The Christian’s
secret to a consistent life is for Christ to live His life through us: “I have
been crucified with Christ: and I myself no longer live, but Christ lives in
me. And the real life I now have within this body is a result of my trusting in
the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me” (Galatians 2:20)...Explore

Winner of the 2014 Christianity
Today Book of the Year. The Jesus People movement was a unique
combination of the hippie counterculture and evangelical Christianity. It first
appeared in the famed "Summer of Love" of 1967, in San Francisco's
Haight-Ashbury district, and spread like wildfire in Southern California and
beyond, to cities like Seattle, Atlanta, and Milwaukee. In 1971 the growing
movement found its way into the national media spotlight and gained momentum,
attracting a huge new following among evangelical church youth, who
enthusiastically adopted the Jesus People persona as their own. Within a few
years, however, the movement disappeared and was largely forgotten by everyone
but those who had filled its ranks.
God's Forever Family argues that the Jesus People movement was one of the most important American religious movements of the second half of the 20th-century. Not only do such new and burgeoning evangelical groups as Calvary Chapel and the Vineyard trace back to the Jesus People, but the movement paved the way for the huge Contemporary Christian Music industry and the rise of "Praise Music" in the nation's churches. More significantly, it revolutionized evangelicals' relationship with youth and popular culture. Larry Eskridge makes the case that the Jesus People movement not only helped create a resurgent evangelicalism but must be considered one of the formative powers that shaped American youth in the late 1960s and 1970s....Order Your Copy
