Podcast appearances and mentions of jesus revolution

In this message from our Summer at the Movies series, Pastor Mark Cain dives into the powerful true story behind the film Jesus Revolution. Set in the cultural chaos of the 1960s, this sermon challenges the church to trade gatekeeping for grace and make space for the outcast. Through his own radical encounter with Jesus, Pastor Mark shows what happens when God's work is bigger than our world.

Could redefining masculinity through the lens of Christlikeness transform not just individuals, but entire communities? Join us as we sit down with Robert Barriger, an ex-surfer from Southern California whose life took a radical turn during the Jesus Revolution. His journey took him all the way to Peru, where he and his wife Karen have established Camino de Vida, a church that has become a beacon of hope and change throughout Latin America. Robert shares his compelling story, painting a vivid picture of how faith and leadership intersect to create powerful transformations in people’s lives. As we reminisce about the cultural upheaval of the 1960s and 70s, parallels emerge with today's societal divisions, sparking a conversation on inclusivity and the role of churches in embracing those often marginalized. Robert reflects on historical and modern movements, like Calvary Chapel's open arms to youth in rebellion, and how his own church, Comunidad Vida in Lima, has grown amidst daunting challenges. His involvement in the Christian Men's Network underscores the power of focusing on positive developments even in regions often plagued by negative headlines, offering hope that good news can spring from the most unlikely places. This episode wraps up with a thought-provoking discussion on the importance of fatherhood and community, particularly as we face alarming trends among younger generations. We explore ideas of healthy masculinity and leadership, challenging traditional notions of success and competition. With insights from Robert's mentoring experiences across borders, we journey through the potential of faith-based communities to redefine strength, nurture future leaders, and ultimately offer solace and purpose in a rapidly changing world.

This week, Rick Altizer sits down once again with acclaimed filmmaker Jon Erwin—the visionary behind Jesus Revolution, I Can Only Imagine, American Underdog, and more—for an inspiring conversation on storytelling, creativity, and faith in film.Live from Athens, Greece, Jon opens up about his journey from music videos to blockbuster faith-based films, how a $3,800 camera is revolutionizing streaming content, and what it's like to have creative control on a nine-figure deal with Amazon's Wonder Project. He shares insider insights on the making of House of David, the impact of true stories, and his heart for serving the local church through media.Whether you're a film lover, a creative, or someone exploring faith through entertainment, this episode is a powerful reminder that stories—when told with authenticity and purpose—can change lives.

As a Calvary Chapel, our family of churches was at the center of the Jesus Revolution of the late 1960s and 1970s, the last great revival to sweep across this country and globe. A key characteristic of our family of churches is the characteristic of being gospel-centered or full of grace and truth. As Pastor Chuck opened the doors to the hippies of his day, people of the prevailing secular culture were welcome to consider the claims of Jesus, and the practical and moral implications of His gospel. This radical culture is part of our past, present, and Lord willing future.We upload our message only version to our church app. If you would like to view this week's entire worship service you can find it by clicking the available link.

Liz's story is one of resilience, rediscovery, and grace—and we're honored to share it with you today. She begins by telling us she was born in Arizona, but her early years were shaped by her father's role as a traveling evangelist. As she grew older, Liz came to see how much of her father's passion for ministry was inspired by the Jesus Revolution. Life on the road wasn't easy. Liz speaks candidly about the challenges of growing up in a family constantly on the move. For a time, they even lived in a bus—a reality that left her feeling embarrassed and isolated, especially at school. Even after the traveling stopped, her family continued to relocate frequently throughout the Valley. They rarely stayed in the same church or school for more than a year, and this instability began to distort Liz's understanding of what community—especially Christian community—could be. Much of the faith she encountered in those years felt lonely, restrictive, and at times, judgmental. Liz found herself longing for independence, counting down the days until she turned 18 so she could create a life of her own. That journey began when she enrolled at Phoenix College, where she met her husband, Buddy. Their early years together were sweet, and before long, they were welcoming a baby boy—and shortly after, a baby girl—into the world. With motherhood came a shift in Liz's heart. She felt a deep desire to raise her children with an understanding of who God is. Though Buddy wasn't actively pursuing faith at the time, he fully supported Liz's efforts to introduce their kids to Jesus. This marked the beginning of a slow but meaningful return to God. As the kids started attending a Christian school, a fellow parent invited Liz to visit Desert Springs. She calls it a “visit” that lasted four years—coming regularly but still holding back. And then, something began to change. Liz started to take real steps into community, into faith, and into relationship with God again. Today, Liz speaks with honesty and humility about her journey—about the ways God has reshaped her heart and mind over time. Her story reminds us that faith is often a winding road, but one full of hope, healing, and transformation. We're so grateful Liz chose to share that road with us.Pastor Steve's January 2025 sermon on deconstructionBuddy's (Liz's husband!) testimony videoWant to share your story on The Stories Collective podcast in 2025?

