In today’s episode, Pastor Greg Laurie shares a message titled “The First Jesus Movement” at our Sunday Morning Service for Harvest at Home.
Sermon Notes
We can all agree that our world is a mess right now. The global instability and breakdown of families is a clear indication we are living in the last days; Bible prophecy is being fulfilled right before our eyes. It seems as if every time we turn around there is more wickedness and sin, so what do we do in times as dark as these? We need to pray for divine intervention.
Application
1. Before you can change the world, you must first be changed.
- The disciple’s greatness was not because of who they were as individuals; it was because God put His hand on them.
- Jesus did not call these men who became apostles because they were great; they were great because Jesus called them!
- If you want people to follow Jesus, you must be an example of a follower of Him too.
2. The church had a job to do, and so do we.
- God wants us to be His witnesses too
- We are called to tell people about Jesus everywhere
3. We need to be filled with the Holy Spirit and do what God calls us to do.
- The same power that was poured out on the day of Pentecost is available to us today!!
- Power to speak up for your faith

In thanks for your gift . . .
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.
