Jesus Revolution

From the description: God has always been passionate about turning unlikely people into His most fervent followers. Prostitutes and pagans, tax collectors and tricksters, the pompous and the pious--the more unlikely, the more it seemed to please God to demonstrate His power, might, and mercy through them. America in the 1960s and 1970s was full of many such characters--young men and women who had rejected the conformist religion of their parents' generation, didn't follow conventional rules, and didn't fit in. Their longing for something more set the stage for the greatest spiritual awakening of the twentieth century.

. . . . .

“And yes, like anything involving human beings, the Jesus Movement also had its share of flawed characters. Some were like Samson - mightily blessed by God, but then they fell off His wagon. If their paths are not always worth following, their colourful stories are still worth reading. For even when revival wanes and awakenings lull, God is still at work”
