Greg Laurie Believes New Jesus Revolution Underway

Greg Laurie is one of the most famous pastors in America. It was a portion of his life, how he came to Christ, that was the inspiration for the hit movie Jesus Revolution in 2023. Evidently Greg Laurie believes that another of such revolution is underway.

In an article he wrote for Christian Post earlier this month, Greg Laurie pondered the notion of a revival underway amongst the youth.

There’s a new wind blowing across America. It’s a wind of freedom, optimism, hope, and yes, patriotism. What’s even more remarkable is that this movement isn’t just being carried by the older generation — it’s gaining momentum among the young.

I haven’t seen anything like this in decades. The last time I felt such cultural stirring was during the Jesus Movement when an entire generation found hope and transformation through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. That was when I personally came to faith in Christ, and it was the start of a movement that changed countless lives. In fact, a powerful movie was made about it, Jesus Revolution. Could we be on the brink of another Jesus Revolution in America? I pray so — a revival where hearts are turned back to God, lives are transformed, and the very foundation of our nation is restored.

For far too long, we’ve endured constant negativity from pundits and the cultural wrecking ball of woke ideology. Academia, media, and entertainment have worked tirelessly to dismantle the values that built this great nation. This ideology has become a runaway train, barreling through our institutions and preying on our most vulnerable — our children.

Laurie goes on to connect the revival with a reaction to transgenderism. Joining many Christian leaders, Greg Laurie views this as the time to build.

But here’s the good news: things are changing in America, and they’re changing for the better. It’s time to rebuild. Like Nehemiah rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem, we must rise to the challenge and restore the spiritual foundation that has been eroded. Nehemiah faced opposition, ridicule, and even threats, but he pressed on. Why? Because he knew the task was worth it. And so must we.

Laurie concludes by arguing that 2 Chronicles 7:14 is how revival happens.

God has given us a recipe for revival in 2 Chronicles 7:14: “If My people, who are called by My name, will humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and heal their land.”

Taken to be applied to the modern church, we would agree. Evangelical Dark Web has reported on what appears to be a “Bro Revivla” happening as much of it seems to be driven by young men.

  1. “during the Jesus Movement when an entire generation found hope and transformation through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.” So the Boomers all got saved, and did so following the hippie Jesus?

  2. Amen ! We need to remember the promise in Isaiah “When the enemy comes in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord will raise a standard against him” Tremendous respect for Laurie. Jesus Revolution is a great movie !
