59:55 time mark - and I was one of those conversions saved from the RC religion, praise God. Almost ran away to the Lord's House in HB at 16 in 1973 when my dad found out I was sneaking to Calvary because the violence increased. Can't wait to hug 'Papa' Chuck in Heaven - AND Chuck & Nancy Missler - in Heaven. What Papa Chuck did through him following the Lord Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit of God helped save millions of us hurting, lost teens. PRAISE THE LORD - MARANATHA
Was there....my husband saved 1970...Lonnie Frisbee. And when he met me...took me to church with him. We also went to Dr. Walter Martin's Bible class at Melodyland. We became good friends of apologetic researchers for Dr. Martin, Bob and Gretchen Passantino...about a 30yr friendship. With Jesus now...Such a wonderful time. Learning, growing in the Word...we had Keith Green and later visited John Wimber's church...Vineyard...worship. we found a home church as we began a family.
@Cindy Pratt. Our Christian walks parallel one another! My Late husband and I were saved at a denominational church. After my being touched supernaturally by the Lord and healed of a heart condition, I was told that I shouldn't mention my healing to anyone in the congregation! My husband and I soon began attending Big Calvary. We also attended Dr. walter Martin's class at Melodyland, and later at Newport Mesa and, then, The Vineyard in Anaheim. Those definitely were beautiful, memorable days in our Christian walk! We were so privileged to have been a part of those early dynamic days of the "Jesus Revolution!" 🙌💕😊
Got saved in’74 and immediately went to Melodyland and met Ray Shelton and his wife who taught me theology and Greek -thanks Edith! Listened to Dr Martin and others at the School of theology there. Remember they were also on KYMS radio on Saturday nights...
Love the summer of 76 and still listens to the Christian songs that captured my heart as a new believer that year. Thank you for the Jesus Movement, Lord. You changed my life. Love from Norway. ❤️
Praise God! This Is So Very Exciting to remember, that After I became a Christian, I went to the Christian bookstore, and I found an album, By Chuck Gerard, and His Awesome Band, called the Love Song. And I Loved It! All the Songs, and Music, really Blessed Me, and Ministered to My Heart! So, I was determined to find more Albums, Like Chuck Gerard, and His band. So I went back to the Book store, and found One of Keith Greens Albums. And I Loved it! All of the Music, and All of the songs, and Lyrics, God Used, to Speak, and Minister to My Heart. Through these Two Albums, of Chuck Gerard, and Keith Green, I became So Much closer to God! And I grew Much stronger as a Christian, and I Became Much More Passionate, and on Fire 🔥 for God, and the Bible, More than Ever Before! Praise God! I was So Very Happy, and So Very Blessed, and thankful to God, to find, and discover, Music, and Songs, and Lyrics, that Ministered to My Heart, and brought Me, So Much More closer to God, than Ever Before!
Thank you so much for this. This was one of the best commentaries I have heard of what the Lord did in those days. It was truly an exceptional move of the Holy Spirit. We feel very blessed to have been there.
I thank David Guzik for putting together a very informative lesson on the Jesus Movement and Calvary Chapel. I remember when I was very young one of my sisters coming home and complaining about the "Jesus Freaks." At the time I had been given some basic teachings on Jesus and he seemed alright to me, so I responded, "There is nothing wrong with being a Jesus Freak." My oldest sister responded there was something wrong with them because "they hassle you." This would have been sometime in the early 70's in the San Francisco Bay Area. I eventually visited a Calvary Chapel in Seattle many years after I converted to Christianity. It didn't work out for me for a variety of reasons and I returned to my nondenominational church. One of the big turn offs for me was that they charged a nominal $2 to attend Bible studies. The teacher did not make a big deal of this, but it still bothered me. You should not require money to be instructed in the Bible, a freewill offering to pay for the costs of the materials is alright in my view, but not required tuition. Recently I read much of David Guzik’s commentary on Genesis so I was attracted to this video. While Guzek has no formal Bible College or seminary education, he does have a bachelor’s degree from U.C. Santa Barbara, reads a lot of commentaries, and has outstanding discernment, hence the commentary was quite good. I found this video quite good as well. I do not think I will ever be a part of the Calvary Chapel movement, I have found a good church home with the Southern Baptists, but I do appreciate that they are open to those who have countercultural attire and the like. It is good to have an option like Calvary Chapel which, although not for me, is for some people. I recently visited Southern Baptist Theological Seminary and was impressed with how the worship band rocked! This is an influence of the Jesus movement and Calvary Chapel, I doubt such a thing would be allowed decades ago. '
Wow! Awesome, that was very enlightening and encouraging. Pastor Dave thank you for all your discipleship and love you gave to me and still do via internet! I have been truly blessed by your ministry. Love you brother. God bless! 😁👍
I thoroughly enjoyed your more detached presentation on this, I imagine you did it some time ago, as you appear quite a bit younger, nice to remember those times as we get older.
I was there too. I was a little girl who went to church with Ed and Judy Smith, who were new neighbors. I remember coming home from Calvary and asking my mom why I had to get dressed up to go to church when the hippies came dirty and without shoes. Mom said, I don’t care what other people do but we get dressed up for church. Eventually, my family started attending Calgary as it out grew the small chapel, a circus tent on a bean field across the street from the new/current church building. The tent was hot and dirty and I remember music and people speaking in tongues. As a young kid I didn’t understand what was going on. We attended Calvary until I was in 4 th grade, 1973. I asked my Mom why we left and she said, you and your sister hated Sunday School. As an adult I had to laugh as my sister and I were the only ones in our class and we didn’t get along, so no wonder we didn’t like it. Mom found a church nearby by that I attended 1990.
I grew up in a cult in Calif and it greatly affected my family, the book that helped me the most to gain clarity is "The Mind of the Bible Believer" by Edmund Cohen who got 'saved' at a Calvary Chapel in CA and describes his brainwashing and eventual recovery..
I lived in The Lords House a CCCM house in the 70s we gave all our money and I NEVER lived as HAPPY as I was In The Lods House its was Chuck that sent me there and I will always love him for that .If you were not a Part of the ealry Calvery Chapel from the TENT to the building you REALLLY MISSSED Someting !!LOL it like living in the First Century Church we lovfed each other and I dont see much of that today
Mixed feelings here about CC. But we should all be thankful that God doesn't always restrict Himself to our ways. Just try to be sure it's God at work.
CC is a very problematic group of churches. It astounds me how all these older folks fail to miss the questionable and out right unbiblical practices of CC and the Jesus Movements. The is so much blindless among the older generations despite them attending churches for decades.
The Spirit of God started moving in mainline churches in the 50's. David Wilkerson prayed over Dennis Bennet an Episcopal priest from LA county. People started being healed in his services. Bishop upset and sent to Seattle, Washington area where God moved strongly. One of many such churches impacted. Imploded when Pentecostal leaders took control and used the term "charismatic" to make it acceptable. Now few believe the Holy Spirit is real!
The Moses model is not the model of a New Testament church; it wasn't when Chuck Smith was alive and it isn't now after numerous Calvary Chapels being reproduced modeled on the Costa Mesa congregation.
there wer e some who came to the tent to take survays and pick our brains BUT they were asked to leave I was part of a study I agreeed to at the lords house by some PHD lol
CC is such a foolish and undiscerning movement. I attended a CC for 3 years, but it became clear by God's grace that CC has many unbiblical traditions.