On this episode of The Disciple-Making Parent, we explore the concept of "disenculturation" as an alternative to "deconstruction." We sit down with Collin Hansen, Vice President for content and editor in chief at the Gospel Coalition, to understand how Christians can evaluate their cultural practices through a biblical lens.Through engaging examples from church history, we examine how to distinguish between essential biblical truths and cultural practices that have become intertwined with faith. From worship styles to dress codes, we discuss how different generations navigate these distinctions. We also tackle challenging topics like historical Christian responses to racism and segregation, while offering practical advice for parents and pastors on helping their communities distinguish between non-negotiable faith elements and cultural expressions.Drawing from examples like the Jesus Revolution and contemporary church practices, we learn how to maintain strong biblical convictions while showing grace toward different cultural expressions of faith. ----NEW RESOURCE: "Launch: Biblical Help to Move Your Teen or Young Adult Into the Real World" - A concise one-hour read packed with essential guidance for parents navigating the challenging transition of teens into adulthood.

My last episode ended with the popular song, “I love you Lord”, that we sang  in the 80s. It was representative of the message, that came out of the "Jesus People" movement; “Jesus loves you and calls you to follow him.” Our daughters were growing up, with the modern choruses of praise music, that began in the early 70s. Gone were the days of singing the hymns that I grew up with in the Methodist church. And the organ was being replaced by guitars, violins, flutes, tamborines and microphones for the singers. There were new churches and ministries springing up all over the world. For Thomas and I, our exposure to this kind of music, started at "Living Waters"; singing the scriptures to melodies, that were written by people that we knew. This development of new praise was organic, and stemmed from, an inspirational type of Bible teaching. I look at it now, as a historical period, in modern culture that partly resulted from the counterculture movement called the “Summer of Love”. For many young people like myself, we were hearing a fresh kind, of Christian message. It was simple, it was real, it was miraculous, because lives were being transformed. Many people, had no idea that the influence of the “Jesus Revolution”, was also taking place all over the world.

 My Impressions of Larry Norman & the start of new Christian music

Movie director Jon Erwinis someone who has had great success over the years. From October Baby way back in 2011 to Jesus Revolution and back to I Can Only Imagine, the Birmingham, Alabama native has always had a knack for finding and telling stories that resonate with people deeply for their foundational family values told through the lens of faith.Erwin is also someone who is a collector and keeper of past memories that have developed into projects he is passionate about. One needs to look no further than his 2023 releaseJesus Revolution starring Kelsey Grammer and Jonathan Roumie. Intrigued by a 1966 Time Magazine cover stating “Is God Dead?”, Erwin carried around the magazine in his computer bag for nearly a decade before turning that base idea into the aforementioned movie that generated $54 million at the box office.His latest passion project is a new 8-episode limited series currently airing on Amazon Prime called House of David. Stemming from a vivid memory he had visiting Israel with his father at age 16, Erwin thought that one day he could make a sweeping, visually spectacular recreation on the life of King David from the Old Testament.Starring Broadway actor Michael Iskander, Ali Suliman, Ayelet Zurer, and Stephen Lang, House of David tells the story of the ascent of the aforementioned beloved Biblical figure, who eventually becomes the most renowned and celebrated king of Israel.Erwin and Iskander join us on the podcast to discuss the critical importance of Biblical accuracy in retelling David's story, why this popular figure of the Old Testament is considered the first superhero in human history, and how this project humbled each of them.

