying to get unbelievers to act like believers. We need to show them the love and peace and transformation of Jesus." Reflection Question Have you forgotten that you're part of an underground movement on a rescue mission, getting distracted instead by culture wars, preferences, or the comfort of Christian community rather than actively sharing Jesus with people who need Him? Tune in to hear the powerful allegory of The Great and Powerful King read by Pastor Michael's son Elijah, why his dog is wreaking havoc on his allergies, and what Jesus' shocking language about servants being cut in pieces really means for us today.

Acts 8 & 9 with Joshua LewisIn Acts 8–9, God is on the move — scattering the church, interrupting Saul, and inviting ordinary people into obedience. Through the stories of Philip, Simon, Saul, and Ananias, this message explores the different ways people respond to God's activity and challenges us with a simple but profound question: Will you say yes to God?

 Drawing extensively from Revelation 2–3, this teaching examines the seven churches as real historical congregations, recurring spiritual conditions present throughout church history, and a prophetic mirror especially relevant to the last days. Beginning with Christ's warning to Laodicea, the speaker exposes how material affluence, consumerism, and “people's opinions” have produced a lukewarm church that believes itself rich while remaining spiritually blind and naked. Moving church by church—from Ephesus' loss of first love, Smyrna's persecution, Pergamum's compromise, Thyatira's false sacrifice, Sardis' dead orthodoxy, and Philadelphia's faithful mission—the message traces how cultural shifts repeatedly force the church to choose between biblical recontextualization (changing the packaging, not the gospel) and theological redefinition (changing the gospel itself). Through historical examples ranging from Augustine and Aquinas to Wesley, the Jesus Movement, and modern evangelical trends, the teaching issues a sober warning: when the church replaces repentance, discipleship, and truth with programs, experiences, tolerance, or prosperity, it risks becoming Laodicea—called not to innovate, but to repent, open the door to Christ, and recover true spiritual sight. 

Acts 6 & 7 with Joshua LewisIn Acts 6–7, Stephen becomes the first martyr of the church—and the turning point of the Jesus Movement. In this sermon, we walk through Stephen's trial, his sweeping retelling of Israel's story, and his bold claim that God has never been confined to a building or controlled by tradition. Stephen listens to the Holy Spirit, obeys faithfully, and pays a real cost—but his obedience becomes the spark that sends the gospel beyond Jerusalem and into the world. This passage confronts us with a sobering truth: listening to God is good, but it is not always safe—and refusing to listen means missing what God is doing entirely.

After the resurrection of Jesus, Peter returned to his old lifestyle, assuming the "Jesus Movement" was all but over. However, Jesus came looking for Peter and reminded him that His ministry was only beginning. Peter confessed to Jesus that he wasn't sure he was willing to be as devoted as He was asking and expecting him to be. Jesus informed Peter that in due time, he would come to see the value and necessity to surrender all to God... Years later, Peter sat down and wrote to the churches scattered throughout Rome and called every believer to step into their new identity in Christ. He called them (and us), "a chosen generation", "a royal priesthood", and "a holy nation". He compelled us all to taste and see that there is so much more to life than what this world offers to us. Listen as we hear Peter's invitation and learn what is fully offered to us from our new birth in Christ.

From the streets of New York City to prisons across the Deep South, this powerful episode of Truth Talk Live features the remarkable life and ministry of Tom Maharis, longtime pastor of Manhattan Bible Church and a fiery evangelist with a heart for the broken. From the Jesus Movement, Woodstock era searching, and a dramatic encounter with Christ in 1968, Tom shares how God redeemed a life once marked by sex, drugs, and rock and roll,and turned it into decades of Gospel impact.

Acts 6 with Josh LewisA new year often awakens our longing for growth—personally, spiritually, and as a church. In Acts 6, we're given an honest picture of what real growth looks like in the life of God's people. As the early church multiplies, pressure rises, distractions emerge, and resistance follows close behind. Yet rather than shrinking back, the apostles respond by protecting devotion to prayer and the Word of God. This passage reminds us that while growth is a gift from God, it always comes at a cost—and that faithful, lasting growth is formed not through control or efficiency, but through grace-fueled effort and dependence on the Holy Spirit.

