Have you seen ANYTHING in the mainstream media about the Harvest Crusade in Los Angeles Saturday night? Dodger Stadium, capacity 56,000, held 50,000 people. We counted. No, we didn't but we could see the crowd filled the entire stadium except for some sparse bits at the very ends. Many of the people (average age early twenties) were clapping, waving, shouting, hugging each other, and singing their heads off! At Greg Laurie's invitation to confess their sins and receive Jesus Christ as their Savior, 20,000 people streamed onto the field--so many that fire marshals had to stop them. There were 5,934 decisions for Christ.
Fifty thousand people praising God, exchanging anger, hatred, prejudice, lust, shame, pride, addictions and bad habits for forgiveness, unity, and joy, committing to serve God and love one another--50,000 people gathered in one place doing anything--NOT NEWS?

Two neat opportunities
1. HARVEST http://www.harvest.org/crusades/2011/anaheim/ Harvest just ended at Angels Stadium in Anaheim, California but if you weren't there, you still haven't missed it! You can watch all three nights of wonderful music, stories and interviews with people like Bethany Hamilton, who still wins championships for her surfing despite losing one arm to a shark, plus powerful, personable messages by Greg Laurie. (There will be another Harvest at 6 PM on Sept. 10 at the Dodger Stadium in L.A. See http://www.harvest.org/crusades/2011/los-angeles/get-involved/upcoming-meetings.html You need to get there 3-4 hours early, if you can.)
2. METAMORPHOSIS www.illustramedia.com has just produced a beautiful documentary, Metamorphosis: The Beauty and Design of Butterflies, filming the transition of a caterpillar becoming a butterfly inside the chrysalis, evidence of intelligent design. You can read about it, see a trailer, order the DVD and/or--if you live in Southern California-- attend the premiere screening in Fullerton on Sept.17.
