Jesus Revolution PG-13
“There is an entire generation searching for God.” – Lonnie Frisbee
Based on the remarkable true story of one of the greatest spiritual awakenings in American history. Directors Jon Erwin and Brent McCorkle created a cinematic masterpiece that displays this unforgettable awakening through the lives of people that Jesus saved. A triumphant jewel within the theater, produced by the Lionsgate, on February 24, 2023.
This story starts in the 1970s, with a group of people known as Hippies igniting a movement of people that were looking for something beyond their understanding. Trying to fill their gaping holes of loneliness and confusion with anything that made them feel a sense of liberation. A pastor named Chuck Smith (Kelsey Grammer) took a different perspective amongst these people because of the beautiful mindset of his daughter Janette Smith (played by Ally Ioannides) that encountered a Jesus loving Hippie named Lonnie Frisbee (Jonathan Roumie) journeying on the back roads of town. Their meeting set a raging fire for Jesus in Pastor Smith’s heart, and he opened his Church’s doors to the generation searching for God.
This new beginning brought God to the souls of thousands in Southern California. Real people seeking the Kingdom of God and seeing their salvation in His hands. Thousands of people that were searching for something beyond their understanding, something that was missing from their lives, found Jesus. This astounding and breathtaking take on the true story of Jesus’ Revolution is inspiring awakenings all around the world today.
This miraculous piece produced by Jon Erwin, Josh Walsh, Kevin Downes, Andrew Erwin, Daryl C. Lefever and Jerilyn Esquibel were able to give people faith, hopefulness and trust. This take on the true events of Jesus’ Revolution is encouraging another movement of motivated and gratifying people to spread the word of God to anyone who is seeking or desiring Him. The Jesus Revolution of the 1970s is erupting another movement of great awakening, saving thousands of people who are searching for Christ. This is “an entire generation searching for God.”
