## A true story of revival

[JESUS REVOLUTION](https://jesusrevolution.movie/) was based on the real-life revival of the 1960s and ‘70s, featuring Pastor Chuck Smith (Kelsey Grammer), Lonnie Frisbee (Jonathan Roumie), Greg Laurie (Joel Courtney), Cathe Laurie (Anna Grace Barlow), and others. It was a time of great social upheaval; a time in which many American—especially young people—were no longer willing to swallow conventional “churchianity.”

They longed for what was true, real, and transformational, but had been searching in all the wrong places—much like this generation. 

Revival doesn’t have to be a thing of the past, it can be part of our future, *your* future. You won’t find what you’ve been longing for with something, but with someone. It’s time to stop seeking and start finding.
