Here everybody, Greg Laurie here with my friend John Erwin, the director of Jesus Revolution.

0:05.0

Not only the director, but you wrote the screenplay. And now the film is coming out this week.

0:11.1

Tell people why this is important to watch in person, in a theater, as opposed to waiting for it to

0:17.2

stream. I've never worked on a film before where the audience cheers with the movie. I've never

0:23.5

experienced that before. That you laugh, you cry. But another thing happens, ask Christians,

0:28.8

when we champion something together in a moment. It creates what's called fear of missing out.

0:34.3

Fomo. Fomo. And the people that follow after we unify our voice, it's sort of like

0:39.8

battle of Jericho. The last step before the walls Jericho fell down was the people unified

0:44.4

their voice. That's right. And all at once. When we do that, the walls between us and culture fall

0:50.2

down and millions of people end up experiencing the film that would not otherwise if we didn't champion

0:57.1

when it comes out. So we like to say a movie ticket is like your vote. And it really is like an

1:02.4

election. And when we vote together, amazing things happen. Beyond that though, it's a wonderful

1:08.4

experience. It really is. It's a very entertaining film. It's a laugh out loud film. It's a shed

1:14.4

at tear for sure film. But most of all, it's a gospel and few story of redemption. And we're hoping

1:22.4

in praying that all of you will go out and buy at least two tickets, one for you and one for a

1:28.7

non-believer. We talk about films as like setting a volleyball that you can spike. Yeah.

1:33.5

We're just praying that revival would happen again. And what happened in that generation would

1:38.8

happen in this generation. I think we're already seeing signs of it. And so buy your tickets now.

1:44.8

It opens nationwide this weekend. Let's have a strong start because the stronger the film starts,

1:50.6

the longer the film will last. In a theater near you. Get your tickets and we'll see you at the movies.