Acts 5 with Shaun Garman

Sandra Teplinsky is an American-Israeli Messianic Jew, former attorney, and author based in Jerusalem. Raised on the South Side of Chicago, Sandra experienced antisemitism early in life—an upbringing that shaped both her faith journey and her long-term focus on helping the church understand Israel through a biblical lens. Through decades of study and ministry, she has written and updated Why Still Care About Israel to address common theological misconceptions, church-history blind spots, and the interpretive frameworks that still shape how many Christians think about Israel today. In this episode of The Wow Factor, Brad sits down with Sandra to explore why so many people are asking the wrong questions about Israel, and why the better starting point is, "Who is our God, and what is He doing?" Sandra shares a defining calling moment from her time in Los Angeles during the late Jesus Movement era, where she describes sensing Jesus' grief and love for the Jewish people.  From there, the conversation moves into antisemitism, what it is, how it spreads, and how certain theological ideas can unintentionally fuel it. Sandra explains supersessionism (often called replacement theology), points listeners to Romans 9–11 as foundational, and describes why humility, repentance, and Scripture-led thinking matter as global hostility rises and Israel remains central in the news. "Israel is the apple of God's eye, whoever would harm Israel is like sticking a finger in the eye of God." – Sandra Teplinsky "The ultimate question isn't, 'Are you for this side or that side?' The ultimate question is: Who is our God?" – Sandra Teplinsky "Paul cautions Gentile believers: don't be arrogant… Israel has experienced a hardening in part until the fullness comes in." – Sandra Teplinsky This Week on The Wow Factor: How Brad met Sandra through a chaotic Israel trip—and why her book stood out immediately Sandra's childhood experience with antisemitism and how it shaped her pursuit of truth A working definition of antisemitism and why it's not only external behavior Sandra's Los Angeles calling moment and a lifelong focus on praying for Israel's salvation "Apple of His eye" and what spiritual blindness can look like in the church Why Israel is rarely taught clearly in many Western churches and seminaries The impact of church-history interpretation shifts on modern theology Supersessionism / replacement theology: what it is and why it matters Romans 9–11 as a framework for God's ongoing purposes for Israel End-times curiosity, modern Aliyah, and rising pressure on Jewish communities worldwide The story of "S" and how Scripture confronted hatred at the heart level Practical steps: humility, repentance, and asking the Holy Spirit to reveal wrong thinking Why blessing Israel can't just be transactional—and needs to be rooted in loving God Sandra Teplinsky's Word of Wisdom: Start with humility. Ask the Holy Spirit to search your heart, and let Scripture interpret Scripture. Caring about Israel isn't meant to be a trend or an argument—it's about aligning with the heart and character of God and learning to love who He loves.

Acts 4:36–5:16 with Josh LewisIn Acts 4–5, Luke pulls back the curtain on the early church and shows us a community marked by radical generosity, deep unity, and the powerful presence of the Holy Spirit. But alongside a beautiful example in Barnabas, we're confronted with a sobering counterfeit in Ananias and Sapphira. This passage invites us to wrestle honestly with God's holiness, the danger of performative faith, and why God cares far more about truth and integrity than religious image

the early church, the Spirit shows up in power—not simply with miracles or bold preaching, but with a community whose hands suddenly open. After praying for courage, the believers in Acts 4 experience a fresh arrival of God's presence, and the result is radical unity and radical generosity. This week we explore how God frees our hearts from fear, loosens our grip on our possessions, and forms a people who testify to Jesus in both word and deed.

James: True Successor and Leadership of Jerusalem Movement — James Tabor — Tabor argues that James, Jesus's biological brother, functioned as the authentic successor to the Jesus movement leadership, not Peter as traditionally claimed. Tabor cites non-canonical textual sources and the Acts of the Apostles demonstrating that Jamespresided over the Jerusalem Council, making determinations regarding Jewish law observance by Christian converts. Tabor emphasizes the profound familial bond between the brothers and documents Mary's presence with Jesus and James at the crucifixion scene, indicating James maintained centrality to Jesus's personal and theological circle. 1698

