5.0 out of 5 stars From someone who was there during it all..., April 26, 2004

This review is from: The Jesus People Movement: An Annotated Bibliography and General Resource (Bibliographies & Indexes in Religious Studies) (Hardcover)

I leafed thorugh this work and really started to weep because it really brought some great feelings back. This was such a great time to be a Christian. I grew up at Calvary Chapel, and really appreciated the faith that began way back when... so, anything that tells about that time, I am all for it. God bless those who perservered from 30 years ago and are still walking with the Lord.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fascinating Journey, February 26, 2000

Jon Trott - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Jesus People Movement: An Annotated Bibliography and General Resource (Bibliographies & Indexes in Religious Studies) (Hardcover)

As a current member of one ministry which came from the Jesus movement era, and as someone who observed the author's careful attempts at documenting that time, I can heartily recommend this book as an invaluable resource for both historians and those who merely "want to know how it was." The revival was messy, painful, glorious, and ultimately transforming for the American Church and beyond. "The Jesus Movement" captures both the sadness and the joy, following God's move through very frail and human vessels. Most highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Quite the compendium of factoids!!, April 26, 2004

Wow!!

This thing really has a lot of citations in it, stuff I didn't even know was going on during that time... and I was there for it! Well, for some of it, anyway. Great discography section. Love those tunes from Larry Norman and the Love Song band. This brought back some great memories. Can't wait until he actually puts together a written work. I emailed him a couple of times and he says he is taking his time working on it. Can't wait!
