Pastor Greg Laurie has helped lead tens of thousands of people to the Christian faith, calling his decades in ministry a true “privilege.”
“I can’t believe that God allowed me to do this and to be doing it for 35 years,” Laurie recently told CBN News. “[When] we started these Harvest Crusade [events], never did we think we would be doing them 35 years later, but we are, and they’re going strong, and it’s a whole new generation.”
With so much chaos unfolding in culture, the preacher said he believes recent positive reactions to the Christian faith show there’s a “spiritual hunger” among Generation Z and Millennials.
“They’re searching,” Laurie said. “They’re looking for answers, and I find myself in these crusades being simpler than I’ve ever been. I just feel my job is to make this information accessible and understandable.”
He continued, “It is my belief that most Americans have never [encountered an] accurate, understandable presentation of the Gospel. They’ve heard the word ‘Gospel.’ They’ve heard variations of Gospel preaching, but have they actually just heard the simple Gospel message presented in a way that they can comprehend?”