The church is in a moment of honest reckoning. Attendance is shrinking, institutions are thinning, and many who once belonged now stand on the outside looking in. In this conversation with author and priest Stephanie Spellers, we explore what the “nones” and “dones” are teaching us about faith, community, and the way of Jesus. Stephanie invites us to look directly at decline, name the shame we carry, and listen to the prophetic longings rising from a generation hungry for authenticity, belonging, and spiritual depth. We talk about Christian nationalism, idolized structures, meeting God outside our buildings, the table as a site of renewal, and the possibility of becoming a true Jesus movement again. If you care about where the church is headed, or whether new life can emerge from the dry bones, this episode offers clarity, courage, and hope.Rev. Stephanie Spellers is a renowned author, Episcopal priest and change agent. Her newest book, "Church Tomorrow?: What the Nones and Dones Teach Us About the Future of Faith," explores the stories of nonreligious young Americans and their prophetic charge to traditional, declining religion. She recently completed nearly a decade leading The Episcopal Church's work on evangelism, racial reconciliation and environmental justice.

Acts 4:23–37 with Josh LewisIn the face of fear, opposition, and uncertainty, the early church didn't shrink back—they prayed, were filled again with the Holy Spirit, and overflowed with radical generosity. In this teaching, we explore how God's presence forms a people who give freely, courageously, and joyfully because they know the generosity they have received in Christ.

Acts 1-4 with Joshua LewisJesus promises a beautiful Kingdom—but tells his disciples to wait for power. This teaching walks through Acts 1–4 and the pattern of the early church: wait, witness, face resistance, pray, and receive fresh boldness by the Holy Spirit.

Acts 16 with Shaun GarmanIn Acts 16, we see a God who redirects steps, shuts strategic doors, and then opens human hearts in ways only He can. From Timothy's faithfulness to Lydia's conversion, to Paul and Silas singing in a prison cell, this passage reveals a Spirit who leads with both authority and tenderness. Shaun walks us through this incredible chapter, inviting us to see the Jesus who still frees captives, confronts evil, and meets His people in their wounds.

Listen as Pastor Rob McCoy—Charlie Kirk's pastor and close friend—addresses the conspiracy theories targeting those closest to Charlie, explains why Christians must reject speculation and "vain babbling," and issues an urgent call to pastors about the moment we're in.Charlie Kirk discipled an entire generation out of intellectual slavery. He gave them biblical confidence and taught them how to think. Now, in the aftermath of his death, Christians are being swept into conspiracy theories instead of focusing on what God is doing through this tragedy. Pastor Rob explains why this is spiritual warfare, how to maintain biblical peace amid chaos, and why this revival will fail without proper discipleship.✅ YOU'LL LEARN:How to apply 2 Timothy 2:14-17 to conspiracy theories and speculationWhy joy (not happiness) and peace (not absence of conflict) matter nowThe Moses/Joshua framework: Charlie freed them, pastors must lead themWhy the Jesus Movement had massive conversions but zero cultural impactWhat discipleship (not conversion) actually looks like in practice

Guest Speaker Andy Rodgers from our Restored Family of Churches

Acts 2:1–47 with Joshua LewisWhen the Spirit of God fell at Pentecost, the disciples didn't just receive power—they became a new kind of people. What began as prayer turned into boldness, generosity, and community that the world had never seen. This is how the Jesus Movement began, and it's what the Spirit still wants to do among us today.

Dr. Hal Sacks, an Orthodox Jewish man from Hollywood, helped pioneer television and even filmed the Jesus Movement—but he refused to believe in Jesus… until one supernatural encounter changed everything. In this powerful episode, Hal shares his divine moment at the Western Wall, his encounter with Kathryn Kuhlman, and the miraculous healings that followed. His story reveals how the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is still moving in power today—and how YOU can experience His presence and healing right now.To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.lightsource.com/donate/885/29 To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1489/29

Acts 1:1–14 with Joshua LewisBefore his ascension, Jesus told his followers to wait—not for a strategy or a result, but for a gift. The Holy Spirit isn't a tool to accomplish God's work; he is God's presence among us. This teaching calls us to resist our obsession with outcomes and rediscover the beauty of waiting, praying, and joining together as God moves again in our time.

