Greg Laurie is the senior pastor of Harvest Christian Fellowship with campuses in California and Hawaii. He began his pastoral ministry at the age of 19 by leading a Bible study of 30 people. Since then, God has transformed that small group into one of the largest churches in America.
In 1990, Laurie began holding large-scale public evangelistic events called Harvest Crusades. Since that time, more than 9.8 million people have participated in Harvest Crusades events in person or online around the world. In 2012, Laurie launched Harvest America, a nationwide event using the internet to simulcast live HD video to thousands of locations across the country. With an unprecedented 306,000 Americans in live attendance, Harvest America ranks among the largest presentations of the gospel in US history. More importantly, some 506,644 people have made professions of faith through these outreaches.
In 2020 and in partnership with Kingdom Story Company, Laurie premiered his first-ever cinematic crusade, A Rush of Hope, viewed by over 2 million people in its opening weekend.
In addition to speaking and assisting other ministries, Laurie has authored over 70 books including "Lennon, Dylan, Alice, & Jesus," "Billy Graham: The Man I Knew," "Johnny Cash: The Redemption of an American Icon," "Jesus Revolution," "Steve McQueen: The Salvation of an American Icon," "Live Love Fight," "Tell Someone," "The New Believer’s Bible," "Hope for Hurting Hearts," and his autobiography, "Lost Boy." The accompanying documentary film, Lost Boy: The Next Chapter, won eight awards at international film festivals. His 2013 film, Hope for Hurting Hearts features his story of trusting God through tragedy. His most recent film, Steve McQueen: American Icon, features the story of the famed actor finding salvation in Christ.
Whether speaking or writing, God has gifted Laurie with the ability to apply biblical principles to current events in a way that is relevant and easily understood by people of all ages, from all walks of life. The trademark of his sermons, books, or radio programs is a contemporary yet straightforward style and format.
Laurie has been married to Cathe Laurie for almost 50 years and he has two sons, Christopher and Jonathan. Christopher went to be with the Lord in 2008. Laurie and Cathe also have five grandchildren.
