The Foolish Wise Man | The Empty Promise of Fame

by Harvest on Jul 30, 2025

So many think their happiest life is down the pathway of money, fame and pleasure. If that’s the case, every TV star, movie star, rock star and sports star would be ecstatic. Yet hundreds and hundreds have taken their own lives. We’re going to hear from the man who said, “vanity, vanity, all is vanity.” He was the celebrity of celebrities of his day. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie shows us Solomon’s lesson for the ages about real contentment.

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.