Around 2.4 billion people today call themselves followers of Jesus, yet many barely know what he actually taught. Too often, we reduce Christianity to simply believing in Jesus' death and resurrection to secure our place in heaven. But Jesus' teachings offer much more—a revolutionary vision of life meant to transform us here and now.In this message we focus on Jesus' teaching on the Kingdom of God. What does it truly mean to live under the reign of God? How does understanding the Kingdom reshape the way we love, forgive, and pursue justice in our daily lives?Join us as we unpack the transformative teachings of Jesus and learn how embodying Kingdom values can profoundly impact our relationships, communities, and world. If you're ready for a faith that's alive, authentic, and deeply connected to the heart of God, this message is for you!

Today, I sit down with the fantastic JON ERWIN, director of Amazon's newest hit show, House of David. Along with that, we discuss his other projects like Jesus Revolution, I Can Only Imagine, and starting The Wonder Project, and what makes him one of the most talented Christian creatives out there today...

Host Pat Reidy had the unique opportunity to sit down to an intimate conversation with Jonathan Roumie in front of a small, live JSerra audience while Jonathan was on campus in August of 2024. The audio of their interview is presented here in its entirety. With both laughter and poignancy, The Chosen actor explains his work and hobbies prior to acting, the crisis moment that led to his total surrender to Christ, and how God's miraculous response to that prayer landed him his first lead role after a 20-year struggle in Hollywood. With humility, sincerity, and approachability, Jonathan discusses why his faith is the center of his life and how playing the role of Jesus has revolutionized not only his career, but his entire life. Jonathan Roumie spent 20 years in Hollywood playing minor roles and doing voice overs when the creator of the hit Christian series, The Chosen, with whom Jonathan had previously work, called and asked Jonathan if he was, “ready to put the sandals back on.” That moment changed the struggling actor's career. The Chosen is the first ever crowdfunded streaming series and has come to be known and loved by Catholics and Christians across the world. Many fans and critics call Jonathan's version of Jesus “the best in any film or television depiction.” Jonathan grew up in a first-generation American family on the east coast and was raised Catholic. His depiction of Jesus demonstrates a personal intimacy with Christ that comes through in the humanity and accessibility he lends to the role. Jonathan talks about this aspect of learning how to play Jesus, from his prayer life to his being overwhelmed to be associated with the God whom he loves and serves. Besides The Chosen, the actor is also known for his role as evangelist Lonnie Frisbee in the 2023 film Jesus Revolution and in the soon-to-be-released Heart of a Servant. He is also a voice artist and a sought-after public speaker, particularly on the Catholic Conference circuit.

