An intimate look at movie star Steve McQueen's reckless life of fast cars, women, and drugs all the way up to his dramatic life-change and terminal cancer diagnosis.Join Greg Laurie as he takes a cross-country drive in his 1968 Highland Green Ford Mustang 390 GT through the canyons of Malibu, the alleys of Hollywood, the wide and open roads of the Midwest, and the streets of New York as he traces the woolly geography of actor Steve McQueen's life, relationships, career, and spiritual journey. This iconic muscle car was the vehicle McQueen drove in his most raucous and enduring film, Bullitt. In the 1960s, McQueen was, according to box office receipts, the biggest movie star of his generation and one of the coolest men to ever walk the planet. Greg Laurie was a teen at the time and an ardent fan of "The King of Cool," first mesmerized by McQueen in 1963's The Great Escape. Like millions of cinema fans, Greg developed a lifelong fascination with the actor. Now he has a chance to tell McQueen's story. McQueen was a complex, contradictory man who lived the same way he drove his motorcycles and cars: fearlessly, ruthlessly, and at top speed. After a lifetime of fast cars, women, and drugs, McQueen took a surprising detour. In this book, Laurie thoughtfully interviews Steve McQueen's friends, co-stars, associates, widow, and pastor to tell of the dramatic life-change for the actor in the spring of 1979--six months before McQueen was diagnosed with terminal cancer. What were the critical steps that led McQueen to make such a life-altering decision? Perhaps more importantly, why is that part of his story so rarely told? This book answers these questions. Greg Laurie will follow the seeds of Christianity that were sown throughout McQueen's improbable life where a Light finally shone into the darkness of his troubled life. These seeds miraculously germinated, allowing McQueen to see that redemption through Jesus Christ is a lasting truth more glittering and real than any magic of the entertainment industry.

NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTUREThe Jesus Movement transformed the church--and it can transform youGod 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.Discover the remarkable true story of the Jesus Movement, an extraordinary time of mass revival, renewal, and reconciliation. Setting intriguing personal stories within the context of one of the most tumultuous times in modern history, Greg Laurie and Ellen Vaughn draw important parallels with our own time of spiritual apathy and overt hostility, offering a new vision for the next generation of unlikely believers--and hope for the next great American revival.Because God can always bring a new Jesus Revolution.

Billy Graham Was the World’s Best-Known Evangelist—Loved and Admired by Millions. But Very Few Knew Him Personally. Pastor and bestselling author Greg Laurie was one of those fortunate few, blessed with an insider’s view of Billy Graham’s world for more than two decades.With the same painstaking research and eye for detail that distinguishes his previous biographies, Steve McQueen: Salvation of an American Icon and Johnny Cash: The Redemption of an American Icon, Laurie now turns to the life of his beloved mentor, offering the intimate perspective of a disciple and friend.As a strapping North Carolina farm boy, Graham surrendered his life to Jesus at a camp meeting led by a blustery itinerant preacher, but he never lost the mischievous twinkle in his eye or his fun-loving air.Laurie sheds light on Graham’s lesser-known struggles—such as a broken heart before he met the love of his life and a crisis of faith from which he emerged stronger than ever. From the evangelist’s private challenges and public successes to his disappointments and joys, Billy Graham: The Man I Knew provides a vivid portrait of one of history’s most remarkable Christian lives.

Join Greg Laurie, pastor and bestselling author of Steve McQueen: The Salvation of an American Icon, as he takes you on a personal journey into the life and legend of Johnny Cash.At the peak of his career, Cash had done it all—living the ultimate rags-to-riches story of growing up on a cotton farm in the Deep South to becoming a Nashville and Hollywood sensation, singing alongside heroes like Elvis Presley and performing for several American presidents.But through all of this, Cash was troubled. By the time he released the iconic Man in Black album in 1971, the middle-aged icon was broken down, hollow-eyed, and wrung out.In his search for peace, Cash became embroiled in controversy. He was arrested five times in seven years. His drug- and alcohol-induced escapades led to car accidents and a forest fire that devastated 508 acres. His time was divided between Jesus and jail, gospel tunes and the “Cocaine Blues.”But by the end of his life, Cash was speaking openly about his “unshakeable faith.” What caused the superstar to turn from his conflicting passions to embrace a life in Christ?Johnny Cash: The Redemption of an American Icon dives deep into the singer’s inner demons, triumphs, and gradual return to faith. Laurie interviews Cash’s family, friends, and business associates to reveal how the singer’s true success came through finding the only Person whose star was bigger than his own.

Jesusrörelsen förändrade kyrkan – och den kan förändra dig Gud har alltid varit passionerad när det kommer till att förvandla osannolika människor till sina mest hängivna anhängare. Prostituerade och hedningar, skatteindrivare och bedragare, de pompösa och de pampiga – ju mer osannolika, desto mer tycktes det behaga Gud att visa sin makt, styrka och barmhärtighet genom dem. Under 1960- och 1970-talen var USA fullt av många sådana karaktärer – unga män och kvinnor som hade förkastat den konventionella religionen i sina föräldrars generation, som inte följde konventionella regler och som inte passade in. Deras längtan efter något mer blev startskottet för 1900-talets största andliga uppvaknande. Upptäck den anmärkningsvärda sanna historien om Jesusrörelsen, en exceptionell tid av folkväckelse, förnyelse och försoning. Greg Laurie och Ellen Vaughn skildrar spännande personliga berättelser under en av de mest omvälvande tiderna i modern historia och drar viktiga paralleller till vår egen tid som präglas av andlig apati och öppen fientlighet mot kristen tro. Författarna ger hopp om en ny folkväckelse för nästa generation osannolika troende. För Gud kan alltid skapa en ny Jesusrevolution. SAGT OM BOKEN “På 1960-talet, när jag först mötte Jesus, var det något som pågick för fullt i Kalifornien. Gud var åfärde, och även jag skulle svepas med av den mäktiga Andeutgjutelse som svämmade över i hjärtat på miljontals unga runt om i landet. Jag hörde berättelser om hur Gud räddade vilsekomna tonåringar genom Jesusfolket och utlöste en väckelse, som skakade om både USA och andra länder. Det är därför som Gregs och Ellens nya bok, Jesusrevolutionen, är så viktig och så nödvändig – den berättar om de personer och händelser som gjorde epoken så unik. Jag är säker på att även du kommer att inspireras och uppmuntras av denna rapport om en av den kristna historiens märkligaste väckelser.” Joni Eareckson Tada Joni and Friends, International Disability Center “På 1960- och 1970-talen gjorde Gud något unikt. Hans Ande svepte över Amerika och förvandlade oräkneliga människors liv. I sin nya bok, Jesusrevolutionen, tar sig pastor Greg Laurie och Ellen Vaughn en närmare titt på denna otroliga våg av evangelisation och väckelse. Boken är fängslande, full av nåd och med ett tydligt fokus på Bibeln. Vad den framför allt visar är att Gud kan använda sig av vanliga människor för att göra högst ovanliga saker.” Craig Groeschel pastor och bästsäljande författare
