Lost Boy

Last Sunday night I sat my family down to watch Lost Boy. It's a 1 hour documentary of Greg Laurie's life. I really liked Greg when I got to hear him speak at a Harvest Crusade Luncheon last summer. I got to hear a little of his testimony at the Crusade and wanted to hear more.

It starts by telling you of his family's background, moving to California to farm. He had a tumultuous childhood, a little similar to mine but much more severe. Then it takes you to high school and when he accepted Christ. It shows him under the pastorship of Chuck Smith of Calvary Chapel and how he started in ministry. There's great footage of the 60's and great music. Then you see his beautiful wife and learn how they got together, then the Harvest Crusades. It's a great, great, story. You can preview it and order it here.

On a sad note, Greg's son Christopher passed away in a car accident July 24th. Please pray for Greg and his family and Christopher's family. You can read Greg's blog and see related video here.