It's Wednesday, March 5th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Chinese Communists refer to Christianity as a cult China celebrated its continued persecution of Christianity, calling it a cult organization. State-owned media platforms said, “China's public security authorities intensified efforts to dismantle cult organizations in 2024. They have worked to curb the growth and spread of cult organizations, mitigating potential threats to national political security and maintaining social stability.”  The Chinese Communist Party treats religious freedom as a threat to the government. International Christian Concern notes home churches are “often raided and their members arrested on charges of working against the interests of the state.” British Christian teacher fired for opposing transgenderism Yesterday, a tribunal in the United Kingdom began hearing the case of a Christian teacher who was fired for opposing transgenderism. The teacher, identified as Hannah, is suing the Nottinghamshire County Council which runs the school she worked at. She accuses the school of dismissing her for exposing its “trans affirming” policy.  Ahead of the hearing, Hannah said, “I was informed by my conscience as a Christian to live right before my God and also by the body of evidence I had researched which informed me clearly that social transitioning young children is harmful.” Trump pauses military aid to Ukraine In the United States, the Trump administration is planning to pause military aid to Ukraine. This follows a heated meeting between President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy last Friday.  The U.S. has sent over $180 billion in aid to Ukraine since Russia invaded it in 2022. A White House official told Fox News, “President Trump has been clear that he is focused on peace. We need our partners to be committed to that goal as well. We are pausing and reviewing our aid to ensure that it is contributing to a solution.” English becomes official language of U.S.A. President Trump signed an executive order on Saturday to make English the official language of the United States. The order revokes a mandate from former President Bill Clinton. That mandate required the government to provide language assistance for its documents and services for non-English speakers.  It's the first time the federal government has recognized an official language. Trump's order noted it is “long past time that English is declared as the official language of the United States.  A nationally designated language is at the core of a unified and cohesive society, and the United States is strengthened by a citizenry that can freely exchange ideas in one shared language.”  Homeschooling could be restricted in several states The Home School Legal Defense Association warns that states may be considering bills to restrict homeschool freedom this year. The Coalition for Responsible Home Education introduced a model piece of legislation called the “Make Homeschool Safe Act.” However, the deceptively titled act would only bring more state control over homeschooling. The Home School Legal Defense Association noted, “It is an all-out attack on homeschool liberty from beginning to end.” The group encouraged homeschool advocates to pray and get to know their state legislators. In 1 Timothy 2:2, the Apostle Paul tells us to pray for those in authority “that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence.” “House of David” is visually stunning and spiritually rich And finally, with strong cinematography, solid performances and a focus on biblical accuracy, Prime Video's “House of David” is an ambitious mix of drama and historical storytelling, capturing the fall of King Saul and the simultaneous rise of David with the scope of “The Lord of the Rings” and the character depth of “The Chosen,” reports The Christian Post. From Jon Gunn and Jon Erwin (who previously teamed up for “Jesus Revolution,” "I Can Only Imagine" and “The Case for Christ”), the first season, which premiered on Prime this week, follows David's early years: His journey from shepherd to warrior and court musician, culminating in his battle against the giant Goliath.  In 1 Samuel 17:26, young David asked a question about Goliath: “Who is this uncircumcised Philistine that he should defy the armies of the living God?” Rather than simply retelling well-known events, “House of David” focuses on the personal struggles of its characters, making them relatable and human (even Goliath!), a technique that helped propel “The Chosen,” also recently acquired by Amazon, to a worldwide phenomenon.  Close And that's The Worldview on this Wednesday, March 5th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Subscribe by Amazon Music or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.

Whether we consider ourselves Christian or not, the Jesus movement is the most disruptive, influential and enduring revolution in history. Even critiques of Christianity turn out to be thoroughly Christian critiques. What does that mean for a culture that considers itself to have moved on from institutional Christianity? And what opportunities does the church have to proclaim Christ in a post-Christian culture?Please note that the ideas expressed in this lecture do not necessarily represent the views of L'Abri Fellowship.For more resources, visit the L'Abri Ideas Library at labriideaslibrary.org. The library contains over two thousand lectures and discussions that explore questions about the reality and relevance of Christianity.

