Harvest Christian Fellowship Church:
It was founded in 1973 by Greg Laurie . Laurie has been the senior pastor since that time. Harvest is a megachurch with a congregation of 15,000 and growing. The eighth largest church in America and third largest in California, with satellite campuses in Eastvale (Corona, California) and Woodcrest (Riverside, California) and a dedicated campus in Orange County (Irvine, California). As well as being the launching pad for the International Harvest Crusades, Harvest is involved in other various internal and external ministries.
Harvest Crusades
In 1990, Greg Laurie started holding his first public evangelistic event which would soon be called the Harvest Crusades. Since the first Crusade it has been estimated that nearly 5.5 million people have attended in stadiums, amphitheaters, and like venues.
I went to the Harvest Crusade in Anaheim Stadium, CA the past 2 years. Both times, there was a pyramid shaped screen on stage. (Pic related) It really bothered me knowing what I do about their need for symbolism.
Also, if you’ve heard Laurie speak, there is a certain femininity or swoosh to his voice. But the rest of the event seemed like a wholesome Christian fellowship.
Harvest Founder and Pastor Greg Laurie:
Greg Laurie was born in Long Beach, California. He was raised by a single mother who had seven marriages, often moving to vastly different locations such as New Jersey and Hawaii. Working as a newspaper delivery man for the Daily Pilot in Los Angeles, CA was Greg Laurie's first job. Laurie was not raised in the Christian faith or a church environment. In 1970, when Laurie was 17 years old, he became a devout Christian at Newport Harbor High School under the ministry of evangelist Lonnie Frisbee.
(Lonnie Frisbee was an American Charismatic evangelist and self-described "seeing prophet" in the late 1960s and 1970’s and was a key figure in the Jesus movement.
He maintained a hippie appearance and struggled with homosexuality. Frisbee functioned as an evangelical preacher while also privately socializing as a gay man, before and during his evangelism career. His churches later disowned him because of his active sexual life, removing him first from leadership positions, then ultimately, firing him.)
At the age of 19, Greg Laurie, under the ministry of Calvary Chapel Pastor Chuck Smith, was given the opportunity to lead a Bible study of 30 people. The church that formed from this group, Harvest Christian Fellowship, has grown to become one of the largest churches in the United States. In 2013, Harvest Christian Fellowship celebrated its 40th anniversary. The church has another dedicated campus in Irvine as well as four satellite campuses (Woodcrest, Eastvale, South Corona and Lahaina, Hawaii) with a congregation of approximately 15,000 people, and also houses more than 80 ministries. Harvest recently merged with Kumulani Chapel in Maui, Hawaii, and that church is now called Harvest Kumulani.
Laurie holds two honorary doctorates from Biola University and Azusa Pacific University. He serves on the board of directors for the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association. He is also a chaplain for the Newport Beach Police Department. In 2013, Laurie served as the Honorary Chairman of the National Day of Prayer Task Force.
President Donald Trump selected Pastor Laurie as one of several evangelical church leaders to participate in the National Prayer Service hosted at the Washington National Cathedral following the Presidential Inauguration of 2017.
In 2017, Greg Laurie organized a movement entitled “The Year of Good News.” Multiple church leaders signed the letter he penned to initiate the movement. One of the paragraphs of the letter reads, “In a time of fake news, distracting news, divisive news, disorderly news, and, sometimes, depressing news, we—as Christians and as leaders—want to recommit ourselves to making sure that the Good News of Jesus cuts through it all. We call upon Christians in America to make 2017 "The Year of Good News."
