Episode 77: The Jesus Revolution Movie

Today we hear from movie producer, Daryl Lefever, as he chats about his own journey into the adventure of film-making, and highlights the themes from “Jesus Revolution”, coming to theaters near you starting February 24th. This movie is an inspirational true story of a hippie revolution in the 70’s – known as the greatest spiritual awakening in American history! Real people, real struggles, and a story from the past that we can apply to our now. Listen in to hear why Daryl says we can have hope after watching this film…
