Lost Boy The Next Chapter

There are a lot of spiritual memoirs out there, but you've never seen one like this. Like many who came of age in the 1960s, Greg Laurie was on a search for the meaning of life. Born out of wedlock to an alcoholic mother who married seven times, Greg started drinking, partying, and taking drugs to escape the dysfunction of his family. But his life was suddenly changed when he encountered a group of young Christians on his high school campus in Newport Beach, California. Greg has since authored more than 35 books, started what became one of the first mega-churches in the United States (Harvest Christian Fellowship in Riverside, California) as well as a far-reaching ministry (Harvest Crusades) that today touches many who are searching for meaning, just as he once was. In this film, Greg opens a window on his life and shares about his uncertainty, disappointments,and growth. He remembers the beginnings of a ministry that has touched millions of people and relives the ups, downs, sudden drops, and blind corners and he invites you along for the ride!

Dove Review

Here is the life story of Greg Laurie, a fascinating life which began with Greg being raised by a mother who drank a lot and divorced several men and remarried. The documentary reveals a young Greg in search of fulfillment and he finds it in the person of Jesus Christ. This testimony is particularly inspiring as Greg formerly experimented with drugs and looked into Eastern mysticism. Today he is married and a father and holds evangelistic meetings in which he leads others to Christ.

There is talk in the documentary of drugs and abuse and we are recommending this DVD for ages twelve plus although many parents will be comfortable with their mature children under this age viewing the DVD. It is an inspiring story about a remarkable change in a man’s life. We are pleased to award this DVD five Doves, our highest rating.