Nikita Koloff sits down with Petra's founding drummer Bill Glover to talk about faith, music, and the impact of the Jesus Movement. Bill also turns the tables by asking Nikita a few questions of his own.

Mary Clayton Crow's life has been marked by radical generosity from the very beginning. After coming to faith in the Jesus Movement of the 70s, Mary Clayton's parents freely shared all they had while living in community with other Believers, regularly opening their home to missionaries, and eventually becoming missionaries themselves behind the Iron Curtain. This model of radical generosity set a strong foundation for Mary Clayton's adult life as she lives to “give generously, expecting nothing in return.”   Mary Clayton has a rich passion for relational, spontaneous generosity, often giving away personal items admired by others as a way to express God's love while resisting the trap of materialism. She is also passionate about collaborative giving, and takes part in several giving communities that invest in local ministries, not only with their finances, but with their time and talents as well.   Major Topics Include: Making generosity your own Being stretched and challenged in generosity Wrestling the “elder brother” mentality What does it really mean to expect nothing in return? A Lenten generosity challenge Resisting materialism with generosity  Modeling generosity to your family The power of community giving to local ministries  Guarding against generosity burnout Hearing from the Holy Spirit through other people Creating a visual reminder to give generously QUOTES TO REMEMBER “You can never outgive God. It's going to come back to you 10-fold, 20-fold, 30-fold, 100-fold. And it may not be in dollars and cents, but it will be in joy.” “I love generosity because it makes sharing the gospel so easy.” “Expecting nothing in return means releasing the result and putting it in the Lord's hand.” “We need to detach ourselves from things owning us so we can be stewards of the things God has given us.” “Generous tipping is one of the easiest ways to be an evangelist.” “I'm excited to chase God.” “I'm looking forward to God disrupting my life for new adventures.” LINKS FROM THE SHOW Julie Wilson, President of Women Doing Well (see our past interview here) Young Life One Hundred Shares The Finish Line Community Facebook Group The Finish Line Community LinkedIn Group BIBLE REFERENCES FROM THE SHOW Luke 21:3-4 | The Widow's Offering   And he said, “Truly, I tell you, this poor widow has put in more than all of them.

What does it mean to stand in the land of Israel with the heart of a father? In this episode, Messianic leader and pioneer Eitan Shishkoff shares his journey from the Jesus Movement in California to planting communities of faith in the Galilee.  Through decades of ministry among Israeli Jews and returning immigrants, Eitan has carried a consistent call: to embody the spirit of Elijah by turning hearts, building bridges, and preparing the way for the Messiah. He shares the story behind Tents of Mercy, reflects on the struggles and beauty of Aliyah, and casts a vision for unity between Jewish and Arab believers within Israel. With humility and hope, Eitan calls the global Church to recognize its connection to Israel - not as charity, but as family. Key Takeaways Aliyah is Biblical and Now: Jewish return to the land isn't political - it's prophetic. From Revolution to Restoration: Eitan's early years in the Jesus Movement sparked a lifelong mission rooted in Scripture and Spirit. Unity in Diversity: True reconciliation in Israel means standing with both Jewish and Arab believers, without compromise. The Spirit of Elijah: God is turning the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the hearts of the children to the fathers - across generations and nations. Beyond the Headlines: The real story of Israel isn't found in the news - it's found in the hearts of those living out God's promises daily.

In this episode of the Outlaw Radio Show, Pastor Zach and the Boys discuss how California went from the birthplace of the Jesus Movement to Sodom and Gomorrah in one generation.

