One of this year's top-grossing faith-affirming films, 'Jesus Revolution,' is available on Netflix in the United States, where a reported 75 million Americans are subscribers.
The film tells the story of the early 1970s evangelical Christian revival that swept the country and had thousands of young adults baptized into the faith. One of them was Greg Laurie, then a confused teen looking for answers in life. He is today pastor of Harvest Christian Fellowship in Riverside, California, where his sermons are aired on radio and television.
“At this moment in time, it’s number five of all Netflix movies,” he said. “That’s pretty significant.” The film arrived earlier this year as a wave of Christian revival erupted across the country. A Feb. 8 prayer meeting at Asbury University in Wilmore, Kentucky, turned into two weeks of non-stop worship sessions, and similar events have been reported elsewhere in the U.S.
Along with its debut on Netflix, “Jesus Revolution” is moving overseas. Mr. Laurie said. The film has opened in theaters in England, Scotland, New Zealand and Australia, and is also playing in Latin America.“It’s made its way all around the world,” he said. “It’s really, really having a great appeal.”