Sorry you lost me at Lonnie Frisbee and John Wimber.
I am very dissapointed in the lack of leadership and discernment from the older generations. God has given so few older folks wisdom.
you can google them. Lonnie is a main character in the recent movie "Jesus Revolution" and John Wimber started the Vineyard churches.@@deej77

What are your favorite Jesus Music bands/singers?

Only 60 comments? This history is riveting- I. Was there in 1970, but there is still stuff I didn’t know.
Thank you for your kind words and support! Blessings in His name.
Chuck or Romaine NEVER told us to stop using drugs ,,we just did because we found something Better
They should have.
@@tomhitchcock8195 that would have ENDED the Love for Jesus and we ALL woulld have never went there

We always need to try to discern that it is God's work, and not man's. Agreed!

@@7seednew Kindly explain.
@7seednew I mostly agree with the spirit of your post, if not in every every factual aspect.
@@7seednew Patronization was not a factor. Unwarranted reactions are not helpful and tend to invoke a dampening of academic inquiry.
We saw Hal Lindsey a few times too.
there were ONLY 5 people at my wedeing Chuck and Romaine were 2 of them lol
there wer e some who came to the tent to take survays and pick our brains BUT they were asked to leave I was part of a study I agreeed to at the lords house by some PHD lol
God is about to reveal the truth about this church.
Has God revealed it yet?
Unqualified to minister.
How does the love of God Feel?
How does one know
Scripture
Worst presentation ever on the Jesus Revolution, Calvary, Lonnie ect.
CC is such a foolish and undiscerning movement. I attended a CC for 3 years, but it became clear by God's grace that CC has many unbiblical traditions.
Sounded good to me.
A revival of ignorance and emotional bonding
A God sent revival that brought millions to salvation.