[Originally aired: 5/4/23] Chuck Girard, singer, songwriter, recording artist, and worship leader, is one of the pioneers of Contemporary Christian Music. He was co-founder and lead singer of the group LOVE SONG from it's beginning to the present. Born in Los Angeles, Chuck began playing music at an early age. In his teens, he formed a group called THE CASTELLS, which had two national top 20 hits. They also released the song “I Do”, which was produced by Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys. Chuck shared the stage with stars such as Roy Orbison, Jan and Dean, Jerry Lee Lewis, Bobby Vee, and others. This led to a successful career as a studio singer and musician which included singing the lead vocals on THE HONDELLS first two albums and their biggest hit, “Little Honda.” In his early twenties Chuck became disillusioned with life, and like so many of his generation began experimenting with drugs. This led to a five-year search for God through LSD, eastern religion, and a committed “hippie” lifestyle.  Rock & Roll Preacher - Chuck Girard After years of searching for meaning through drugs, Buddhism, sex, and Eastern philosophy, a long-haired hippie musician walked his bare feet into a little country church and encountered the living God. Confounded by the simplicity of the gospel, a young Chuck Girard dedicated his life to Jesus during the height of the sexual revolution and civil unrest that characterized the decade of the '60s. Along with thousands of other "Jesus Freaks" who came to be known as the Jesus Movement, Chuck's story was only just getting started. This raw and honest memoir is both refreshing and convicting.  MORE Love Song - The Band, The Ministry, The Movement [Trailer] Follow Chuck and Love Song on Facebook!

As we witness a growing hunger for spiritual truth in our culture, we have to ask—are we on the edge of another Jesus Revolution? Pastor Greg Laurie shares why he believes we just might be. Notes: Focus verse - Nehemiah 9 Could this be the start of another spiritual awakening? The objective of proclamation evangelism is to clearly preach the gospel and invite people to Christ. Isaiah 43:19 (KJV) Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? Acts 2:17 (NLT) 'In the last days,' God says, 'I will pour out my Spirit upon all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy. Your young men will see visions, and your old men will dream dreams.’ Psalm 85:6 (NLT)Won't you revive us again, so your people can rejoice in you? Younger men are more likely to become Christians than younger women. Is this another national spiritual awakening? I hope and pray it is. Gen Z has the highest suicide rate of any generation. Teens regularly use AI companions instead of human interaction. The only hope for this generation is Jesus and, for that matter, any generation. #1 In the US we have had four great spiritual awakenings.The first one happened in America before we were a nation in 1740. George Whitfield’s preaching drew massive crowds. The first Great Awakening didn’t just change hearts, it helped shape the moral DNA of the United States. America is exceptional. America is unique.America has been established by God. George Washington was quick to give credit to God for his success on the battlefield. #2 The second Great Awakening occurred during 1790s to 1840s and was led by many, including Charles Finney. #3 The third Great Awakening in America was from about 1857–1859.This revival began when a 48-year-old businessman namedJeremiah Lanphier began a prayer meeting on Fulton Street in New York City. “Revival is the rekindling of a flame, and when the fire is lit,it doesn’t just warm the church—it lights up the world!” —David Jeremiah #4 The fourth Great Awakening was the Jesus Movement. #1 Revival is coming back to life. Revival is refreshment; it’s restoration; it’s returning to original condition. Psalm 80:19 (ESV) Restore us, O LORD God! Let your face shine, that we may be saved! A revival is when God’s people come back to life again. A spiritual awakening is what America needs. Revival is what the church needs. Revelation 2:4–5 (NKJV) "…you have left your first love. Remember therefore from where you have fallen; repent and do the first works,” #2 Revival is waking from sleep. It’s turning from sin. God’s prescription for revival or restoration is in 2 Chronicles 7:14. Read Nehemiah 9:1–4 (NLT) #3 If we want to see revival, we must pray with passion. Matthew 15:22 (NLT)"Have mercy on me, O Lord, Son of David! My daughter is possessed by a demon…" We need to pray like early church prayed for Peter to be delivered from prison.Acts 12:5 Fervent means displaying passionate intensity. #4 If you want to see revival, you must confess your sins. We all have sins to confess each and every day. 1 John 1:8 (NKJV) If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. A sin of commission is doing what you should not do.A sin of omission is not doing what you should do.James 4:17 #5 They separated themselves from ungodly influences. #6 They heard God’s word, and they acted on it. The Bible is our model for how we ought to think and to live. John 15:14 (KJV)You are my friends, if you do whatsoever I command you. God told Joshua the secret to success.Joshua 1:7 (NLT) #7 Revival always leads to evangelism. The evidence of revival is a changed community. Acts 2:41 (NIV) Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day. John 4:35 (NIV)“I tell you, open your eyes and look at the fields! They are ripe for harvest.” New believers need older believers to stabilize them.Older believers need new believers to energize them. --- Learn more about Greg Laurie and Harvest Ministries at harvest.org.
