Why the Harvest Crusade Will Require Tickets This Year
Jun 4, 2026
On November 5 and 6, Southern California saw two nights of incredible revival at the SoCal Harvest. The work of the Holy Spirit was palpable as Angel Stadium was filled with over 51,000 people for worship alongside Newsboys, Crowder, Jeremy Camp, Phil Wickham, and Andy Mineo. As evidence, by the end of the weekend, 8,667 people responded when invited by Pastor Greg Laurie to commit or recommit their lives to Christ.
With translation services available in real-time, we saw people from all backgrounds and walks of life in attendance and finding salvation and forgiveness through the gospel. More than 600 radio outlets and social media pages across the nation partnered with Harvest to broadcast the Crusade over the air and digitally. In total, over 161,000 people from around the world joined us for the video stream over the weekend.
Praying for Another Jesus Revolution
A highlight of this year’s SoCal Harvest was when Pastor Greg brought actor Jonathan Roumie (The Chosen, Jesus Revolution) and producer Jon Erwin (Erwin Brothers, Kingdom Story) on stage for exclusive interviews. Both men shared their testimonies and shed light on where the passion for their work comes from: God.
With the theme of “Jesus Revolution,” this year’s event highlighted exclusive clips of the Kingdom Story and Lionsgate film, Jesus Revolution, depicting the spiritual revival of the 1960s and ‘70s. Greg Laurie presented messages incorporating his story of coming to faith in Jesus.
The work is not over yet! We’ll continue to see how lives are changed in the aftermath of this amazing event. There will be follow-up for the thousands of professions of faith that will be conducted through Harvest Church and our many great partner ministries throughout Southern California.
Pastor Greg concluded with this remark, “My hope tonight is not in politicians or world leaders. It’s not in technology, money, or possessions. It’s not even in religion. . . What we are all looking for is not something you hold in your hand. It’s something that happens in your heart in a relationship with God through Jesus Christ.”

The Jesus Movement began during a chaotic moment in American history, when thousands of young people searching for truth encountered the life-changing message of the gospel. In Jesus Revolution, Greg Laurie shares the compelling story behind this spiritual awakening—including his own transformation as a teenager coming to faith in Christ.
This book takes readers behind the scenes of a movement that changed lives through the power of God’s Word and the hope of Jesus. It’s a timely reminder that God still works through ordinary people to accomplish extraordinary things.
When you give to Harvest Ministries this month, we’ll send you Jesus Revolution as our thank-you. And if your gift is $50 or more, we’ll also send you the Jesus Revolution movie on DVD—an inspiring way to enjoy and share this powerful story of revival.