Terry Prayed for God to Heal his Church. God Answered with an Invitation to Heal his Heart. Have you ever prayed for something in your life and God answers in a completely different way? Pastor Terry Bone was praying for all the problems of the church when God answered with a vision that pointed to all the problems in his heart! Our show today is about the unexpected journey God takes us on when we begin listening for the Spirit's voice. This was the experience of our guest, Terry Bone. His God-conversations led to him to receive healing for some of the painful experiences from his childhood to a place of freedom. This has to be one of my favourite God conversations on our show - partly because Terry shares so honestly and openly from his own experience! Terry is from Ontario, Canada and after 20 years pastoring, now has a ministry as a “transition pastor” and consultant for churches across the country. He has authored two books and is involved in overseas missions. He has a passion for the Holy Spirit and even gives a plug for my book! You are going to love this conversation and I know it's going to challenge you to allow God to speak into your own heart. In our conversation, you'll hear about: Terry's God story, coming from a nominal church background and the party scene, to the days of the Jesus Revolution where Terry was drawn to God by the idea of a personal relationship with God rather than the empty religion he had previously known. How the Holy Spirit spoke to Terry to lead him on a journey of emotional healing. Terry realised that hearing God's voice was not just about trying to find direction and guidance: “I was driven, focussed on performance - a Type A personality. So for me, hearing God was always about trying to find direction rather than the “search me O God and know my anxious thoughts” prayer. I didn't want to go there but I got cornered." Terry's testimony of praying for his church that was fraught with problems - a huge debt, dwindling numbers, an empty building and a board in conflict, and the vision God gave me in response.  “I saw the roof of a church replaced by a stain glass dome. One of the panels had my name in it. As the picture zoomed in, I heard the words, 'that's the church you're trying to build.'” Terry's experience with the Holy Spirit as counsellor, setting him free from fear and how his ministry completely changed as a result. Terry's journey to freedom effectively led to healing of many others in his church! Today his ministry involves guiding others through the same process as they open their hearts to God. How could I live and teach without seeing this? It's like a conversion experience. The Holy Spirit is a genius. God knows exactly what path to take us on! Terry's reflections on our the nature of our relationship with God and the reward that comes as we continue to listen and respond to God's voice. To just want God's voice for guidance, that's not friendship. When God becomes our friend, the guidance is easy. Subscribe to God Conversations with Tania Harris and never miss an episode! About Terry Bone Terry was radically saved as a teenager during the ‘The Jesus Revolution' of the 19070's in North America. For 18 years he served two churches in various pastoral roles. Since 2003, Terry transitioned to full time itinerant ministry helping leaders succeed in their calling with a focus upon spiritual and emotional health. Terry's ministry extends beyond Canada to several countries overseas. Terry has also served as a Transition Pastor and consultant for many churches. Terry has authored two books, The Family Blessing Guidebook and The Great Exchange. www.exchangezone.ca Terry and his wife Melissa have lived in the Niagara region of Ontario for more than thirty years. They have three children and eight grandchildren (so far).

Discovering and fulfilling one's destiny is a central theme in this enlightening podcast episode featuring host Glenn Blakeney and guest Dr. Michael Brodeur. They delve into the significance of understanding individual destinies as part of the broader body of Christ, emphasizing that each person has a unique role that contributes to God's purposes on earth. Dr. Brodeur shares his journey from a tumultuous upbringing to a life dedicated to ministry, highlighting the importance of coaching and empowering others to step into their God-given callings. The conversation explores the need for churches to transition from merely delegating tasks to actively developing their members, fostering a culture where every believer engages in meaningful ministry. As they discuss practical tools and strategies for helping individuals discover their gifts, passions, and dreams, the episode serves as a powerful reminder of the transformative potential within each person to impact their communities and beyond.The podcast offers an enriching dialogue between Glenn Blakeney and Dr. Michael Brodeur, focusing on the transformative concept of destiny within the Christian faith. Dr. Brodeur's compelling narrative begins with his unconventional background and how his encounter with Jesus during the Jesus Revolution shaped his life's mission to help others discover their calling. The episode emphasizes the theological underpinnings of destiny, exploring how God's original mandate for humanity in Genesis sets the stage for understanding individual and collective purpose. Dr. Brodeur highlights that destiny is not merely a personal journey but a communal endeavor, intricately tied to the body of Christ, where each member plays a unique role.Throughout the conversation, the hosts dive into the practical implications of living out one's destiny. They discuss the critical role of church leaders in fostering environments that empower congregants to explore and live out their gifts and callings. Dr. Brodeur advocates for churches to transition from a traditional model of passive attendance to a more dynamic approach, where every member is encouraged to contribute actively. This shift is framed as essential for fostering spiritual growth and achieving the mission of the church in a world that desperately needs to see the love and authority of Christ manifested through His people.The episode also introduces tools like the Journey Guide, designed to aid individuals in their quest for purpose by guiding them through a process of self-exploration and discovery. This resource is positioned as a means to help believers align their personal aspirations with the divine calling on their lives, encouraging a holistic approach to understanding and fulfilling destiny. As the discussion wraps up, listeners are invited to reflect on their unique roles within the church and to take proactive steps towards living out their God-given purposes, ultimately contributing to the growth and health of the body of Christ.Takeaways: The importance of understanding and fulfilling one's destiny is emphasized throughout the episode. Every believer has a unique calling that contributes to the body of Christ's purpose. Leaders must empower their followers to discover their God-given gifts and callings. The podcast addresses the need for churches to transition from delegation to development. Destiny is not just about individual pursuits but involves community and collective purpose. The journey to discovering one's destiny often requires mentorship and intentional guidance. Links referenced in this episode:kingdomreformation.orgdestinyfinder.com

