You cannot impose faith. You feel it from your heart, and it comes to you in the most beautiful way.
No matter how much proof or explanation you give, you won’t be a believer if you donāt feel it in your heart.
“Jesus Revolution” came out last week.
Not only are the reviews incredible, but the impact has been remarkable.
The movie is based on the true events of the national spiritual awakening that began with a chance encounter.
The “Jesus Movement” originated in a community of teenage hippies in Southern California, then spread across the country.
They called their members “Jesus Freaks” or “Jesus People”.
Though, it didnāt start successfully.
The growth of the movement started when one of the groupās members, Lonnie Frisbee, met Chuck Smith, a pastor who founded the Calvary Chapel movement.
At that time, the pastor was already having problems in his church.
It wasnāt flourishing.
He was lost because he thought he wasnāt an effective pastor and might lose his job.
āHeās a man looking for his own faith and finds it as well. Heās a man whose church is empty and he canāt find traction, and he started to think heās going to get fired from his job as a pastor,ā said Kelsey in an interview with Kelly and Ryan.
Would he find his faith?
Smith met Frisbee, a young hippie who had a different take on faith and life.
Despite having hesitations, the kind pastor opened his church for his new friends, but at first, it wasnāt as successful as he would have thought.
Some of the old members werenāt so open about the fresh point of view of the Jesus Freaks or Jesus People members.
āThen this hippie comes to his life, and he finds new purpose, and he started a movement that is still going,ā the actor added.
While describing it, Kelsey became emotional.
He said he really loved the movie, and after seeing the first cut, even his wife was stunned.
She started crying and told Grammer that it was the best thing he has ever done.
Thatās when Grammer cried.
It was different because it touches not just your heart, but also your soul.
Many of us have felt like this, feeling lost, feeling empty, and even doubtful, but when you find a church that will feed your soul, life changes.
Jesus Revolution originated in the 60s.
Jesus Revolution began in the late 1960s on the West Coast of the United States.
Then, their faith spread across North America and even reached Europe and Central America. The movement eventually lost momentum, so-to-speak in the late 1980s.
It created several sub-groups, however, that spread all over the world.
The name changed, but the faith remained.
When looking for your faith, sometimes, you will face uncertainty in life, self-doubt, and even trials.
However, if you open your heart, if you allow faith in, then you might just find what you are looking for.
Chuck Smith passed away last 2013, but his name and his movement, are still influential up to this day.
See the genuine humility that overtakes Kelsey as he describes the movie in the video below!
