![]() ![]() We have to find ourselves living as Jesus did. "We have to live authentically as Christians in a world that is watching and is very suspicious and as dismissed Christianity by in large, as judgmental and uncaring and hyper-political at times. We change culture as we live authentically and the Holy Spirit Himself has to invade people's hearts and minds, she declared. ![]() It's not by might, nor by power, nor by an organization, nor by a movie, nor by a program that we change culture. The California native said people cannot bring a move of God, but they can posture themselves in a way that allows God to do what He desires to do in the hearts of others. “What reached me was a radical change in the person who was talking to me was like, 'You have to hear what I'm going to say because this could change your life.'” But can I tell you, that kind of Christianity is not what reached me,” Cathe explained. We go to church on Sunday, and we go out and we live our lives. "Those of us that have been on the inside of church for a number of years, we can grow apathetic, we kind of have our little clique, we have our little group. And we need to return to that again and again and again,” she advised. And if it doesn't impact your joy, if it doesn't impact your compassion, if it doesn't impact your interest in outsiders, then I would question whether or not you're really living in that what we would call first love relationship with Jesus. "I think for us, first of all, we need to be authentically walking with Jesus, living in a real relationship with Him in order for us to communicate that to somebody else. When asked what she advised church leaders to do to reach this generation, the founder and director of Virtue, the women's ministry at Harvest Christian Fellowship, said genuinely living for Christ is what will reach others. It's a love story with Jesus, and it's a love story between Greg and myself, and what God did in our lives,” Cathe declared. “Jesus Revolution” will now reach many others with a message of revival on the big screen. The revival has now spread to other campuses, churches and schools across the United States. Earlier this month, at Asbury University, a small Christian college in Wilmore, Kentucky, a small chapel service turned into a continuous prayer and worship gathering where students and people worldwide have been praising and worshipping Jesus around the clock. The film happens to be coming out at a time when her prayers are being answered. It was a spontaneous intervention, I believe, of the Holy Spirit into a generation that was lost and searching.”Ĭathe has been praying to see that kind of revival breakthrough for subsequent generations. It was not organized by a particular church. It was not orchestrated by a particular parachurch group. "It's remarkable because it shows what God can do when He breaks through to a generation,” Cathe explained. But after meeting Lonnie Frisbee, a charismatic hippie street preacher, this group finds themselves at the church of Pastor Chuck Smith which sparked this generation's Jesus movement.

Erwin and Jon Gunn wrote the script after they decided to explore Greg and Cathe's love story with God and each other as a major premise of the film. The Kingdom Story film, in collaboration with Lionsgate, was directed by filmmakers Jon Erwin (“I Can Only Imagine”) and Brent McCorkle and produced by Kevin Downes. “Jesus Revolution,” which is now showing in theaters nationwide, was inspired by the true story of the spiritual awakening that swept Southern California in the late 1960s and early 1970s. In the beginning stages, when John Irwin was interviewing Greg and myself, he just wanted to know people who lived through this revival.” “I will be totally honest with you, I was a little terrified by the idea. "Here we are 50 years later to have our young lives depicted in a major motion picture like this is really quite surprising for me,” Cathe told The Christian Post in a video interview. The love story of Pastor Greg Laurie and his wife, Cathe, is depicted in the new film “Jesus Revolution,” and now, 50 years later, Cathe is reflecting on the long-lasting love that she encountered with both Jesus and her husband back during the revival of the 1970s.