David Hazell was raised in a religious home, but his relationship with Jesus truly began in the Jesus Revolution in the 1970s. With a mindset of radical obedience, David felt called into an adventure with God and moved his family to Siberia to help with Bible translation. During his time on the mission field, he was awakened to the power of business to fuel the work being done.   Since then, David has launched many successful businesses, generating millions to fuel gospel work around the world, all while continuing to live in a modest mobile home with his wife. David has much to share on obeying the voice of the Spirit, wisdom in stewarding God's money, and the importance of walking out your unique calling.   Major Topics Include: David's story of redemption and calling How he went from Bible translation into the business world A mindset of whole-life stewardship Practice obeying the Spirit's voice by responding to little nudges Spirit-led investing with God's money Stories from the mission field of using businesses to reach people with the gospel QUOTES TO REMEMBER “When we start to see God's mercy and His love, we want to be with Him every day.” “We set our lives up to give more than 50% away, even before we knew we could.” “When you give your life to Christ, you're giving Him all aspects of your life, and you become a steward of everything you have.” “Nothing we own, nothing we have, nothing that belongs to us doesn't belong to God.” LINKS FROM THE SHOW Wild at Heart by John Eldridge Wycliffe Bible Translators (see our interview with CEO John Chesnut) My Father's World The Finish Line Community Facebook Group The Finish Line Community LinkedIn Group BIBLE REFERENCES FROM THE SHOW Ephesians 2:10 | His Workmanship   For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.

Dr. Jordan B. Peterson sits down with the senior pastor of the Harvest Christian Fellowship, Greg Laurie. They discuss the true story behind the hit film “The Jesus Revolution,” Laurie's relationship with hippie-preacher and counter-culture icon Lonnie Frisbee, how he found faith in the most unlikely of places, and the past 50 years of building his world-renowned ministry. Greg Laurie is the senior pastor of Harvest Christian Fellowship with campuses in California and Hawaii. He began his pastoral ministry at the age of 19 by leading a Bible study of 30 people. Since then, God has transformed that small group into a church of some 15,000 people. Today, Harvest is one of the largest churches in America and consistently ranks among the most influential churches in the country. In 1990, Laurie began holding large-scale public evangelistic events called Harvest Crusades. Since that time, more than 9.8 million people have participated in these events in person or online around the United States. In 2012, Laurie launched Harvest America, a nationwide event using the internet to simulcast live HD video to thousands of locations across the country. With an unprecedented 306,000 Americans in live attendance, Harvest America ranks among the largest presentations of the gospel in United States history. Harvest Crusades have also been held internationally in Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. More importantly, some 531,889 people have made professions of faith through these outreaches. In 2020 and in partnership with Kingdom Story Company, Laurie premiered his first-ever cinematic crusade, “A Rush of Hope,” viewed by over 2 million people in its opening weekend. Laurie is the featured speaker of the nationally syndicated radio program, A New Beginning, which is broadcast on more than 1,200 radio outlets around the world. Laurie's weekly television program, “Harvest + Greg Laurie,” is carried on major TV networks such as Lifetime, Fox Business, Newsmax, Daystar, KCAL 9 Los Angeles, and the Trinity Broadcasting Network. This episode was filmed on November 4th, 2024  | Links | For Greg Laurie: On X https://x.com/greglaurie?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor On Instagram https://www.instagram.com/greglaurie/?hl=en On YouTube https://www.youtube.com/greglaurie
